Well we survived Hurricane Sandy. Lost power for a day and some tree damage
but we were lucky compared to others.
I made two cards for this challenge. One for a female and one for a male. I find
male cards hard to design. This sketch was a lot of fun. I plan on using
it again.

your input. You can find the OWH post here

Operation Write Home Sketch Challenge 144
Operation Write Home Midweek Challenge Celebrate Friendship
Hi,
I hope everyone is having a great week. It is hard to believe October is almost over.
This week OWH has challenged us to make friendship cards for our troops to send home.
I made this card using the Country Life Cricut cartridge. I cut the little pig and hen at 4 inches. I added liquid pearls to the pig , hen and sun for dimension. I also used glossy accents. The paper for the background is from the cricut celebrations paper pack. The ticket stamp is a Close to My Heart stamp and the little tag and sentiment is from teeny tag sentiments by My Creative Time. The finished card measures 5.50 by 4.25.

I love to get feedback, so please feel free to leave a comment.
Operation Write Home and Doodle Pantry Midweek Throwdown Color Challenge
OWH and Doodle Pantry have decided on a color challenge for this week’s throwdown. They challenged us to make cards using black & white with a pop
of red or green for our heroes to send home to their family and friends!
I used paper from Making Memories Wedding pack and a rose sticker from Recollections. I cut out the mini tag using My Creative Time teeny tag greetings. Hope you like my card.

Operation Write Home Blog Hop
I made these cards for Operation Write Home’s blog hop. We were to use a winter theme to make cards that our heroes could use to send home to their love ones. The first one is made using Close to My Heart winter sentiment and snowflakes from the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge.
I used liquid pearls to decorate the snowflakes and the ink was one of Megan’s little juicy stamp pads from Above Rubbies Studio. I love the way the colors match. I added a little stickles to the bottom snowflake and popped up the sentiment and center snowflake to add demension.
The second card was made using the same cartridge and stamp set. Only this time I used the OWH sketch 139 as my inspiration. The pattern paper is from Recollections. I used the liquid pearls again to add demension and sparkle and popped up the center snowflake.
I hope you are enjoying the card hop. Please consider joining us in making cards for our heroes. It is our way of saying thankyou and letting them know we care. Feel free to leave a comment. I love reading them.

Midweek Throwdown Color Challenge at OWH
This week at Operation Write Home there is a color challenge using Red & Green! We’re to make cards using the colors Red & Green for our heroes to send home to their family and friends! I used Cricut Snow Friends cartridge to make my snowman cut at 3 inches. I added a little stickles to the snowflake on his shirt to give it a little shimmer. The paper was from a holiday pack I got last year.
Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog Trains, Planes and Automobiles
Hi all,
I am loving this wonderful weather here in NJ. I was inspired to create this card for the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge when I watched some neighbor children skateboarding today. We were to create a card using a form of transportation. I did not want to do the usual modes of travel so I thought skateboarding would be a great alternative. Hope you enjoy it. I used the cricut cartridge Everyday Paper Dolls and CTMH stamp It’s Your Day for the sentiment.
