OWH Sketch 226

I have two versions of Operation Write Home's Sunday Sketch Challenge.

First, here's the sketch:

Here's my first card

I used Unity Stamps Harrison Hedgehog and colored him with Prisma Colored Pencils.

Paper from Little Yellow Bicycle's Vintage Summer.

Here's my second card

Paper Smooches Circle of Honor Eagle and Sentiment.

I again used Little Yellow Bicycle Vintage Summer.

OWH Memorial Day 2014 Bloghop

In celebration of National Military Appreciation Month, Operation Write Home is hosting its annual Memorial Day Bloghop! 

The requirements:

- use the colors red, white, and blue

- use and OWH sketch

- Sentiments featuring Missing You, Love, Thank You, Birthday, or AnyHero Mail

And here is my card:

Paper is Vintage Summer from Little Yellow Bicycle

Sentiment and image is Honor by Paper Smooches

Ink is Hero Arts Cup O' Joe and Butter Bar and VersaColor Scarlet

Embellishments are American Crafts cork star stickers

My card was based on OWH Sketch #178.

My Second Card

The paper is the same.  The sentiment is from Hero Arts OWH fundraiser stamp Missing You.

I used Sketch #127

A special thanks and utter gratitude to all our men and women and their families for their sacrifice and service to our country.  Remember why we celebrate this Memorial Day weekend, to remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice so that we may live free.

Be sure to continue hopping along, and leave some love for all the participants!

OWH Sketch #225

I don't usually have much mojo to complete the OWH Sketches on Sundays...afterall it's my Monday.  But I really want to complete my OWH box soon. I'm just not fond of doing multiples of the same card and with all the extracurriculars I'm involved in, I don't have the time to get a lot done.  Today I committed to doing the sketch (and make my current box and even 50 cards). With the mojo and motivation, I still struggled.  First I spilled some red wine and got some on the white card base.  Then when I was scoring the replacement base, I scored in the wrong place.  After all that, I completed the sketch.

Here's Sketch #225

A few OWH Cards

Here are a few cards I've created to fill my OWH box.

Sentiment and owl image is from Hero Arts OWH fundraiser stamp Lil' Hoot and the tree die is from Taylored Expressions.

The Squirrel and sentiment is from Paper Tray Ink 

All feathers are from Wplus9 Fanciful Feathers.

Cards from 6X6 Paper Pad

Confession: I've been a little obsessive about 6X6 paper pads lately.  All the matchey, pretty paper in one little package.  What's not to love?

Using Seongsook's tutorial and templates to work through a We R Memory Keepers Feelin' Groovy paper stack, I created these cards for Operation Write Home.
