I just sent off a box of 95 cards to Operation Write Home. It makes me so happy every time I do that. For those of you who do not know about this wonderful organization, they provide handmade cards for our wonderful heros in the military. I have included the website below. Please check it out. If you are like me, you make way more cards than you can ever use (I am addicted to challenges !). It is great to send them off to the men and women in the military so that they can use them to send back to their loved ones.
Okay on to the cards (in separate posts). Even though most of the cards I send to OWH are blank inside, I always include some for our heros expressing our gratitude for their service so I made these two cards expressly for that. Images are by Stamping Boutique. OWH website:
