The Master list is HERE
It is so exciting to be part of the BLOG HOP for Operation Write Home. This is my first time to participate as a blogger so I hope I do everything right.
I love OWH and hope that each of you will consider making cards to send to our wonderful troops and also consider supporting with a monetary donation.
I chose sketch #112.
I keep my cards pretty simple and easy but as you can see, you can make some nice cards quite quickly with a sketch like this. Here are two cards for you with that sketch. For this first card I used the cute digital by Digital Delights. The sentiment is a freebie I picked up at OWH by Paula.
As I mentioned in a previous post, I have some candy to give away to one of you.
Here is a photo of that candy:
All you have to do is COMMENT and tell me you would like to be in the drawing. I would love for you to become a follower but it is not a requirement. I am trying to resist the temptation of the numbers game. If you like my work and you think I could give you some ideas, I would LOVE to have you as a follower. The random drawing will be on May 29 and I will announce the winner on May 30. ( So you will have to come back to my blog at least one more time - heehee).
Something to think about: To the world you are just one person but to one person you are the world.
Enjoy the blog hop and make sure you make some cards ASAP !
Now, back to the Hop List

I love that you did such different looks from the same sketch! They're both very special in their own way (how cool is that M&M paper?) and show how much you can do with a CAS card! Super job and I'm now following you for more simple inspirations. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat cards using one of my favorite sketches! I really like how you used an image on the vertical panel on the first card - I'll be casing that idea I think! The photo paper is a great idea too, hmmmm, I have a bit of that myself. Thanks for being part of the hop and for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards! I love the M&Ms :-) and thanks for the offer of the blog candy :-)
ReplyDeletegreat use of that sketch, I just love the use of that candy paper to make the "sweetness" card
ReplyDeleteI love making food cards. I need me some of that bright candy paper. I have never seen it. Love this card. Going to pin it
ReplyDeleteOh yea, loving these cards. Hugs
ReplyDeleteGreat sketch and I like the papers and images on both. The sentiment on the second is perfect for the paper.

Congrats on your blog -- and your participation in this year's hop! This was my first time as well. So, I totally understand not wanting to mess up!
ReplyDeleteCute cards -- each a great take on the sketch! I especially like the 3 little beads on the M&M card's sentiment. :)
Love both cards! The M&M card really impressed me...probably because I'm an M&M addict! Appreciate the chance for blog candy!
