You Go Girl !
Operation Write Home is celebrating World Card Making Day with a Mega Bloghop.
Our theme is Thank You cards. I made one to thank a female deployed hero (technically heroine). Definition of heroine: a woman who is admired for great or brave acts or fine qualities. Our military women are definitely worthy of admiration and thanks!
A few years ago, I received a breast cancer awareness set by a.muse studio. This sentiment was one of the stamps. I thought it would be fun to stamp it (and emboss it) onto pink camo paper. The T-shirt die is MFT. The star die cut is Verve. Embossing folder is Cuttlebug.
No, it does not say "Thank You" but I will be expressing my thanks on the inside.
Here is the sketch I used - going way back to #14:
Hope you enjoy the BLOGHOP.
I appreciate all your comments.
I love the sentiment and the camo paper. That is a fun idea!
ReplyDeleteLove love this card. The paper and sentiment are my favorites. So going to "borrow" this idea. Big thank you to you. Hugs~♥

ReplyDeleteMarsha, this card is wonderful! It's so vibrant and fun. I have a friend who is a breast cancer survivor who would love this. I may have to pick up that die. Blog hops are always so expensive for me!!! TFS

Pink camo. Nice change of pace. Go girl!
ReplyDeleteCool tie die shirt. I love that die. I have it and will have to give that a try.
ReplyDeleteI love the t-shirt..I actually have a brown t-shirt with "fight like a girl" in pink. Never thought of using it for a hero card, but it works!!! Great take on the sketch too.
ReplyDeleteSaw your card on the OWH blog hop & I had to stop in - that pink camo really caught my eye! I love the whole card; it's so different!
