While all the versions are wonderful...I just love the first...it has so much visual pop! WTG!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards, so bright and patriotic!
ReplyDeleteI like the busy background. Everything pops!
ReplyDeleteThese are all very nice. I like the bold colors.
ReplyDeleteI don't think the first one is too busy, there is enough white on the sentiment to make that pop.
ReplyDeleteI love the first one, it's my favorite. They all are great cards.
ReplyDeleteWell hmmmm...I kept looking back and forth between the two versions and I think I'm joining the "I like the first card" club! I'm also a fan of Doodle Pantry like you are, but have never used their papers, just their black line images to color.
ReplyDeleteGreat paper choices and I love your sentiment.
ReplyDeleteWhat a kind and generous heart you have. This is really a great card. We like to see your wonderful art each week here at Word Art Wednesday. Thank you Marsha, so much, for sharing it with us. God Bless, Carole
ReplyDeleteMarsha, I love the busy one!! A great group of cards :o)
ReplyDeletebeautiful cards - thanks for supporting OWH

I love both versions. I don't think the first is too busy, but I always have problems with the red, white, and blue challenges because so many of the patriotic papers do have a lot going on them! Great job and yay on the multiples! So many people will be so happy!
ReplyDeleteOh Marsha, these are so wonderful. I love all the colors!! Perfect for this weekend- or any time. =) Love those tiny stars!!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sarah T
Wow, what an amazing set of cards!!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, I like the ones with the solid red and solid blue background the best!
ReplyDeleteyou placed the designed letters on the cards - great gift idea :)
ReplyDeleteI think all your cards are lovely, even the one you called "busy".
ReplyDeleteEach design is wonderful, but I do like the "busy" one best, too ! I also like that you used tiny star brads in the corners.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card..thanks for joining us at Sister Act Card Challenge..Sue DT x
ReplyDeleteNice way of doing the card with the same basic theme (I get bored doing the same exact thing)!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Marsha! I love the clean, neat design. I love the first one and the patterns complement each other so well. Kudos for writing all those AnyHero notes! Enjoy the hop!
ReplyDeleteI like both styles. And that sketch - is great for so many things. Got to make a note of that one. :-)

WOW - you go girl. Now that's a way to make some cards! Thanks for sharing at the OWH Blog.
ReplyDeleteI liked all the versions of your card. Great use of digi papers and sentiment.
ReplyDeleteThe first one may be busy but the matting sets off the sentiment nicely. Great work!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful use of the patriotic papers. Both designs are fantastic!
ReplyDeleteFabulous cards, I love that digi sentiment and papers!
ReplyDeleteGreat variety and all so nice but I really like all of the pattern on the first one. :) Thanks for playing along with us at Cuttin adn Stampin!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome card and digi! I like the first "busy" card, thanks for sharing, and I'm sure these cards will encourage our Heroes.

Nice sentiment - I think I have this one too. You've inspired me to pull it out and use it!
ReplyDeleteAdorable project! Love the colors. Thanks for playing at Crafting from the heart. Hope to see you next challenge. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteI like the busy one! LOL That sentiment is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteGreat Hero cards! Gotta say, I love the busy patterns of the first card.
ReplyDeleteI love all the versions of your card!

All three versions are bold and bright and eye catching! I most loved the mix of patterns on the first me. Always great to see someone successfully use multiple patters! Very inspiring
ReplyDeleteSome of our military are going to be very happy when they receive these cards.
ReplyDeletePersonally, I like the busy one the best! I had to go back and look at those brads. I didn't even realize they were brads at first. I love them!
ReplyDeleteHi Marsha! Some great ideas for anyhero cards. I might be CASEing some for an Any Hero card signing I will be doing in June! Have a great day and thanks for your support of OWH!
ReplyDeleteI never think to use digi paper. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI am with so many others--I like the first card better--it just makes me Happy!! Thanks for supporting OWH.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite sentiment for AnyHero cards! I love the first card with the bright papers - it made me smile :-) Kudos to you for making NINE more - WOW!
ReplyDeleteI liked the "original" but think that for readability I like the more solid versions. Thanks for supporting OWH and writing all that Any Hero mail.

Fantastic use of the sketch. I am partial to the stars background. How very patriotic! Thanks for all you do for OWH.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great group of cards Marsha. I don't mind the busier background at all because you left plenty of background around the sentiment I think it works fine but the solids are very nice too. Great digi's are such a big help when it comes to making a batch of Any Hero mail. Thanks for joining in the hop and supporting OWH! Hope you have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI actually love the "busy" card! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteDoodle Pantry has some of the best digi's out there, I love the paper choices and that sentiment is perfect!!! Super great card.
ReplyDeleteI almost used this set myself - love it! Your cards turned out beautifully!!! Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI love your any hero cards - the digi sentiment is perfect for those!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards Marsha, the colors are very vibrant!
ReplyDeleteThese are so fun! I do like the solid background better. So nice!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful layers and wonderful embellishments!
ReplyDeleteGreat Card!
ReplyDeleteLove the paper colors and designs!
Font is so fun!
Great interpretation of the sketch! Love your treatment of the sentiment.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and patriotic!
ReplyDeleteI like both versions - the first one isn't so busy that the sentiment gets lost. Beautiful AnyHero cards!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful cards! I'm sure they will be much appreciated! Thanks for joining us at Love to Scrap
ReplyDelete11 Grandkids!!! How can you post anything but pictures of them????? Beautiful photo background on your blog and really sweet cards.
ReplyDeleteThese are all fantastic. I love all the red, white and blue and the sentiment.
ReplyDeletelovely lovely cards!!! I have to check out d. pantry!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards!
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome...so nice and bold.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of cards--even the busy one!
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful digi sentiment and patterned paper. So bright and vivid. I really like the first one. Great collection of AnyHero cards. Thanks for supporting OWH.
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for stars and stripes. Super card.
ReplyDeleteThank you for including the sketch-helps us newbies!
ReplyDeleteFor everyday I might agree about the first one being busy but for this holiday...some extra pop is ok with me...so I like it.
Gee I wish that sentiment was available in rubber!
Thanks for making and sharing!

ReplyDeleteWonderful set of cards, love your simple but awesome design.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome way of saying thank you for their service. Thank you for joining us in our blog challenge at SweetStamps.com
ReplyDeleteI love the first one as well as all the "clones". Excellent cards!
ReplyDeleteI love this card! It's so bold! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteAll the cards are great, but I liked your original one best. It is bright and cheerful and so patriotic, how could anyone NOT like it.
ReplyDeleteI will have to check into that digi sentiment
ReplyDeleteThese are great cards and will certainly be appreciated by our heroes! Great job!
ReplyDeleteLove these cards. I use the star brads too. The digi does make a nice simple, clean card. Following you on bloglovin'.
ReplyDeleteLove the cards Marsha but the toned down one is my favourite. I know the servicemen will love them and appreciate them all!
ReplyDeleteEven though it is busy, I still like the first card, but the rest on the solid background are really sharp too.
