OWH: Memorial Day Blog Hop

               

Welcome to the Operation Write Home Memorial Day Blog hop!



You should have found yourself on the path coming from  Cindy 's blog, if not, start from the beginning where you can find a ton of creative cards starting off at the   OWH Stars and Stamps    blog! ! Please share some love, as everyone loves a good comment or two.

I actually made two cards using the theme MISSING YOU. I decided to go with Kids cards as they are in frequent need.

Cards are made with DCWV patterned paper, and Recollections, and the kids are soft spoken chipboard. Letter stamps come from the $1 bin at Mike's.





Please keep on hopping on to   Gina's    blog to see what she has instore for you... Hold on tight and be ready to be inspired!!!

These are both great kid cards, which are always perfect and in demand for OWH. I like that you popped the chip board kids off the base. It gives them nice dimension. Thanks for supporting OWH and hopping this weekend.

It took me a minute to figure out the Mike thing. Made me laugh out loud. Think I like toe boy card better. That LO would make a great sketch. I am partial to plaids so the dp is awesome. TFS!!!
