Operation Write Home Challenge #161


Happy Sunday everyone.  I hope everyone is cozy this wintery day.  Here in Western Colorado we have signs of spring, then last night it snowed a couple inches of snowed!  Oh well, a legit excuse to make cards!  I'm in the need of more Hero cards, and I think today's is just the ticket.  Possibly a bit busy, but it works for me.  Have  a great day!



P.S. Thanks to all who commented, somehow my original post earlier was lost.  Yikes!

President's Weekend VCMP #1

Happy President's Day weekend everyone!  The wonderful, ever inspiring folks over at Operation Write Home are hosting a Virtual Card Making Party all weekend long.  The creative team will be challenging us to make 10 different cards, WOW!  The first stop on the party train is Erika @ scrappinintervention.blogspot.  She challenged us to use zig zag prints.  Oh, the energy, what a great way to jump start the party!  Hope you have a great weekend in whatever you do!

OWH Sketch Challenge #159

I'm so excited, I bought another 6x6 pad.  I think I could get addicted to these!  I love the script background that already had the pink floral pattern "stamped" on it.  So easy to pull out the color.   At any rate, although I didn't follow the sketch exactly, I was pleased with the outcome just as well.  Best wishes for a great week!

OWH Sketch Challenge #158

I just love last week's sketch, so versatile, especially if you have a wonderful rectangular digi, like the one I found at Paula's blog.  Although the east coast got hammered with a ton of snow, Western Colorado is warming up touch a touch.  I'm already thinking spring!
