Another OWH Challenge Card - Scallops

This week the Wendesday Challenge from Operation Write Home was to make a card with scallops.  I was having so much fun I made two.  These are thank-you cards that will be sent to OWH for the troops.  I used the same materials for both cards. GinaK Designs Kraft card stock for the card base, Stampin Up Early Expresso Ink, Hero Arts sentiment, and Kioshi Paper Pack from Basic Grey (love Basic Grey paper packs).  OWH card sketch 58 was used for one of my cards. 

Sketch #58

Operation Write Home Cards

Last week I mailed off 18 cards to OWH for their Spring Thaw Challenge.  I came up with three layouts that I found on different blogs and made several of each design.  I sent 6 of each to OWH and the rest will be used for swaps.  I entered this first card in the OWH Mid-Week Challenge for an "Anything Goes" type card.

 I prefer to keep my cards simple, I am not into the multiple layers, lots of bling type cards--not my style.  I make cards to relax, so keeping it simple is the best for me.  Plus I am just not that creative--too much brain power required.  In addition, the shippers at OWH prefer cards that are not too bulky and blingy for the troops, that way they can get more cards into a box. 

Next week I am participating in my first ever OWH Blog Hop.  I have already made my card for the hop and I have some card making stash selected to giveaway.  More to come. 

Have a great Saturday!


See ya!!
