Operation Write Home: Memorial Day Sketch Blog Hop

Hi everyone!

We are thrilled to join the kind folks at Operation Write Home for a Memorial Day Blog Hop.

Operation Write Home is a wonderful organization that collects and sends handmade cards for soldiers and their families, which they can use to keep in touch. We think it's a great cause and a fantastic way for crafters to share their talents. 

One of the things we especially love is Operation Write Home has created more than 100 sketches (or blue prints) to create cards from. This makes it a whole lot easier for crafters to share those talents!

In fact, some of our Creative Team members used those sketches to make some cards for the troops that we get to share with you today.

Ashley made this fun and cute card with our Happy Birthday Seal stamp set. She drew inspiration from sketch #119.

Teri also used the Happy Birthday Seal on her card. She instead drew inspiration from sketch #83.

We think it's pretty neat that Ashley and Teri used the same stamp set but created two totally different cards by using different sketches! Love that.

Speaking of love, we sure love this card made by Laura O'Donnell.

Laura created it with our I Love You Seal and sketch #51. How fun would this be to get in the mail?!
