Operation Write Home Blog Hop

I'm joining in on the Operation Write Home Blog Hop! If you're here from Jennifer at Life of Reilly, you're at the right spot! Regular follower or here from someone else? Be sure to join in and take a look at all the other great artists on the hop! You can start at the beginning by clicking on the image below!




Our challenge for this hop was to create a "Missing You" themed card. When I got to the store to look around for some inspiration, I couldn't decide between two different embellishment packages. So... I did two (but you'll need to scroll down to the last post to see the second one). They came out pretty different even though I used the same paper line for both!




For this card, I used: DCWV Lemon Flower Stack, Colorbok Flea Market Acetate Glitter Stickers, Recollections alphas, and the stamp on the inside is Recollections Brackets & Flourishes. Plus some cs and ribbon from my stash and spring green ink.


 Thanks so much for stopping at my blog! Feel free to wander around- be sure to check out gallery photos on my Facebook page!

Next up: Head over to Erica at My Cricut Craft Room.

Have a great holiday weekend!

  5. Nicely done! I like how you layered the paper on top of itself. That has never, once occurred to me. What a great technique! Thank you for participating in the OWH hop today.
