You're Super



I made 6 of these cards for my OWH box. The pre colored image and sentiment are from Doodle Pantry. The papers are from Bo Bunny.

I love you


I am finishing up 12 of these cards for my OWH box. I used 2 sheets of the red Bo Bunny paper. I cut the sheet of hearts paper (Authentique) in 2" strips so I could make this many cards. I really liked this paper and I cut it up the first day I bought it. It seems like paper gets more expensive all the time. I paid $1.29 for it. I searched through my stash and found the red paper. I thought it was perfect to go with the heart paper. The reverse side was not to my liking. The heart and sentiment will be popped up. I am hoping this card will be considered suitable to send to a guy.

More I Miss Your Face.



 
 
 
A few more cards using sketch #174 from OWH. I modified the design a little

Hey! I miss you



This is Operation Write Home sketch #174


The circle sentiment is a die cut from My Minds Eye. It had a scalloped edge which I cut off with my Nestabilities. I bought 6 of these month ago and paid $.50 each because I liked them so much. Then I couldn't figure out how to use them! I will be making 6 cards.

Catch a Wave












For the first 3 cards I used a digi from Stampin Up. I didn't know they had digis until I paid them a call online. It cost me all of $1.10. It is an extreme surfer and he looks very agile on that board. I sent several of the last card in my last box to OWH but I made some more for the next box. The sentiment is a digi from Create With TLC. Altogether I have 34 of these cards so I guess that will be it for surfer cards this year.

Card number 3 is linked to this weeks OWH midweek challenge to use something in threes. I used 3 strands of twine. The last card also works with the 3 surf boards. I cut the bottom from a sheet of paper and each of the 3 cuts had 3 boards. Worked out perfect for me.

Frogs at play







I guess it is time to update my blog. Don't ask me why I waited so long. The frogs are a piece of Provo Craft clip art. Six each of the first 2 for my OWH box. The last one will go in my personal stash. I used an embossing border on the last card. The inside edge left a mark on the paper that I didn't like so I made only one.

Sealed with a kiss.





A couple of versions using this Hero Arts stamp. They went out in my last OWH box. I need to make some more. I really like this stamp.

Because I love you







Trying to use up what seems like an endless 6"x6" pad of this butterfly paper. Still have more. This is one of my favorite OWH go to sketches #142.

Wild Animals







The zebras are a stamp from Embossing Arts. The first 2 cards were stamped on white, the last one on a colored paper. The little strip of zebra paper is from Bo Bunny. The background papers are all old Basic Grey papers. The embelishments are Candi dots.



This card made it onto the OWH Facebook page but not my blog. The tiger is clip art, the background papers are Bo Bunny
