OWH World Card Making Day Blog Hop!



Welcome to another hop of inspiration! If you have never seen anything about Operation Write Home, now is a great time to go check it out. It is such a wonderful way for us crafters to give back in a meaningful way to the soldiers and their families for the sacrifices they make for each and every one of us every day. AND it is World Card Making Day so people all over the world are celebrating the joys of this fantastic hobby! So, join us in making cards, and think about donating them to OWH.


Here is my wintery themed card! Funny thing is, it actually snowed a couple inches the day I made this, which was Oct. 4th, 2012. Yes, just 2 days ago we got snow. I was not really ready for that and I wore sandals, a t-shirt, and jeans to town and had to brush a couple inches of snow off my car at lunchtime. I hope that it has melted by the time this post is live!
But this little snowbunny looks so sweet, I had to use it for this hop. I left this blank so it can be used for anything :) I used the Bonus Sketch from 9-3-12, and I would post a pic of the sketch but blogger won't take PNG files!
