Thank you...MWT and sketch 178

Today I have a dual duty card. It's for the Midweek Throwdown and sketch 178, both for Operation Write Home. The MWT calls for masculine cards and I managed to get four out of this piece of double sided Moxxie DP. The orange, brown and green are Bazzill and the white is card stock. The stud embellishments are from Michaels. The sentiment is by Stampendous and stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa.

Thanks for taking a look.

Miss You

Today's card was a bit labor intensive, but I didn't mind at all. It's worth the work to send a card I'm proud of. Don't you think? There are eight of these for my next OWH box.

I used some Moxxie Zoofari patterned paper and some teal and orange Bazzill. The white is card stock. The top layer of the star is done with Nesties while the other two layers were done by hand. I was so glad to use some of the Studio 18 orange rhinestones I've had forever. For the sentiment, I used a Paper Smooches stamp.

 

Do you ever buy Bazzill or card stock paper to match your patterned paper and have leftovers you will never use? That's what happened to me with that odd orange paper. I'm not sure I'll be able to even use it for Halloween cards.

 

Enjoy yourself today!

Double Thanks

This card was fun to make. I enjoyed flipping the colors around to add some variety.

 

It uses two different embossing folders, one with stars and one with all kinds of thank yous. The star is cut from some Moxxie paper. The dark blue is DeNami and the red (I promise it's not that orange in person!) is some I had on hand. The sentiment is Inkadinkado.

 

 

Enjoy your day!

Thank You

Here is my first card for the Any Hero card making party I hope to have this year at our local veterans' home. I made six of them. Why six, you may be asking. It's because I had six of those blue buttons! My mom was cleaning out her sewing/crafting/office and gave me tons of buttons. Some of them are still on their cardboard so it will be easy to know how many to make of certain cards lol.

 

This card has my mom all over it. She gave me the button, the paper and was with me when I used my Michaels gift card to buy the Inkadinkado thank you stamp set. The patterned paper is Yankee Doodle by Moxxie and the dark blue is from DeNami embossed with the Cuttlebug Stars folder. I used Recollections embossing powder on the sentiment.

 

 

This card also fits in with the ODBD challenge for the month of January. Happy Monday!
