OWH Memorial Day Blog Hop!!

Welcome to my blog in celebration of Memorial Day AND the Bloghop for Operation Write Home.

First of all... Happy Memorial Day! I hope you are enjoying your weekend so far.  I, on the other hand will be getting ready for a trip to DC for work.  I actually leave on Memorial Day. I hope to have some time to visit the WWII memorial.  I have someone going with me and she also wants to go so I think we will have time to accomplish the side trip.

Because I had several weeks to prepare for this, I have a couple of cards for this blog hop.  The challenge is/was thank you cards using one of the OWH sketches. They are simple cards from this simple sketch.

This is sketch #9

And my version of it, very simple, just like the sketch

Then another rendition of sketch #9

with the exception of the paper(s) the stamps are Stampin Up!


And for my Any Hero card...... no sketch..... just a card..

Have a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend..... enjoy the OWH blog hop!!

Midweek Throwdown May 22 2013

It's been awhile since I've done anything.  Things have been busy the last few weeks.  I had to finish up a blog I did for my great-nephew (for Flat Stanley) and work has been busy.  I also have been trying to work on my blog post for Memorial Day.

But here is my submission for the mid-week throwdown.

This is a Stampin Up punch (Posey Punch).

Not much of a card.... but I wanted to do something.  I used a different camera too..... and not familiar with the settings. 

Catch some of you over the weekend on the Memorial Day Blog Hop
