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!!

Nice CAS cards.
Hope you get the time to see the Memorial while you're in DC. Great set of cards, always interesting to see how different each card can be while using the same sketch.

Such a pretty card. Thanks for joining in the hop today.
Nice cards!!! I think on the second card (I really like the flowers) I would have the sentiment done so it would stand out more...... The third card is great also!!! Sometimes it's hard to choose a "favorite"!!! Thank you for supporting OWH!!!
Stunning clean and simple cards. I love that type myself. And, they look so lovely. Sometimes I think less is best.
Enjoy DC. There's so much to do. Hope you get time to see a lot. The cards are great.
That first card is simple yet stunning. I love the Hero sentiment I use it much on Any Hero cards. thank you for sharing and supporting OWH

Three great cards. Love the inking around the edges on the first card. I really like the embossing used on the border and the colors of the second card. My favorite is your patriotic card.
