OPERATION WRITE HOME (OWH) CARDS

Thought I would share a few pictures of the cards that I have been making in multiples to send to the OWH. I am a real fanatic on detailing and wanting to add extra embellishments but to sticking to the required guidelines, I have to have them just a little more plain than I would like too but then again the loved one receiving it from their loved one doesn't care that its fancy or not. Its the thought of them thinking about them and thats what is important. Did you know that Operation Write Home sent out 14,709 cards alone last month to our miltary? Is that not awesome? To date more than 800,000 have been made by crafters nationally and internationally. Not going to bother giving descriptions of the stamp names, cardstock use and so forth. I really am hoping you all will get on the band wagon and help make our servic men and women smile when they receive these wonderful boxes of cards that are gathered not only from USA but also internationally. The comments that are received by the loved ones and the military themselves makes you want to do more for them. Enjoy
