OWH Card and Big News!!

 


The challenge at Operation Write Home this week was Anything Goes (except glitter.) I will tell you about my card alittle later, but first:
OWH is one of the finalists in JoAnn's Craft for a Cause!! Between now and early December, voting will be going on between OWH and two other worthy causes to determine how JoAnn's distributes thousands of dollars to help these charities. As often as you can, please go to JoAnn's and vote. Think of the thousands of soldiers overseas and their families here missing them that this could help!

I know today is a bad day to be begging for your vote:) If you are like me, you are so sick of the political ads and can't wait for tomorrow to be here and those to be done. But this is a great fun thing to vote for, so thanks for taking the time (over and over) to vote!

The card above was inspired by a tutorial at Stamp TV. Stamp a background with words in black or brown on a neutral cardstock. Emboss a flower or vine type stamp (or anything you like) on top of the words. Sponge ink over and around the image. I added a MS vine edge punch and layered for the finished card.
