Welcome to my stop on the Operation Write Home Bunny Hop! You should have arrived here from Hambo's Talk to the Ham! If you just landed here out of the blue, and you want to start at the beginning of the hop, here's a link to the Stars & Stamps Blog. Today's my sister-in-law's birthday, so I made a birthday card for her. Happy birthday, Phyllis!! (She's an Army Mom too!) The OWH East Coast Shipper wants me to remind you of these deadlines:
(The OWH East Coast Shipper also wants me to remind you it's OK to send Christmas cards early. That deadline is October 31.) If you're wondering about what kinds of cards to send to your shipper, check this page: Current Needs. Very helpful information there!! For example, we don't need cards that say, "Wish You Were Here!" or "You're Invited to a Barbecue!" Cards with these sentiments are only good for comic relief for your shipper. Sometimes that's important. Now that you've nearly made it to the end of the post, let's talk about BLOG CANDY!!! Leave a comment on my blog for a chance to win this T-Shirt. I'll use the "random integer generator" to pick a winner on Monday. |
Your next stop on the hop is the awesome Jan!! |

ReplyDeleteDixie, are you serious about sending Christmas cards now? I was saving all my fall/Christmas cards until at least the end of the summer!
ReplyDeleteBTW, HB to your SIL. And, if we don't win the t-shirt is there somewhere we can order one and pay for it?
Now, after all this time, MY wonderful East Coast Shipper, you tell me I can't invite all of our heroes over for a BBQ? :)
ReplyDeleteLove all the layering on this card. I may need to CASE this because my scrap pile is starting to takeover everything.

ReplyDeleteJust love these cards as I am a new initiate to the "Operation Write Home." My son just joined the Army Reserve 2 weeks ago and just got his dog tags and checking account. He ships out on July 12 and I am trying to get ready for it. This gives me something to work on in the mean time while I get used to the idea of my son in the military.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm a proud Mom of a Future Soldier.
I love your mix of patterned papers, and the simple font of the sentiment!
ReplyDeleteI love the clean and simple lines and great choice of colors.

Thanks so much for all of the hours you spend for our heroes! We are so lucky to have you and the other wonderful shippers that do so much for OWH! I love the card and for showing that all of the cards don't have to be perfectly flat although it's wise not to overdo it on these cards.

Happy birthday (belated) to Phyllis!! I think it must be a lot easier to be a military wife than an Army mom. It's one thing when it's your husband...but when it's your child???? SCARY!! My heart (along with my my utmost appreciation and respect) goes out to her.
ReplyDeleteLove your card and love this hop!
