Oldie Moldie Monday

Monday - time to show some love for some old supplies.  I found pieces of this paper.  There was matching card stock with the patterned paper.  I managed to get three more cards out of the paper and never used any of that card stock.  I think they will be great cards for Operation Write Home.

The top two sentiments are from Hero Arts.  The last sentiment is from Technique Tuesday.

Remember to show some love for your old supplies.  They still make great cards.

Enjoy your Monday - dang - a five day work week.

Seize the Sketch

Did you hear the squeeling of the die cutter as I slid into the last hours of the sketch challenge at Seize the Sketch.  I have liked this sketch since it was posted and decided I wanted to do it before the challenge ended.

It took two attempts.  I did not like the die cut I first decided to use - it was too small - so thus the 2nd card was born.  Here is my card.

The stamp is from Techniques Tuesday.  This entire set of sentiments in this set are great for Operation Write Home stamps.  The paper is from American Crafts - Dear Lizzy collection.  I think you will see more of this paper in upcoming Oldie Moldie Monday posts.

Here is my second card.  The die cut was too small for the sketch and of course I did not have enough of the darker paper for the sketch card.  This stamp is a $1 stamp I bought somewhere.

Enjoy the remainder of your Sunday.

Oldie Moldie Monday

Only one card for Oldie Moldie Monday.  I have been trying to catch up on birthday cards and things around the house.

This card will go in my next Operation Write Home box.

Enjoy your Monday.

Wanna Sketch, Oldie Moldie Monday, Basic Grey

It is once again Oldie Moldie Monday - time to show some love to your old supplies.  I have been working on cards using the same 6 x 6 pad from Basic Grey over the last couple weeks.  This week I made a couple cards for Operation Write Home and a card for my own supply.

I based the card for my own use on the sketch from Wanna Sketch.  It is the first time I have played along on this sketch challenge.  Here is the sketch.

Actually not only is this oldie moldie paper, the flowers have been around for a couple years and I have had this sentiment stamp - from a set from Technique Tuesday for years.  I really like the set.  Great for my use and also for Operation Write Home cards.

Here are some simple cards for Operation Write Home.  Some Hero will be able to send this home to their kids.

Everyone have a great Monday.  Just think we are four days away from Friday.
