Happy World Card Making Day! {Operation Write Home}

Well, folks, it is World Card Making Day and I don't know about you, but I plan on celebrating by, ummm.... MAKING CARDS!!! But, we all need some inspiration, right? So...it just so happens that the folks at Paper Crafts Magazine and the folks at May Arts have the SAME cause in mind for this exciting day - Operation Write Home. OWH allows card makers to create blank handmade cards so they can send them home to their families. Think of just HOW excited a little girl will get when she opens a card from her Daddy! Think about that husband who sits at home worrying about his wife out in the field and gets just a bit of a reminder that she will be okay when he receives a handmade card from her in the mail. These are real people and they need to be connected and this is a truly wonderful way to help them make these meaningful connections with home. I have created this Christmas card with May Arts ribbon and Skipping Stones Design stamps to send to OWH. I hope you will join in by creating a card today and sending it in. For more information check out the Operation Write Home website!
