OWH World Cardmaking Day Blog Hop





What a great cause!  God bless all of our heros, their families, and their friends.  My card is based on this sketch and, of course, has a wintry theme!  You have to turn the sketch sideways in your head.  (Most of them are that way naturally for me!!)

Be sure to check out the next post in my blog for my special story and some candy.

    Great card! I love how you were able to work some bling in safely. I forgot about the shimmery papers! It is hard for me to skip glitter, this is a great way to feed that hunger! Thank you for sharing.
