Here is my card; it is a coupon holder, actually. I made a space to write a short note on the back of the card. I used some of the exclusive stamp sets from Simon Says Stamp, one of our sponsors for the Blog Hop. I enjoy making cards for OWH; and especially ones for children. I know it has to be difficult for families when one of them has to be away. And hopefully a card from Mommy or Daddy will brighten a little one's day! My family truly appreciates everything that our armed forces personnel do to protect our freedom, and I teach my children about the sacrifices they make every day on our behalf.
Need help getting started making cards for OWH? Did you know they have a whole bunch of super cute digis that companies have donated? How cool is that? There's something for everybody there! Here's the page:
And here are the guidelines and how to get started. So, go get started! (Oh, finish the blog hop first!) :-)
