OWH Memorial Day Sketch Blog Hop
Hello! Hope you are having an enjoyable Memorial Day Weekend! I'm excited to be part of the Operation Write Home Memorial Day Sketch Blog Hop! The sketch I selected is #30. You can find a collection of 100+ sketches on the OWH website....and plenty of other inspiration and information on how to donate your handmade cards for our deployed troops to write home on.
I flipped the sketch upside down, grabbed some coordinating papers from the Green Boutique collection by Paper Trey Ink and the Flowers for Mimi stamp by Penny Black. Cardstock is from Paper Trey Ink in white and New Leaf. Sentiment from Hero Arts is stamped on a shape cut with a Nestibility die. I colored Mimi with copic markers, added a bit of twine, and...DONE!
Thanks for stopping by to take a look! Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!
Blessings,
Shari B
