My favorite part of Operation Write Home is that it allows me a good use for my compulsive creativity!
I like the sketch, and your story is awesome! I love how paper crafting brings people together!
A beautiful design and gorgeous papers! Love the patriotic theme! :) Thanks for sharing and Happy World Card Making Day fellow craft friend! HUGS
Such a great card for the soldiers and for your friend to save. The thing I love most about Operation Write Home is all the inspiration that they provide to us in the way of sketches, tutorials, blog hops, Sandy's videos. I'm a better crafter because of OWH.
Love your card. It's stunning. What I love most about OWH is that now someone gets to enjoy my cards rather than me hording them away in a shoebox. I also love how happy it makes our heroes. There will be some grinning when they see your wonderful card.
My favorite part of OWH? Being able to do something, be it a little something, using my favorite hobby!!! I like you card also, very patriotic!
The sense of community within OWH is awesome!! And I love how you used the sketch.
Beautiful patriotic card! I love everything about OWH, from the tutorials, the community, supporting our troups, and supporting our country. Happy WCMD!
Love the layering and the dp colors.

Nice patriotic feel. I love that I can spend money and time on crafting and it goes to a good cause. Makes the investment worthwhile and brings smiles to others.
Very nicely designed card. Great layering.
I love the patriotic colors and flag. this is one of my favorites for the day. Love the plaid and polka dots.
My favorite part of the OWH is the generosity of all of the crafter's who spend time and effort to support our troops with a great way to reach out to their families. Beautiful card.
Very cute card. My favorite part is the point of the operation. It gives the soldiers a way to stay in touch with their families. Send them cards for special reasons. It's a special thing to be apart of.
I love how you left the flag uncolored! My favorite part of OWH is knowing that I helped someone reach out to someone they love while they are so far from home.
I love the image. The sketch is great too. My favorite part of OWH is helping the soldiers keep in touch with their families and to be a part of a group of great cardmakers.
Very cute card! My favorite part of OWH is that it's a win-win-win. We get to share a craft we love, deployed troops get to know we're thinking of them, and families back home get a tangible reminder of their hero. Happy WCMD!
I love that Operation Write Home is a win win for me. I get to do what I love and contribute to an great cause. April
My favorite part of OWH-- wow, helping our troops Yes! But also Sandy and her great support of the cause. Thanks for your support of OWH!
You used my sketch!! :) Seriously, awesome card. I should pull out that Unity set for some Anyhero notes. :)
Great sketch and card. Besides the obvious reason of supporting our troops I like all the card making tips and ideas.

I love this classic card!! Thanks for your beautiful sample - it is so inspiring!
I love your patriotic card! Fun papers and wonderful image! I make cards for OWH myself and feel honored to share my interest and card-making skills with members of the military as a small token of my appreciation for what they do everyday.
The inked edges add such a nice vintage to this. You can't go wrong with patriotic as far as I'm concerned. Thanks for joining in the hop today and supporting OWH!
Very bright and vivid. Love red white and blue, the flag is great. Thank you for sharing and supporting OWH.
Favorite part? Seeing awesome inspiration like your card!
I like those patterned papers together and how you left the flag image black/white. My favorite part is the smiles that OWH card makers get to create between friends and families.
I really love your card! All of the elements play off of each other very well! My favorite part of OWH is having a great network of crafters who all share the love of supporting our Heros and card making :)
Sarah, I love your card! The DP is beautiful! My first fvorite thing about OWH is knowing in a small way I am helping our heroes. The next favorite thing is all the inspiring and encouraging friendships I've made since becoming an OWHer.
The papers, layering and inked edges really make this a great card. My favorite thing about OWH is knowing that I can help our heroes in some way through something I enjoy. The OWH family is full of spectacularly talented, encouraging and loving crafters.
love the patriotic colors!
My favorite part of OWH is our founder and executive director, Sandy. Way to go, gal!
