OWH card bowl
In honour of the Super Bowl there is a card bowl happening at Operation Write Home. You can see details here.Here's the link, I hope! Tonight we have been asked to create a card using the colours, logo, or whatever of the team you are rooting for. I'm in, as in Seahawks 12th man. So I chose to use the Seahawks colours. I didn't want to make a football theme card though since when this gets to the Middle East it will likely not be football season any longer. So, I chose to dress up my Ciara stamp in Seahawks colours. I don't like my sentiment on it because I'm reorganizing my stamp area from one location to another and I can't find my other sentiment stamps. And I'm realizing I need more that say Love, Miss You, etc. Time to do a sentiment search on-line I guess. Anyways, here is my sample, with a sentiment that I will likely change. When I adhered the rest of it I thought it would work but there is too much blue showing and I'm going to have to change it to make me happy!

OWH Our Daily Bread Design for January
I still haven't figured out how to edit my blog, how to input a decent photo, how to edit things to make sense but.....I wanted to link my card for the Our Daily Bread Design for OWH. This challenge is to use stripes.
I co-teach a daily bible study class for teens. One of those young men suffered the loss of his father on Christmas Day. It was a sudden loss with no prep that may have made it a bit easier, although losing your father as a teenage boy on Christmas Day to death is not ever going to be easy. That said we start class again tomorrow and I thought of bringing one card for all to sign but decided a bunch of cards would be better. I decided on simple cards with no embellishment. Several used striped paper. I chose the stripes because they are masculine and they would help meet the ODBD challenge to pay for shipment of 2 boxes of cards for the troops. So, here it is, simple but with love to a young man who suffered a horrible loss. I'm significantly older than a teenager but still have both my parents and am so grateful for that.
Sorry for all the mess in the background. Like I said, I still don't know how to edit photos etc.
