Took The Challenge - ROCKED The Challenge

Hello out there!  Recently I have been showing Thank You cards I have made for a challenge at Operation Write Home.  The challenge is to make 1 Any Hero thank you card for each day in May, and write a message in each one.  I took the challenge - and I ROCKED that challenge!  Here is card #31 and a few other thank you cards that are part of the challenge.

Card # 31!

May Challenge of Thank You's

I  am participating in the Operation Write Home May challenge to write an Any Hero thank you card per day.  I am up to 24!!!!!  I hope to get to 31 this weekend and send them off to Sandy next week.  Here are a few of my favorites.  I don't usually make multiples of the same style - so I had to dress each up different!







I had 2 of these sets - so I made this one as a thanks - I enjoy coloring this image!

A Few Cards to Start Off April

I know it is the 10th of April - but I tend to make the cards - and not take the pictures and/or post.  So here are some from a Copics workshop I took from Jennifer Dove - and some I created on my own.
