OWH Midweek Throwdown Spring Flowers

My resolution this year is enter a card into all the Operation Write Home challenges!  Here is my first entry for the year, the Midweek Throwdown.  To top it off I am using something new (a stamp I have had for a while and had not inked up yet).  Let the cardmaking begin!


The stamp is from Penny Black "Mixed Media".  I stamped it on Ranger's Specialty Stamping Paper so all the fine detail in the stamp shows up beautifully.  The background paper is K&Company "Life's Little Occasions Neutral Designer Paper pad".  I used Operation Write Home's Sketch #1 as my guide.

I am also entering this in the Just For Fun Challenges "New." and the
Simon Says Stamp "New Something" challenge.

Happy Crafting!
Donna

    Love this. So simple but elegant. Beautiful. Are you going to send them to the organization or just make them using their sketches?

    Thanks for playing "something new" with us this week at For Fun Challenges. Hope to see you Wednesday when the new challenge is posted.
