OWH August Our Daily Bread Design Challenge

I was shocked to see that Operation Write Home does not have 50 cards posted for its monthly Our Daily Bread Design (ODBD) challenge.  If 50 cards are posted ODBD pays for two boxes of cards to be shipped overseas.  Shipping costs are very expensive so we need to get to 50 cards.  Plus you have an opportunity to win a gift certificate for Our Daily Bread Design stamps.  The challenge for August is to include STARS on your card.  I made a card to write to one of our heroes.

Hobby Lobby had IROTOGEN colored pencils marked down in their clearance section.  I picked up some and colored this flag from The Rubber Cafe.  I stamped some old sentiments I have from Cloud 9 and KAndrews.  I'll write a nice message inside for one of our heroes.  If you have time in the next few days please make a card and post it to the challenge HERE.

Happy Crafting!

OWH Our Daily Bread June Challenge

The Our Daily Bread Challenge for Operation Write Home for June was a shaped card. Our Daily Bread Designs sponsors the mailing costs of a box of cards to the troops for every 25 cards we post on the challenge.  Help OWH get to 50 cards so two boxes can be sponsored.  Here is my shaped card.

This will be a Any Hero card once I get the inside written.  This is a cut from the Wild Card Cricut Cartridge but it could be easily done by hand.  It will fit into a standard A2 size envelope.  I used the OWH Hero Arts Stamp set for the front.  The quote inside is from the Freedom isn't Free set by K.Andrew's Stamps and the Patriotic design underneath is from a set by Cloud 9 Design which I purchased at JoAnn's but I can't find a link anywhere for them.  Cardstock is Creative Memories.  Ink is Stampin'Up!, Basic Black, Island Indigo and Poppy Parade.  Brads are from Oriental Trading Company.

Happy Crafting!
