I've been working on more cards for the Operation Write Home troops when I should have been doing my chores this morning. Okay, I'm going outside now and will put in an additional hour of yardwork :)

The second and third cards are for OWH, I'm working on cards for kid's birthdays this week.

Corner Garden

This is my favorite stamp from the new catalog, the Corner Garden background stamp. New Blendabilities markers used to color. I had a really hard time getting the caps on and off of many of these. Hope they loosen up some or I'll have to eat more spinach I guess. (Popeye reference for the younger folks :)
Sentiment is from the new Flower Patch set.

Aloha

Thought I would work on my box of random stamped images while I await my new Stampin' Up! catalog goodies. I'm anxious to try the new Blendabilities markers to see how they stack up against the Copics. My favorite thing from the new catalog was the Corner Garden background stamp, this was the only thing that got an involuntary squeak out of me when I saw it :)

These cards for OWH troops use SU penguin and Island Oasis paper with a cute little Aloha and hibiscus stamp that I got in Oahu in April. The turquoise card is for the Mojo Monday sketch challenge this week.
