Hey all you lovely card makers!
I'm just checking in with
progress on our OWH box. Our goal was 350 cards by the end of this month
as I recall. I have over a hundred fabulous cards sitting on my desk
waiting to be "stamp and tucked". I'd love to take credit for making all
of them but many of them have been donated. So, thanks everyone for
that.
I'd love it if you'd post how many you have ready. And if
you want to donate you can bring them to my house or Juleen's house
(don't you love how I volunteer her for stuff like that?) and we'll get
them in the box. And if you can't donate cards...I'd be happy to accept
dollars toward shipping. :-)
The shipping date for these to be
in Washington to be sorted and mailed overseas is early October. So I
thought it might be fun to have a stamp and tuck party at the end of
September. Don't know what "stamp and tuck" means? Every card needs to
have the words "Operation Write Home" on the back and be tucked into an
envelope in a specific way. I've ordered a stamp with the OWH logo that
should be here in a couple days, and I made labels for any cards that a
stamp won't show up on. I also ordered 1000 envelopes that should be
here next week. So if you have cards to donate that don't have
envelopes, we got yer back.
These are today's fare. I made 6 of them. I know I've made gobs of cards of this same pattern. But I love it because it is quick, easy, creates nearly no waste and I think they are super cute.
