Another card for this week's {ippity} challenge, IHHC26, to create a card or cards using {ippity} stamps for the Operation Write Home organization.
I also used Card Patterns Sketch 66 for the layout of this card and this week's There She Goes challenge, TSG57, to use the colors baja, tangerine, and gray.
This card will go out in a package to OWH this weekend. Great for a deployed soldier to use to write a loved one at home, don't you think?
Paper: SU baja breeze, SU tangerine tango, SU whisper white
Ink: SU baja breeze, SU tangerine tango, Palette charcoal
Accessories: SU 1" circle punch, MS royal butterfly punch, CM corner rounder punch, sewing machine, scissors, ribbon, dimensionals, glue dots, hemp twine

Emzi I love how you used the spotlight technique on this beauty. The colors are wonderful together. Some lucky soldier is going to get this to send home to a loved one that will cherish this!
Bear Hugs,

Sewing and punching and spotlighting and sponging - it's all wonderful Emzi! Great card, great cause. I can hardly wait until DH finishes painting my Rubber Room so I can get back in there and do some cardmaking. RYPH
