OWH - Sketch #253

For this week's card I turned Operation Write Home's sketch #253 horizontally. I also got a head start on my Mother's Day cards...this one being for those doggie mamas out there.

 

OWH - Sketch #252

Here is my card for Operation Write Home's sketch #252. The inspiration came from a tag I saw on Pinterest. Here's the link to the actual blog post. It was such a creative use of washi tape that I had to try it. I used the butterfly stamp from Stampin Up's "Nature's Perfection" set, covered it with strips of washi tape and ran it through my big shot. I then pulled back pieces of the washi tape using an exacto knife. Pretty cool effect.

Lá Breithe Sona!

Happy Birthday (in Gaelic) to my father-in-law. 

May You Live a Long Life
Full of gladness and health
With a pocket full of gold
As the last of your wealth
May the dreams you hold dearest
Be those which come true
May the kindness you spread,
Keep returning to you.

Tim Holtz - 12 Tags of 2015 (Apr)

Here is this month's tag for Tim Holtz's monthly challenge. The flowers and the butterfly are from Stampin' Up's "Nature's Perfection" Sale-A-Bration stamp set and the sentiment is from the "Expressions" thinlits dies. Hope you enjoy and have a Happy Easter!
