Operation Write Home Week DAY 1



Welcome! We're teaming with Operation Write Home all week long to celebrate their birthday. Operation Write Home is an organization that sends blank handmade cards to deployed service members so that they can write home to their families. As of March 2012, they've sent 1.7 MILLION cards!

We're helping out this week by creating Birthday Cards for our service men and women. We have a lot in store this week, and a fun reader challenge (read below).

Today we're using a sketch by OWH as inspiration;

CHALLENGE
Create a birthday card using SRM Stickers, based upon the sketch above and upload it into our Gallery with the tag, "owhsketch". You have until the end of the week and you can enter as many times as you like. Your card should adhere to the OWH guidelines and when finished, you can send your card(s) off to OWH to be sent overseas. Good luck and happy card making!

We'll choose a few winners to receive a prize package that includes all of our new Summer realeses and so much more! Winners will be announced next Tuesday.

Hop over to the OWH BLOG to see what they have for you! See you again tomorrow with more Birthday Cards for troops!

I want to post a card for the challenge, but can't figure out how to get to your gallery. (Technology challenged I guess.)

Here's the link to my card for the
