OWH's Mid Week Throw Down

Hi All, Operation Write Home's Mid Week Throw Down is to make a "miss you' card for our heroes to send back home.  This is what I was able to come up with.
This was an easy one for me, which I needed today as I was, somewhat, pressed for time.  Both the image and the sentiment are from the same Hero Arts set and I cut the image out with Circle and Scalloped Circle Nestabilities.    I stamped and black embossed the sentiment directly onto my designer paper which is by DCWV .  I used a zig zag punch from EK Success and the corner punch is by SU.
That will have to do it for me for tonight.  Hopefully I'll be back tomorrow. Thanks a bunch for stopping by to say hello.

  1. It's great to see you found time to squeeze in a card today :) This is great and I really like that striped dsp! I love diagonals and chevrons lately, but I've always loved clocks! I need to get this stamp set one day soon don't I? :)
    Have a fantastic evening! {{hugs}}

  2. Oh, that is so super! I keep looking at clock stamps, but couldn't figure out the best place to put the hands for a card.

    Duh. Obviously on all the numbers! Thank you!

    I also really like the diagonals and must keep that idea in mind more often.

  4. I really like the simplicity and beauty of this card! I have the same Hero Arts stamp set and have yet to use it. Might need to use your card as inspiration!
