Hello, and welcome to The Operation Write Home Blog Hop!!
When approached about the opportunity to participate in this event, we jumped right in… with so many people both on our Design Team and in our Online Community with loved ones who either have served or are currently serving in our Armed Forces, it was a given. These men and women can’t be told enough just how grateful we are for their continued service and dedication, so here at Studio Calico, our focus for the hop was ‘thank you’… and several of our Design Team members crafted some amazing cards that will be sent along to OWH so that they can be forwarded to our troops. Check out these beauties!!

These are just a few ideas of how to say ‘thanks’ to our troops, and although the deadline to get cards to them by Christmas has passed, OWH would still gladly appreciate ANY cards that you could make and send their way!! (Think Valentine’s, Thinking of You and of course Thank you cards!) More info can be found on the OWH homepage: http://operationwritehome.org/
Also, please leave a comment here for your chance to win one of EACH of our new 6x6 pads (Autumn Press and Memoir)… perfect for making cards! You have until Sunday, 11/13/2011 at MIDNIGHT EST to comment for the giveaway, and a winner will be chosen and posted here on our blog.
The next stop on the hop is Tonic Studios. If you get lost along the hop, please head back to the Operation Write Home start page. Thanks for joining us on the OWH Blog Hop!!
What incredible cards!! I have a few of them in hand and they're even more stunning in person. (One day the internet will learn how to post 3d pictures, wouldn't that be awesome!!)
Thank you so much for participating in our bloghop and honoring our heroes this way - you're fantastic!!!
