We'll miss you... to one of our best

One of my co-workers is being deployed back to Afghanistan in a few weeks.  Here is the 'going away card' I made him for everyone to sign, wishing him well and a safe trip back home.

I got the stickers from Michaels (Jolee).... and the font is from the Pooh Font Cartridge (shadow and regular font).  The camo ribbon came from Joann's.

The card is 5.5" x 8.5"

The "ARMY" sticker is on white cardstock... then matted on Black Cardstock and then popped up



No chit chat tonight. Got some work to do but I hope to have some postings this weekend.
Have a great Friday everyone!

Missing you... Operation Write Home and a SHOUT OUT TO TRISTAN

The purple cheetah print was from a Recollections set they just put out (Michaels).  The sentiment came from Scrappy Moms. I used a purple metallic gel pen to faux stitch.  In retrospect, I should have positioned the satin ribbon below his armpits... but oh well.  Too late now.



I try to make at least 1 card a month for Operation Write Home.  This was made with my Pooh  cartridge.  I'm not a Disney fan, but Eeyore reminds me of my second dog, Auggie. Auggie had a similar personality to Eeyore.

Hey, Have you guys seen Tristan's blog??? If you haven't... you gotta go check it out and follow him. He's 8 and boy, does he have a talent for making cards.  Check him out....
Tristan's Blog.    For being 8, he sure is good at what he does. He's the next Tim Holtz!!! This little dude even gives out Blog Candy.  Honestly, I'd feel bad winning blog candy from him because that might be his milk money (HOW MANY OF YOU REMEMBER GETTING MILK MONEY????)
Keep it up Tristan! We're watching (and "following"... but not in a stalking way-- 'cuz you're only 8... and that would be wrong... and I value my freedom!). haha.




Ehem.... moving on....
Amuse-bouche: I live with a serial killer of Teddy Bears.  I came home one day about 3 weeks ago to find just a teddy bear head sitting on the couch... Just The Head.   (Note, I had bought about 5 of them after Valentine's Day from Wal-Mart). 

Here is the latest carnage that I came upon Thursday:
No Eyes.... MUST NOT SEE THE EYES...

Who was the perpetrator of this horrific crime?  
Are YOU looking at ME????
