SRM + Operation Write Home

today, SRM Stickers is teaming up with Operation Write Home for a card sketch challenge.



The Details:

Create a Card Using this Sketch by the lovely, Jennifer Pohl:
Link it up to this post on the SRM blog by September 30th for your chance to win an SRM Prize Package of new SRM Stickers.

Then, mail your card to one of the shipper addresses listed HERE on the Operation Write Home sidebar, adhering to the general rules listed on the same page.

Here's my finished card using the We've Got Your Sticker, 53002 - Hello. i'm thinking it will make some soldier's little girl very happy to receive a note inside this one. :)


i had never heard of Operation Write Home prior to this. i see lots of cards being donated in my future. what a wonderful opportunity to give back to those who serve our country.


About OWH:
Operation Write Home began in 2007 with just a few cards made by friends on a message board; what began as an outlet for a hobby has become a much larger mission to help heroes keep in touch with home - and the effort has been joined by thousands of cardmakers!

OWH receives handmade cards donated by crafters across America (and beyond!). Cardmakers range in age, location, and level of skill; cards are provided by individuals and groups, schools and scouts, companies and churches. All have one primary thing in common: a desire to serve those who defend our nation!

Cards are mailed to one of our volunteer shippers in quanities both small and large. The shippers process, sort, repair, and document each donation, and then pack and ship boxes of over 300 cards each to our contacts. Our heroes request cards (families may also request on their behalf; we serve all branches in all deployed locations.
