Hi there...glad you popped in (-:

ok everyone - have you made your Christmas cards easy on you yet and gotten the
Heartfelt Creations Christmas Card Collection paper pack?

(hey, another thing I found out about this paper pack is that it matches some retired SU cardstock I have from I think 2007! Matches Vintage Violet and True Thyme so completely perfectly...)

so here are 3 more - just added ribbon, stickles and a little hand-doodling ...enjoy

Remember the more blogs you visit and comment the more chances you have to be the random winner of the $25 gift certificate to shop at Heartfelt Creations! The hop closes Fri. November 1st at

midnight. Winner will be announced by noon on Saturday...enjoy the hop (-:

Luckily,they have OPERATION WRITE HOME (OWH). OWH is a non-profit organization that sends special boxes filled with cards to soldiers all over the world. How can you help OWH keep the good deed going? By creating cards!!! Yes! OWH angels receive tons of handmade cards from crafters all over the world,then they check and organize cards to be sent out to our soldiers. Take a look at some of their own words about OWH packs:
