Operation Write Home Blog Hop with Christmas Candy






Ho! Ho! Ho! Thanks for stopping by today! The Operation Write Home Christmas Blog Hop has been amazing so far!

Can you believe it's only 85 days until Christmas? I am lucky to be surrounded by family and friends during the holidays. But I know how hard it is to have loved ones far away. My sister served in the Air Force and my brother in the Army. I remember we would count the days until we were to see each other again. I support Operation Write Home because I am thankful for the sacrifices so many families give to our country. Hopefully, my cards will put a smile on someone's face, making the miles and days seem closer to those they love.

Supplies:
Doodle Dragon Studios image - 100 Days of Christmas set
Heidi Swapp - chipboard letters
Imaginisce - Cottage Christmas - Peppermint Stick patterned paper
American Crafts cardstock
Pop dots

See the post below for Christmas Candy!
