Operation Write Home Memorial Day Bloghop with Inspired Stamps

Hello and welcome here!  This year the Inspired Stamps Design Team are supporting the troops and their families and made cards for the Operation Write Home (OWH) Bloghop.  If you want to find the list of participating blogs, just click on the link or photo below.
 
memdaybloghop2014

Card Size:  4.25" x 5.5"

I used OWH Sketch #217 for my card.  I used red and blue patterned paper from Bazzill 6x6 Worldwide paper pack.  I used Hymn Girls:  February stamp set...which includes the super cute heart as well...and coloured her with Copics.  The 'Miss You' sentiment is from the 1" Circle Sentiments.

I added stitch lines around the banner to reflect the stitch lines that are part of the heart stamp.

Inside:
I like to finish the inside of my cards and instead of centering a sentiment I chose to keep it small and to the side so that there's lots of room for the loved one to write!

Copics Used:
Skin - E000, E00
Dress - R27, R59
Shoes - N7

Recipe:  Inspired Stamps SS-Hymn Girls February & 1" Circle Sentiments, Bazzill CS-blue, CTMH White Daisy CS, 6x6 Bazzill Basics-Worldwide, Memento Black Tuxedo Ink, CTMH Ink-Black, Pacifica & Cranberry, Spellbinders-Marvelous Squares & Fleur de Lis Squares, White Gel Pen, Black Felt Pen, Foam Squares.

Have fun on the OWH Hop!!!  It's packed with some great creations.

    Had never heard of hymn girls till this hop, and I love them. This one is terrific; I love the coloring and the use of the heart which is echoed in the love sentiment in her hands inside the card. The decorative corners are also a beautiful touch to the card.
