Missing You Card

I am trying really hard to use only my stash this summer and not do a lot of shopping. This may be more difficult than I thought as my favorite LSS is going out of business this month and sooooo many goodies are on sale. But I digress.

I made a few more cards in my attempt to have a box of cards to send Operation Write Home. This missing you card was for their 4th of July card making party. We had to use a fish bowl. Mine is from Create a Critter cut at 3.5". Nemo is actually a leftover cut from another project. I think I cut him at 3.5 also.


I used a  Copic pen to outline the bowl cut, and inked the tan "sand" paper cut. I realized after I have finished that I used glitter (Stickles) on the speech bubble and the bubbles leading to it. OWH has a policy of no glitter because it gets on everything and can be seen by night vision goggles. This endangers our service men and women. So I guess this copy of the card I will have to send to a friend. Meanwhile, I think I have enough scraps to make a glitter free version for my OWH box.

Well, I am off to see if I can remake this card, and also find something for my baby brother's birthday.....
