Operation Write Home - Midweek Throwdown

Sentiment Free - that's the rule for the Midweek Throwdown at Operation Write Home today.  I'd have to say that about 75% of my cards don't have sentiments on them, so this wasn't a problem for me.   I've been wanting to do something different and so I got out some Stampin' Up stamps that came from Kim.  I've never been able to do CAS and I still wouldn't be able to, but I found this card on Pinterest and I totally copied it.

You also might notice how much nicer than usual the photo is.  I paid attention to the tutorial yesterday about how to take better photos.   I didn't build a light box, but I did take out a really big sketch tablet and stand it
up under my daylight lamp.  What an improvement!

    Nancy these are gorgeous! I love the papers and flowers, the layout is clean and elegant. I leave the sentiment off my cards frequently too, sometimes it's just easier that way =)

    Thanks for playing in our Operation Write Home Midweek Throwdown challenge!

    Great cards, I often don't put sentiments on either, because sometimes I'm not quite sure what I'll be using the cards for later on. TFS...
