Boy, what a pretty day here! A sunny, brisk, fall Midwest day in Central Ohio. :)
My thanks to everyone who wished my father-in-law well on his 91st birthday. We had a lovely lunch and I think he had a really nice day. Just saw a blurb encouraging folks to leave a Facebook message for their favorite vet. LOL -- There's no way on Earth of that happening. Guess we'll have to deliver our message in a less techie way. :)
OWH Sketch #242
I'm here with an Any Hero card for OWH Sketch #242. Loved the sketch and inspiration card. Not so sure about my interpretation...

| OWH Sketch #242 Authentique pride; Distress Ink core Stamper's Best sentiment in DI walnut stain on Crate Paper rose garden inking in DI walnut stain, vintage photo, and wild honey embossing folders: Stampin' Up/Sizzix, Sizzix, Darice, Cuttlebug star punches: Fiskars and Paper Studio other punches: ??? corner rounder (for tiny stars); EK border; SU owl builder (for teeny circle) adhesives: Glossy Accents, Recollections foam squares |
This card's a little busier than my typical cards. I just couldn't let that space below the left two vertical strips go. So, I put in a few stars, and then added a couple of stars at the top for the sake of balance. I am fairly pleased with the embossing and inking.
Just hope my card conveys our appreciation to one of our troops.

Hi Sybrina! I like this interpretation of the sketch! I think the stars balance the card out. Nice job!
