SPECIAL Speedy the Cat's Friends Challenge #21


This week Speedy's Challenge is sponsoring Operation Write Home!  What an amazing organization!  The challenge is simple - make and mail (as many as you want) a birthday card for the troops; either directly, or for them to send back home to their friends and loved ones.  Come on over to Speedy the Cat's Blog Challenge to get all the details, and to play along!! 

On my card used the MFP stamp set Apples and Camellias.  My color choice is from the Play Date Cafe.  I adore turquoise, red, green, black and white - they just go together!

Thanks for stopping by - be sure and check out the SCF challenge!
