Firstly an apology. I have not been feeling too well lately and I haven't been able to get around to commenting on peoples blogs or posting on my own, so please accept my apologies and I hope normal commenting will resume as soon as possible.
I know this is a long post but please read it and join in this fun event, it is for a worthy cause.
This week over at Cowgirl's Sunday Stamp'en Challenge we are having a Christmas Cards for Soldiers event. We are asking people to make Christmas cards (as many as you like) and post them to this address
CJ HOLIFIELD
and
CJ HOLIFIELD
15649 SH 148
BOWIE,TX 76230
USA
The only rule is NO GLITTER or SPARKLIES if this comes off on the soldiers clothes or skin it can be detected.USA
CJ will then get all of your cards off to the person that will be distributing the cards to the soldiers at war to fill out, sign and send home to their Families and Friends.
The soldiers at war do not have access to simple things that many of us take for granted like Christmas and Holiday Card's.
This is a campaign so please make and send as many cards as you would like to the address above. All of your cards will then be sent out to be distributed to the soldiers.
We will collect cards for about 2 weeks, so please get them out to CJ.
This is such an incredible way for the card crafting community to get involved and make the world a better place.
This week we are having a 1st place and 2nd place along with a TOP 6.
Celebrating this campaign with us this week we have two fabulous sponsors.

Here is my card for this Challenge
I have used a Meljen Design from Whimsy Stamps. This is a lovely image to work with and could be used for many different card both male and female. I coloured it with Copic Markers and Promarker. The snowflakes were cut from a MS border punch and the sketch is from Inspirational Card Sketches #82.
