SRM Stickers Day 7 - OWH Birthday Bash

Boohoo!  Today is the last day of the OWH Birthday Bash.  I hope you had as much fun as I did!  We are closing out the Birthday Bash month with a Blog Skip using SRM Stickers on Christmas cards.  Be sure to leave a comment on the blogs along the way because there is blog candy that will be given away.  The deadline to leave comments for blog candy is midnight on Tuesday, October 2 and the winners will be announced on Thursday, October 4.  Here's the order, in case you get lost!

Stars and Stamps
Barb
Jan
Yolanda
Nancy
Paula
Allison <---- YOU ARE HERE!
Julie
Sandy

Don't forget that Christmas cards are due to your Operation Write Home shipper by October 10 if they are not stamped and tucked and by October 31 if you've done the stamping and tucking for them.  Don't be late or they won't get sent to the troops until next year!

Here's my Blog Skip card.  I used SRM Stickers, patterned paper from Canvas Corp. and Stars & Stamps sketch #9.  It's always helpful to rely on a sketch when using stickers in order to avoid the dreaded sticker sneeze!
