Yes – I have combined four different Operation Write Home challenges in both of the cards in today’s post.  Yay me!  🙂

I’ve had some of the challenges from the 4th of July weekend in the back of my mind for the last few weeks.  I finally pulled out this owl stamp set and decided to mask a moon behind the owls for Marianne’s Howl at the Moon challenge.  The sentiment I picked met the Play on Words challenge that Lisa hosted.  I also decided to step up to Sandy’s Two Cards challenge – to make cards for two different seasons using the same stamp image.  I did all of that with the OWH Stars and Stamps Blog sketch #79 layout.

I had summer in mind when I created this card, but I suppose it could also work for spring:

… and now, you need to imagine that a few months have passed.  Now it’s fall and the leaves have turned colors:

I had fun combining these challenges… and it’s nice to have two more cards for my OWH stash!
