Green Diamond with Cream, Blue, and Rust

My card today has strong lines and colors. I made it for this week's Sketch Challenge #114 on Operation Write Home's Stars and Stamps blog.

Card details:
  • Card stock is Neenah classic cream (sentiment) and Papertrey Ink pinefeather (dark green), canyon clay (rusty orange), and blueberry sky (medium blue).
  • The lines of holes are pierced with Tonic craft pick. The holes are spaced 1/4" apart.
  • The sentiment "Thinking of you" is computer printed in dark green ink with Courier font. The border line, as well as the shapes above and below the sentiment, are also computer printed.
Created for Operation Write Home, "supporting our nation's armed forces by sending blank handmade greeting cards to write home on, as well as cards of gratitude to encourage them." (142)
