Featured Cardmaker: Sue S, Santa Ana, CA

Sue blogs at Dancing In the Puddles - you'll want to go see more of her cards!

How long have you been stamping?
Somewhere around ten years, I think, but it seems like I've always been trying something.

Do you have a craft room or specific area where you stamp?
Yes, I have a nice general purpose room where I can relax, stamp, and indulge my card making passion very comfortably.

What are your favorite stamp products?
Right now I've been leaning towards the House Mouse and Magnolia stamps, but I love anything new, fun, interesting, which makes it impossible to pin down a favorite.

Do you have a favorite technique?
I guess I'd have to say, heat embossing but again how do you choose one favorite when there are so many wonderful techniques to pick from?

Are there colors you love to include on your cards?
I seem to lean toward brights more often than not and I absolutely love the red, black and white combo. I use that a lot.

How did you hear about Operation Write Home?
The lovely ladies on my Yahoo card making groups kept mentioning your organization so I had to see for myself just what you were all about.

What motivates you to make cards for our heroes?
That's an easy one. These fine men and women are sacrificing so much for us I feel it's an honor to be able to give something back to acknowledge their service, and this is the best way I can contribute. It's rewarding to think maybe I can brighten someone's day with a simple gesture of friendship.
