A Challenge For You

I am passing along an easy challenge I hope you will participate in: make and send a bunch of cards to an organization in need. I know most, if not all, of us have cards lying around that we never get around to sending. Why not collect and donate them to people who could really use them? If you have the time and talent, you could always make a bunch of new cards instead of rounding up old ones. The cards can be for any occasion - birthday, Christmas, thank you, thinking of you...I sent some holiday cards to the VFW for them to pass along to our veterans. I just used some dollar cards from Michaels and added a little embellishment. While they aren't fancy, I think they are more personal than the generic notecard (I wrote a thank you message in each.) I made a bunch more Christmas cards today using a kit I bought a couple years ago. They were cute, quick and easy to make, and now I just have to find someone who needs them. Click on the highlighted phrase above for more details and ideas. Please "Pass It On"!!!

I made these fabulous pink and brown cards for a few friends this week. I love the ribbon effect and I plan on making more cards using it. Maybe you will be lucky enough to receive one someday!

OK sis, now let us know your schedule when you come for Thanksgiving. I would LOVE to get together for a card swap and making night. This would be a great way for us to meet the challenge!
