All of the card drive details can be found--- HERE.
The holidays are about family, about kindness, and joy. The holidays are the times when many of the elderly who lives in nursing homes would really feel the loneliness or missing their family. Wouldn't it be awesome if we can bring a smile to their face & brighten their holiday season simply by sharing our love of card making? A simple gesture to let them know that they are not forgotten.
We all love making cards and what’s better than knowing our creations can bring a smile to others? We hope that many of you will help and join us in our effort to spread joy & cheer. We already have some people that have agreed to help us deliver the cards to selected nursing homes.
Here is my card using the new set from Wplus9 called Fair Isle Backgrounds. Wow! This set is super fun and I loved using it for a holiday card for this card drive! I've also used the new Pure Poppy ink from PTI.......it stamped beautifully the FIRST time. My card was inspired by my blog friend, Jinny Newlin. She used this set so beautifully during the Wplus9 release. I also made this for the Simon Says Stamp challenge to use buttons!
