Fri. Oct.14, 2011 CSS Hop-Card Drive for Kids

This post is longer than normal, but there are a lot of details to share with you in addition to my card. We hope you will join us in this wonderful card drive and have a chance to win- Wait until you see the prizes!
If you arrived from  JOY's blog, you are in the right place.  If you'd like to start at the beginning, click HERE.

First, here is the card I made for Logan, who will be 3 years old on Oct. 17th.  I thought these puppies would be perfect.  The image is from Melanie's "Basket Buddies" stamp set.  I colored them with Copics, and used Glossy Accents on the heart. The sentiment is from Theresa's "Warm with Love" set.








 Card Drive Details:
  • Create a fun, uplifting card or cards for one or all the kids listed below (you can click on their names to read more about each of them). The card can be anything cheery, encouraging, supportive, etc.  Please DO NOT send sorry, get well or anything like that. Remember, we want to cheer them up. The kids:
  • All cards need to have a message in it for the child/family.  Please also sign your name and where you are from.  On the card envelope, write the name of the child.  Please, don't seal the envelope, as the parents might want to read the cards before the kids see them.
  • Cards must be received by October 31st to be eligible for the drawing.
  • Mail your card(s) to Giovana along with a piece of paper with your name, address, e-mail address and blog (if you have one). This will help a lot to contact the winner a lot faster!:
