Caring Hearts Card Drive

Hi craft lovers.

I know I'm really late with this post,

I started it a long time ago and just found it

not finished.  Every year I make cards and deliver them

for the Caring Hearts Card Drive.

This card drive is near and dear to my heart.

Card makers from all over the world make cards and

donate them to be sent to residents of nursing facilities.

My Mom was in an assisted living home for almost 5 years

and many of the residents in nursing homes and other care facilities

don't receive cards or even visitors at Christmas time.

These cards are collected and then sent out to people, like me,

who have a connection to the nursing facilities to be distributed

to the residents. I delivered to 6 different homes this year.

Between myself and the ladies I craft with, we donated over

250 cards to the drive.
I know the people at Sacred Heart Adult Home, where 

Mom lived, love receiving these cards. They would all

be excited to compare where their cards came from.

This card drive is held every year and usually starts 

around the beginning of October and runs through 

mid November.  I try to remember to post about it, when it

starts.  If you are interested in donating, watch for my post

about it in the fall.

Here are the card styles that I made this year.

Snow flakes embossed with silver embossing powder.

This card is an interactive card.

Pull the tab and an sentiment is revealed.

This card is a tri-fold card,

I made this with several different patterned papers.

Thanks for stopping in today.

I hope when the time comes next year, you may 

join in the fun and make some cards for this card drive.

I try to make some here and there through out the year,

so I'll have them when it's time for the drive.

Until next time,

crafty something fun!
