One card can change a life…really :)

Hi…I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I have been crazy trying to organize my studio so I can stamp in a more productive way and hopefully keep things neater too! Last week I made these monster cards for Jennifer McGuire’s card drive. Today Jennifer has made a plea for more cards. I can tell you first hand that even a QUICK card can make a difference in a child’s life!! Did I mention that there are GREAT PRIZES TOO!!!!! Please check out Jennifer’s blog and send one card if you have a minute. Nothing fancy…you know how the saying goes…it’s the thought that counts. I’ll be back tomorrow and thanks for stopping by!!!
Hugs,Kathy
