Creativity and Giving Back!

Hi Divas and Dukes,

I just spent a glorious Sunday afternoon with The Grand Duchess of Kandu (Jan Mollet-Evans) and Jane Carlson making about 60 cards for the troops. No matter what your politics are at the present, it's really important that the men and women in uniform know we support them .

Our friends at Scrapbook Royalty informed me about this card drive. We're making handmade cards to send to them so they can pick one out and send it home to their families for the Holidays.
They don't have a Hallmark in Iraq!!!!

We took all sorts of product that we'd collected and dumped it in the middle of the table and just started creating . It was a blast. We sat and chatted about family, Christmas traditions, snacked , drank tea and got really inspired by each others designs.


My Dad was in the Navy for 25 years and I remember getting letters and postcards from him. There wasn't any e-mail back then. Wow!!! That sounds like I've just dated myself!!!!!
It was great to get something in the mail from him and you would hold on to that for days. Sometimes it went under the pillow for safekeeping.

I know this time of year is really busy for everyone but just think if we could just sit down and create 5 cards each and send them in , we could make a family smile. They'd know that this was specially picked out by their Mommy or Daddy just for them!!!! I can see the smiles already.

We have till Oct 8th to send them in. Here's the address:

So lets get those cards sent in. It will make your heart Smile!!!!!
