Card Drive for Emma: Update

Quick Update: LAST CALL

Hi crafty friends!

I am thrilled to report that I have

(There were more cards, but they were asked not to be counted).

What a great response!  

I know at least one person is mailing cards this week.  

I will draw prizes and announce winners on Monday, July 28.  

That gives a wee bit more time to mail cards.  

Please realize that once I close the PO box, the post office will forward the mail to my personal address for a few weeks so even though cards may not count for prizes, 

they will still be received and given to Emma!  

See the link for card info, but some info is copied below:

STS15: B-ball themed Thank You card

Played along with Seize the Sketch #15.

I needed some thank-you cards for my boys' coaches.

I cut the basketball on my Cameo. and layered about 4 balls for "umph".

The banner stamp and sentiment are by Lawn Fawn and raised with foam.

I used a Fiskars punch on the edge. 

 Here's the Sketch:

EAD hop: Kid Friendly/Cards for Emma

Hello and WELCOME!

Today is very special for me.  The ladies who host a monthly hop featuring their EAD Design stickers have invited me to participate to help promote a card drive I am hosting for a little girl named Emma in Ohio who is battling Leukemia.

All of the participants in the hop are using EAD goodies on their 
project in a "kid-friendly" theme. 

All of the cards featured will be donated to the Card Drive for Emma. You can find the details HERE for the card drive.  

               

Sweet Amy sent me a few EAD goodies to play with. Here are the cards I made for Emma:

The first one features AC papers, a Project Life journal card, 

EAD stickers, twine, the Fiskars grass punch and a dab of Stickles on the belly.

                  

 This second little card features EAD stickers with gem stones, 

papers by Lawn Fawn and sentiment by Paper Smooches.

That top panel is raised with foam.

Fusion#5: You're Such a Deer

Played along with the current FUSION challenge #5.

I followed the sketch very closely and pulled the colors from my 

Simple Stories "Vintage Bliss" pad.

The deer stamp and sentiment is from The Craft's Meow.
I have been hoarding that ribbon and decided it was time to play! 
The deer was colored with Copics.

 

Thanks for looking.

This one will go to Emma.  
I am hosting a card drive for a 7yr old girl diagnosed with Leukemia.
The drive goes until July 2014!

This card features Simon Says Stamp's own Stamp set and die "YOU".

 


I found the washi tape at Michaels.
