Here's a smidge about the Caring Hearts Card Drive:

The holidays are about family, about kindness, and joy. During this time many of the elderly who live in nursing homes really feel the loneliness or miss their family. Wouldn't it be awesome if we can bring a smile to their face & brighten their holiday season simply by sharing our love of card making? A simple gesture to let them know that they are not forgotten...

I wanted to design a bright and happy holiday card:


I was surfing the PTI Christmas Ideas Pinterest board and was totally inspired by THIS card by Dawn McVey.
