laugh...and make a family smile.

I'm honored that Danielle asked me to help spread the word about a card drive she started...

"Just before Thanksgiving, Danielle from Neat and Tangled, heard news that a girl she went to high school with and her family had embarked on an incredibly difficult journey. They had discovered that their sweet little 2 year old boy, Grayson, had a tumor on his brain stem. Since then they have been on a roller coaster ride, and this is only part of the journey.  Grayson will begin chemotherapy this month as the next stage of treatment. Through all of this, the family has stayed strong, hopeful, faithful and positive.  And Grayson is a strong and spunky fighter :) Grayson's mom, Jackie, has a blog she keeps updated regularly, so you can get to know more about Grayson HERE.

 Danielle wants to just light up Grayson's life with some serious happy mail!  She talked to Jackie, and she informed her that Grayson and his brother love to get mail...and so, here we have the 

Happy Mail for Grayson Card Drive. 

Grayson is super lucky to have a big brother, Aydan, who is 4 so make sure to send some awesome cards to him too! These boys love all things boy :) Rescue Bots, Geotracks, Angry Birds, Thomas the Train. Send these little men funny, happy, cards! We all know how much love goes into a handmade card, and even better how personalized they can be!"

Here is the important info:

The drive will run from January 21 - February 28

(If they arrive late because they are International that's okay too!)

Send them here:

Grayson Savery and/or Aydan Savery

c/o Danielle Walls

P.O. Box 5808

Wilmington, DE 19808

Isn't Danielle thee best?

Of course I want to help out.  Here's my card for Grayson.  

I'll be posting another card for Aydan next week:)

All kids gotta love woodland creatures...says the girl that has a board on Pinterest named Woodland Creatures that is having more and more pinned to it!

I have a ton from the October Afternoon Woodland Park Collection that I haven't used...yes, it is a part of my hoarded collection.  You just gotta go:  "awwwwww..." when you see that rascally raccoon!  The tag has been sitting on my desk top for several days, I was going to use it on another project but changed my mind.  I love the embossing and how the sentiment pops off of it.  I'm hoping that it will make mr. grayson smile.

 I need to tell you that my card was inspired by Colleen Dietrich

She actually cased THIS card from P Kelly Smith from Paper Crafts Magazine.

Thanks ladies for the inspiration!!!!

So, those that know me know that I have a ton of stuff...like a ton of stuff.  I'll put together a 'box of shame' {term compliments of JJ Bolton!} or two to give out to a couple random peeps...this is all you have to do:

Make/send a card to either Grayson &/or Aydan

&

Blog about it..spread the word!!!!!

Link up....it'll stay open until February 28th @ 11:59 pm pacific.

Help bring some smiles to a family....
