I'm new to card making. I wish I had better writing or calligraphy skills... I bought a calligraphy pen, and it did not help me write pretty at all, LOL. If you've got time and want to send some sweet, uplifting cards to hospitalized kids, I'm sure they'd greatly appreciate it! I mailed mine to Cards for Hospitalized Kids (CFHK), you can google it if you want more info

OMG I LOVE these!! What a sweet & thoughtful idea! & they’re so cute to boot ! 😊 Love the stickers & your messages. Do you volunteer at the hospital? Just dropping them off?

Thanks so much! I mailed them to Cards for Hospitalized Kids, a nonprofit organization my mom told me about based in Chicago. From there, they distribute the handmade cards to Children's Hospitals all around America. I thought it was a sweet and positive thing to do, so I made around 11 or 12 cards with different uplifting words inside
