Calling All Card Makers!
We believe that cards have power. Sending an old friend a handmade happy birthday card, reminding someone that you are always there for them, thanking mom for the hard work and love she put into making you who you are today, and telling a friend that when they cry, you cry too. Isn’t that why we make cards? We are enthusiastic about sharing our craft with the people who touch our lives. Cards are the heart of our community!
Simon loves to mail cards to our community of friends. We mail cards every single day! Friends and family all around the world celebrate birthdays, need thanked, congratulated, and need to know someone is thinking of them! As we gain new friends through our business it becomes harder to keep up with all the special events, so we need your help. :) For many years we have worked to hand make cards in our office but the time has finally come where we simply cannot keep up. The idea sparked to ask if any of you had extra cards you’d like us to help share with others.
Every day we are inspired by the cards you have created and we would like if you joined in our call for cards. We are hosting a mail call for your handmade greeting cards! If you are interested, please send us your latest works making sure to include your name and address with your card. It would be lovely if you could add your email address onto a slip of paper in your parcel.
Since we will be mailing your cards to fellow crafters often, we encourage you to stamp your name and blog info on the back of your cards. We will showcase and share some of your gifted cards on our blog!
If you have handmade cards you’d like us to help share, please mail to:

THANK YOU – this is awesome. My stamp club and I used to send them to another charity, but they are closing this year. We’d love to help you out!!
Just got back from the post office… you should receive my package (about 8-10 cards) within the next 5-7 business days (yeah, takes a long time to post something from Canada!) :-)
I will look around. I am thinking I may have a few.
I’ll definitely look thru my card stash, and see what I can send.
I would love to send you my cards!! I used glitter before I knew about Operation Write Home so I couldn’t send them any of those:)
Great idea! Will be sending some cards your way! :)
Sounds like a great idea!

There are so many SSS readers you may get more than you want! I’d be glad to send some, but how will we know if you already have enough?
Great idea!!
