Handmade Cards help reconnect families and friends during the holidays. Think about it. When is the last time you received a Handmade Card, yes you personally? If you haven't received a card personally, please think about how it feels when you open that envelope and instead of a bill or solicitation you see this beautifully crafted handmade cards. You feel special right? I know I do, and so will others! Let's bless the lives of our loved ones and create some cards! Let's reconnect with our families with Handmade goodness and let them know how much we love them!
Sending out a fun Handmade Card evokes a feeling. Halloween would be whimsical and fun for all ages and those that love Halloween would delight in this card don't you think?
This card was created for World Card Making Day! You might be asking…."How in the world do you send that out in the mail?" I recommend a padded envelope if mailing through your local postal service and it will cost a little but more, but think how happy the recipient would be!
You could also hand this card to the recipient in person, or use as a gift tag for a large gift.
What about Thanksgiving? Personally I love sending out Handmade Cards for Thanksgiving. It gives me a way to stay in touch with those I love and care about across the miles. It lets them know how Thankful and Grateful I am for them. In this fast pace world filled with technology, a Handmade Card for Thanksgiving can help reconnect your family and friends don't you agree?
Then there is Christams and Holiday Season. Christmas, Haunakku and Kwanza are the most celebrated Holidays with Hanukkah kicking things off beginning the evening of November 27th and ends the evening of December 5th. Then December 25th is Christmas Eve. Then Kwanza begins December 26th thru January 1st in the new year.
Whichever event you celebrate each offers an opportunity to create Handmade Cards that can help to reconnect with families and friends.
