Some other important info about the card drive:
- Please make the cards for Christmas or Holiday Wishes. Anyone can send a card, your children, church group, scout troops, etc.
- All cards need to have a message in it. Please also sign your name and where you are from. On the card envelope, write your name on the top left corner. Also, please don't seal the envelope.
- Please stick to just cards. And please don't use any pins (safety reason).
You can mail the cards to either of these addresses:

In each package, PLEASE include a piece of paper with your name, address, email address and how many cards you sent. This helps us in keeping track for prizes! For each card you send, you will get a chance. So the more cards you send, the better your chances.

Ciao ragazze un blog hop nuovo di zecca promosso da Vera e Jennifer Macguire per una meravigliosa causa! Spedire delle cards di Natale a degli anziani che sono nelle case di riposo, potremmo organizzare una cosa del genere anche qui in Italia, sarebbe bello e doneremmo un sorriso a queste persone:)
Partecipare è davvero semplice, lasciate un commento qui entro domenica 6 novembre e potrete essere estratte per vincere bellissimi premi! Andate sul blog di Vera per capire come funziona questa iniziativa e come spedire le cards :)
Alcune info anche qui:
- le cards che invierete dovranno essere a tema natalizio;
- ogni card dovrà avere un messaggio al suo interno, scrivete anche il vostro paese d'origine ed il vostro nome, il nome andrà anche sulla busta ma non sigillatela;
- non usate spillette per motivi di sicurezza
- nel pacchetto che spedirete ad uno degli inidirizzi sopra riportati inserite il vostro nome, la quantità di cards fatte, per ogni card potrete essere sorteggiate per vincere un premio;)
Forza forzaaaaaaaaaa facciamo sorridere chi è triste ;) Natale è la più bella festa al mondo, facciamola vivere con questo spirito anche a chi è meno fortunato di noi!
Have a wonderful friday!
