Blessings, An Arizona Themed Card to bring to the Homeless.

Now that the Arizona summer is coming to an end and the cooler weather is upon us, I am seeing more and more homeless people while I travel for work. My girls spent last week restocking my car with bags of supplies for me to give out. You can see the bags HERE.

A quick story, I didn't always include cards in my bags, one day I just decided a more personal touch might really make someones day. This past week I was driving and passed a homeless person sitting on the opposite side of the freeway, so I pulled off went around to the other side of the freeway, squeezed onto the shoulder and gave him a bag. I ended up having to make a u-turn, and I was sitting at a red light and I looked over as he was digging thru the bag and pulled out the card that was inside. Not the water, not the candy, not the snacks, it was the card.  It honestly made me cry! So now I make sure every bag has a card, so that they know that someone does care.

Here is one of my cards:



Cactus is from Ye-Haw Cricut Cartridge
I ran it thru my Xyron machine and covered it with Glitter to make it sparkle
All the paper is from my Scrap pile

Monsterrific Halloween Card!

So I was kinda all over the place with this card! I had an idea in my head and just could not get it to translate on my card front! But I needed this longer business sized card to be flat so I could mail my skittles inside, and this was the end result. I like the monster, and I like the spider, just not together!
