If you follow me on Instagram HERE you will know that I am doing a year-long series where I send out ten cards weekly to followers randomly selected from a Google Form my friend Lori Craig set up for me. I came up with this for a couple of reasons:
- I have SO. MANY. CARDS. and not enough friends/family to send them to. You all are so kind and supportive of what I do here and on YouTube and I want to give back!
- With how hard 2020 was it has reinforced in me that there's nothing like a handmade card in your mailbox to give a little sunshine to others. Not only does it brighten someone else's day, but it brightens MINE to share with you.
If you would like a chance to receive a card, please fill out the form HERE. I can not promise that I will be able to send a card to all of you. The response has exceeded my expectations. I already have over 1700 people signed up. But.... I do make a lot of cards every week so I am going to do my best! 🥰
NOTE One of the questions I receive the most is if I mail cards internationally. Yes I do! It may take a bit to get to you.
NOTE I have a favor to ask. When you're filling out the google doc form please make sure you add your state and/or zip code to your address. There have been several I skipped simply because it's time consuming to look up info and pray it's correct. I don't want you to miss your chance because of missing information. Thank you!
Every week I will do a little weekly recap with the list of cards I'm mailing out. Here are the cards I mailed this week. Please check to see if you are expecting a card.

Very, very rarely do I use a plain, white envelope to mail out my cards and I get a lot of questions regarding the envelopes I use so I made a couple of thumbnail lists for you all. I have an A2 list and also a Slimline/Mini Slimline list below. These are the envelopes I use to mail all the things. ;)
