Yenni Paper Love

Hi Crafter especially those in USA. I have happened to see Laurel blogpost and i wish to pass this message. We have another heroes card drive. Though i am not a USA citizen but i find that this event just touch my heart deeply. It great thing if we could appreciate and give something for those people who always stay within us and safe guard our country safety.  The people who has to leave their family to protect your family. I am kind of envy with this event. I wish i could have created one for my country too.

You may or may not be aware that our sweet Laurel’s husband Christian has left just this week on deployment with the U.S. Navy. We wanted to do something similar to Operation Write Home, but specifically for the courageous men and women who work and serve along side Christian on his ship. Those who have each other’s backs and are keeping each other safe while they are away from their families.

We would so love for you to get involved.

We are looking for quality, handmade cards FOR OUR TROOPS TO SEND to their loved ones. Out on the field, many of our soldiers do not have the opportunity to purchase a card to send for their child’s birthday or simply to tell their significant other that they love them and are thinking about them. We want to provide them this service.

For the safety and to meet the desires of our troops, we have a few simple guidelines that we would ask you would adhere to:

• NO STORE BOUGHT CARDS. Cards must be handmade. Use quality products that won’t fall off in extreme temperatures. A good quality adhesive is a must. These cards have a long way to travel and once they arrive, they will likely be cherished and kept and perhaps even saved in scrapbooks or collections. Send your best, because our troops and their families deserve nothing less. Make sure that your card will stand the test of time.
