Everyone here at Scrapbook Calls & Contests are delighted to be taking part in the Cards for Heroes blog hop!
Cards for Heroes is an awesome organisation- originally founded by crafters on 2peas, they provide blank handmade cards to the military abroad for them to send home - as they get free post home but often cards and stationery are in very short supply. They currently supply USA & Canadian forces with card packages.
they are always looking for cards for their loved one, their kids, family, special events or even just cards to say hello to people back home - this helps so much with moral and helps the time deployed go faster,
Given this is memorial weekend, this is the perfect time to show your support of the men & women who do so much to keep everyone safe.
to find out more about cards for heroes - check out their website:
Here is some of our Red,White & Blue Themed cards that we will be sending off to Cards for Heroes.
Products: BoBunny Papers, Heart Charm with Bazzill Tulle & cardstock
Products: Glitz Designs Rebel collections & Glitz Designs Alpha Stickers
Products: Bombshell Stamps, Stazon Inks, Bazzill cardstock.
Add your comment on this post and we will randomly pick people to post RAKs out to.
the next person on the blog hop is... Kathy - enjoy her beautiful work and awesome kiddies.
Love how you used red-white-and blue to make everyday cards. They look great!

My hubsters is currently gone on a 13 to 23 month deployment. All the cards I make for challenges and such go to him and his Marines. I even got really lucky and some of the ladies over at TallyScrapper made cards and sent them. I guess I've got my own kind of "Cards for Heroes" thing going on...lol.
I think this is an awesome thing to do for our men and women serving overseas! Thank you to everyone who participates!
