Hello friends,
I’m so honored to be part of the Celebrating Parents Card Drive Blog Hop. This hop is especially meaningful as it’s focused on sharing kindness with seniors who may be feeling alone around Mother’s Day and Father’s Day.
This year, it holds an even deeper place in my heart. I lost my father almost a year ago, and this season feels a little different because of that. It’s made me reflect even more on how important it is to show love and appreciation while we can—and also to reach out to those who may not have someone close by.
That’s what makes something as simple as a handmade card so powerful. It can bring comfort, remind someone they’re thought of, and let them know they matter.
For my card, I wanted to create something warm and uplifting—like a small paper hug. Every detail was chosen with the hope that it might brighten someone’s day.
I love that this hop brings together creativity and compassion in such a meaningful way. It’s a beautiful reminder that what we make can truly touch someone’s life.
With any hop comes prizes! $200 in total prizes! To help support this card drive, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 2 lucky winners and a $20 gift certificate to 5 winners!
