Because Nice Matters

February 24th, 2010

cards for a cause thank you
You know…I LOVE this sentiment!  Nice DOES matter.  These days it’s very easy to get caught up in your own life and forget to say thank you or to acknowledge others.  I *try* real hard to be a nice person {note emphasis on try, sometimes I fail! LOL}.

I was blessed to have many willing helpers for my Cards for a Cause fundraiser.  I wanted to say thank you and let each and every person who contributed know just how much that meant to me.  I made them a card and then made up triangle boxes from a half sheet of cardstock.  Inside was a packet of conversation hearts.  I wanted them to know they are loved and appreciated!! (awww, sweet aren’t I??  teehee).

I tried to remember all that contributed to the day.  If I didn’t get you all, i’m sorry!!  I cannot begin to thank you enough for all that you did to help me reach my goals.  We raised $3100 for Xavier and I couldn’t be happier with that result!  I also know I could not have done it without the help of my friends!!

Until next time,
Happy Stamping!!

    What a lovely gesture Madonna! These cards are lovely. The flowers are very pretty, and you are right the sentiment is a very good/true one.

    Best wishes,
    Sam.
