Happy Veterans Day to all soldiers!
I spent this morning on the Cards For Soldiers blog. I was reading the thank you notes that soldiers have sent and was blubbering like a baby. There was one soldier's thank you card regarding a Father's Day card he was able to send to his dad that was a real tear jerker.
So, on this Veteran's Day I would like to share some information about a very worthwhile organization that is directly related to crafting. The Cards For Soldiers organization collects and sends cards to soldiers who, in turn, use the cards to keep in touch with their families back home. It's probably the easiest crafting project you'll ever do; just create A2 sized cards (handmade and no glitter, please) then send them off to the Cards For Soldiers headquarters (you'll find the exact address and more information on their blog). They collect the cards from all over, then package them up, along with envelopes, and send them off to various troops.
I really enjoy doing this because not only does it make me feel good, but it reminds me that there are soldiers all over this world protecting us. So again, a huge thank you to all our veterans!
