Hi - these are generally sent to children at random times each month. It is not necessarily their birthday month - so they need general cards rather than specifically birthday cards... Does that make sense?

I'm sending 14 cards in tomorrow's mail. This month was a challenge for me because I don't make a lot of cards for children. Thank you for making me explore my stash of stamps to see what I could come up with! I had fun!
