This card is for Claire who will be 11 years old next week. She is one of our Send Love Today kids and has an inoperable brain tumor. She loves pink and getting mail. Pink is hard for me since I raised three sons - no pink - and I was raised by my dad who dressed us in jeans and stripped shirts. I tried to pink this out as much as I could!!!!
If anyone is interested in sending cards to this organization, you can send them to:
Send Love Today
PO Box 528
Berea, Ohio 44017
Just do not send get well cards. Thinking of you, birthdays etc. are more what they want.
They really appreciate groups contributing cards so they can send them to people in need. I signed up for one person (Nathan) to send one card a week. They also give us a list of people whose birthdays are in the two months. After August, I will be assigned another person.
Thanks for looking. Comments appreciated.

Connie Jo, what a perfect card for Clair. My goodness, she will be in love with it. The colors, the image, the b/g ef, papers, flowers and that gorgeous velvet ribbon!!! What a great card for a great cause!!! Hey, I hear your sister, Mutnik, is getting you out of the Anne Ryan jam who is demanding his winnings from the Sput Challenge Contest that was fabricated by the one and only, Anne Ryan. Selling her cards to pay for the winings - wow, ain't family great!!! TFS!!
