Hope You Can Cling To FAQ
Got questions? We may have answered them here!
Q: Can I use embellishments and glitter on the cards I send to MD Anderson?
A: Yes - bling makes the world go around! 
Q: If I don't have clear envelopes can I put my cards in ziploc bags?
A: Absolutely!
Q: Should I leave my cards blank or write in them?
A: You can send blank ones for the families to use, write a note in some for the patients, or send blank cards with a note on a post-it inside - it's up to you!
Q: I don't see my card in the Hope You Can Cling To Gallery - what do I do?
A: Click on your card, choose Edit Photo and check the category - make sure it says "Hope You Can Cling To Challenge Gallery". Change the category in the drop down if you need to. Then check your keywords. If you need to change your keyword - it will take about 15 minutes to show up in the gallery after a change. |

One more question Lydia. Can we use "Merry Christmas" on our cards or is this considered a religious sentiment? I saw the question asked in another thread but couldn't find an answer.
Thanks

Lydia, I think you must be online 24/7! Thanks for keeping us going with all of these challenges. I am hoping we get thousands of cards sent in to MD Anderson. I have sent the link to the Challenge forum to my entire downline. :-)

Do we have to post off to MD Anderson to enter the challenge? I live in NZ and would like to send to a charity here that does this sort of thing if it's available. But I do get that MD Anderson are the people you have partnered with.

Is it okay to wait 'til the end of the month when the challenges are all done and send all my cards in one big package? |

I thought I saw somewhere where a company posted a free digi image set (sentiments, bra etc) and I was at work, so couldn't print it and now I'm looking for it to use on some of my cards. Is it gone now?

It's not what I was looking for, but thank you for this link.
The one I saw had several sentiments, a couple of different bra images and some others I don't remember right now.

Howdy! We've included the address in each challenge post - so either the first post in each chatter thread or you can go to the Master Challenge thread.
Thank you so much for participating!!

Can I just clarify - all cards in the challenge are to be sent to MD Andersen, yes? It's just I've seen a couple of cards combined with another challenge and being sent elsewhere.

Just checking. I don't always have the supplies requested. Can we substitute? Example: I don't have felt but I can use wool. There are several challenges that I just don't have the supplies but would love to play.

Sorry I think I answered that in the other thread and didn't copy. If you are across an ocean you can still play! I don't want mailing costs to keep anyone out so you may use a local charity. |

Lydia, would it be all right to add some extra cards to our box that aren't part of these challenges?

I thought about doing that too, glad you asked...I've got bunches in the stash box that could use a good home....I don't know what they are planning for postage but I bought 2 books of stamps to send also as several of mine will require extra postage...

Since so many people will be looking through them they asked that each one be protected. |

I've asked my q's in the forum but I am asking here again as well, if I don't play the challenge and have cards to donate, would it be okay to send it to the cancer center? also, Does this wonderful event end sometime soon or it's continuous?
