SEND A LITTLE LOVE TO A DIRTY GIRL!
 

Happy Sunday people! I personally really appreciate all of the time and dedication it must obviously take to be a Dirty Girl....making sure your projects are completely up to snuff, perfect in every way, working with an assigned theme, pretty much just living up to the *image*! Here is our chance to show some appreciation to one of our Dirty Girls.

Duckwaddlequack (Angie) just recently posted a thread in the RAK forum and in the Need a Lift forum which has not received alot of attention. I am posting a link here.

Angie is requesting cards for her parents as most recently they received some bad and scary news about Angie's father. Going into the Christmas Season, their minds are focused on the uncertainty of it all.

Angie's goal is to get 100 cards in her parents mailbox. That is not very many considering how many there are of us! We have to make just one card and send it off to make her dream come true! Angie has to make several amazing and spectacular projects over the next 6 months to make our *dreams* come true. Let's help her out! I know we can do it....we are all really good at that!!

Thanks for the link!

I will send one tomorrow.

I will get a card out. My prayers are with your family!

My postage is printed! I will get one out Monday! Thanks for the posting!

Thanks for the link...I would not have seen it otherwise....Angie is soooooo sweet. I will be sending off my card tomorrow.

What Colleen said :)

Keeping this bumped up....this forum moves fast!

Stamped, addressed, ready to go tomorrow. Thanks for pointing it out to us.

Count me in, too!

I will make a card to mail out as well, thanks for sharing this with us-Samantha

Mine will go out tomorrow!! Thanks to you too Mothermark, you take such good care of everyone(IMHO)!!

Thank you for posting this!

I just posted in the Need a Lift forum, but I'm gonna post here to bump it up. :) My card will be going out tomorrow - weather permitting me to go to the PO.

Just wrote out a card -- bumping up to the top!

Count me in!

BTT

Thanks everyone...for the bumps along the way!

Poor Angie...hope she feels the love from this awesome community.
I will put a card in the mail tomorrow. Thanks Cindy for bringing this to our attention.

Bumping for Angie!

Thanks for the bump Laurie!

Thanks Cindy for posting this. Will get a card in the mail.

Mine's addressed and ready to go.

bumpitty bumpitty bump bump bump!

Just wrote down their address and will go send out a card before the mail lady arrives in an hour.

Thanks, Mothermark, for ALWAYS being there to encourage RAK's--you're awesome!!!

Sending mine out right now! My Dad underwent surgery for colon cancer 4 months ago. It's a VERY scary time. He is clear now, and hopefully will remain so.....as will your Dad! Thoughts and prayers are with you!

This is a wonderful thread and your responses are so kind. I never seem to know what is appropriate for these situations. Do you send a "thinking of you", "get well", "just a note" kind of card?

Please share an example of a card you would send for a Need a Lift request to someone you don't actually know. TIA.

Hi Catherine!

Honestly....I think all three of the cards you mentioned above would work. I think when you write a note inside letting them know that you are a stamping friend of Angies and that you just want them to know you are thinking of them and sending your best wishes.

Many times I will even send cards that don't have an sentiment on it at all and I just write a message on the inside. I know that you probably tend to think that the person you are sending it to is a stranger...someone you don't know (it's true!) ....but you do have a connection to Angie through Splitcoast and I am sure Angie has explained to her parents where the cards are coming from. Often times I sign them in this manner

Cindy, A stamping friend of Angie's from Colorado!

Hope this helps!

That does help tremendously, Cindy. Thank you so much for some insight on an inside message as well.

I have a card ready for tomorrow's mail. Thanks again Cindy!
