Today I will be sharing the 6 cards I made for Emma. Kelly Bertram is hosting this card drive for 7 year old Emma who has Leukemia and will be going through treatment over the next two years. Kelly would like to collect enough cards to give Emma a card each week throughout her treatment. Check out all the details on Kelly's Blog here.
Let's look at the cards!
I used a variety of cute stamps to make these cheerful cards. Emma's favorite colors are green, purple, and blue. I stuck with those colors for the most part. But, how could I make cards for a little girl without using pink??! I could not. LOL All the images are colored with Copic Markers.
- Penny Black stamp and Debbie Mum DP
- Stampavie Stamp and Debbie Mum DP
- My Favorite Things stamp and Debbie Mum DP
- My Favorite Things stamp and Debbie Mum DP
- My Favorite Things stamp and My Mind's Eye DP
- Stamps Happen stamp and Debbie Mum DP
The cards will go out in the mail on Friday. Kelly will collect the cards and hand deliver them to Emma's family. I could go with lots of layers and ribbons since I didn't have to worry about them going through the mail individually. That's the way I like it! LOL Sometimes you really have to rein in the bumpiness for mailing considerations. Check out Kelly's blog if you would like to make a few cards for Emma!!
