Hello!
So today I wanted to share something different with you. Usually you see cards from me that part of my DT commitments today's post is for something to help a sweet little boy.
A fellow crafter named Mari - is hosting a card drive for him and you can read more about him below:
"Today I want to share with you a story about Landen.
Landen is a very sweet little boy that was diagnosed with Leukemia earlier this year. He is 4 years-old and has 3 years of intense chemo treatments ahead of him.
When he was asked what made him happy he had a very simple answer: Mail. And that's how Letters for Landen was born. In the beginning he got a lot of letters but they have really slowed down. So I am asking for your help. All you have to do is send a card or letter to Landen. I know he would love it." - Mari
I don't know about most of you, but about 80% of my cards don't get sent out, or sold, I just hold on to them. I have atleast 60 - 70 handmade cards just stashed. So why not take some of those and send them to this 'lil guy and brighten up his day a little?
Below is a picture of the first card I sent to him - he has already received and said he loved it!
So on top of brighting up this childs day - Mari has also gathered up some sponsors for this drive aswell!

1. From the Paper Temptress - a $15 gift certificate
