By request, I made a couple of seasons greetings cards. Here’s the first, inspired by one of my MIL’s handmade cards:

Not a duplicate, but it was the idea behind my card...

The purchase of these cards will support stateless children in need and help families legally and ethically adopt stateless orphans.

Thank you for your upvote, resteem, and support! 😊

This is the second one that was inspired by a real one, correct?

I am curious if you brought the cards with you or had photos of them.

I hope you are having some success with the sell of these cards!!

Peace

Yes, it is! Actually my MIL went to a stamp camp the other weekend and when we Skyped she was showing me the cards she’d made. I asked her later if I could use them for inspiration and she sent me photos! She has a bunch from past stamp camps too so there was a good variety to choose from.

I did have some people order here in Malaysia. I found a company to print (not as convenient as Zazzle’s on-demand printing) but it was a good sized bulk order! So hopefully they turn out well.

Thanks for asking! I appreciate your support 😊

Very cool. Glad she was able to inspire!

A stamp camp sounds fun! I love high quality DIY/craft.

Peace

I like the MIL's one better. (The new one would just make my dad think of hunting)
:-P

This is such a neat idea making your own cards, and for a good cause.

I have made them before for the church's shut-in members. It is so much fun! And two or three of them we were able to hand deliver!! :-D

Good catch! Yes, my dad and I love hunting. He doesn't get to much anymore because the weather is usually to harsh for his health. But he would love this card!

Thx

Ha! I should add that at the bottom ... “Happy Hunting!” I bet some people I know would go for that 😂

Thanks so much for your encouragement!

I know cards are kinda going out of style, but they can mean a lot to the recipient. That’s a great idea to make them for shut ins! I’m sure they really appreciated it!
