Okay, so I’m still on my little “creative” journey here trying different things. My latest? Making cards! I’m having so much fun as it allows me to merge my yearnings to be creative and my love to connect with people. Here are a few samples:

Believe, Breathe, Hope

Gratitude

And the cards I love making are the ones where I am sending my own special message. The following is a card I made for my niece away at college. First is the front of card followed by inside message.

Sometimes You Must Take a Leap of Faith &

Trust What Life Has in Store for You

What I know is the joy I feel when I am able to express myself in ways that lets people know I really do care about them… that I appreciate them in my life. And it’s a bonus that I am able to put some of my own creativity into the cardmaking process. My other thought is this… I heartily believe that making someone feel special is a wonderful gift to share of yourself. Hope this inspires you to send a greeting to someone you care about!

And if you are someone who wants to send out cards professionally and needs a great way to do that consistently, with ease and at a low cost, visit my friend Patti Glick’s site, Hand to Hand Contact, helping caring folks keep in touch. You can pick from thousands of cards, type out your own message (in your own handwriting if you choose!) and the service sends your card right then and there or on the date you choose. It arrives by “snail mail” and  you’ve just made someone’s day! Take a look at her site and feel free to contact her if you have any questions about this service, even how to grow your own business from it.
