Welcome to Falliday Fest 2016!!


Today's drive benefits Operation Quiet Comfort - an amazing organization whose sole purpose is to provide love and gratitude for ill and injured members of our military.

From their website:

"Operation Quiet Comfort exists solely for the purpose of honoring and comforting America�s military men and women who become sick and injured while serving in harm�s way. We also provide support to those who care for them."

For this card drive, you are asked to send blank, patriotic thank you cards with NO GLITTER and NO ENVELOPES.

This card destination has approved year round donations, and so they will remain in our Cards for a Cause forum as an ongoing recipient.

Please send cards to:

Diane Schneider

We have some travelers this month, my DH is returning from Germany and my DD has medical school interviews in the mid west and eastern states in the next few weeks- so this is a perfect card for me to craft today! We are having power outages due to storms coming through Western Washington, so I sewed my somewhat ruffled ribbon in fading light by hand Here's FF16JeanneS Our Adventure
