Our mission is to bring all kinds of goodies to add to Summer's stash so she can win a tu-tu. Now, she's probably getting 42,000 flowers already, but this one little flower comes special delivery by Howie Hedgie with loads of love.
This challenge is really special to me because the cards will be going to Alzheimer's care givers. Some will even go to the facility where I take my mom for respite care. I want them to get enough cards to give one to each care giver at the facility. I made this one very simple because I thought they need to have a few cards for the men who work there.
Please go to: Forums at Splitcoaststampers to find out where cards can be sent. My mother goes to Arbors Memory Care for respite care. In fact, she will be going there tomorrow for five days while I go to Sacramento with friends from my church to see Joyce Meyers. All these care givers are so deserving! I hope there's enough cards for all of them!!! Thanks for taking a peek!!

This is so cute. I like that he is running to get one more flower into summer.
Big Hugs hugs to you Sistah CarrollAnn. I'm so happy you will get your fun time with friends to go see Joyce Meyers. I know how much you love your mom too. I know it's good to know she will be having a little vacation at a nice place too.
Oh, and I'm sure you will take your laptop so you can continue to do the most important thing - comment on MY cards should I happen to make any while you are gone. You have your priorities SO straight. I hope you stop at a Costco just willy-nilly too, maybe to get a frozen yogurt...

Hi CA! I knew you would be at the tea party today! This is such a precious little card and of course with your first hand knowledge of the facility, you would know that there are some men that need recognized! I love this...and its perfect. Will bring a bright spot on one of the gentlemen's days!
Thanks so much for doing the leg work on the destination....I am so happy you shared your story and brought the attention of the place your mom goes to us. I hope you have a wonderful trip with your friends and I know you won't worry about your mom, as she will be in very good hands! Hugs to you.....its a wonderful thing THAT YOU DO AT HOME WITH YOUR MOM TOO!
