This is only optional and you do not have to play along to send your cards to the featured cause for the month. We always take cards no matter if you play along in the challenge or not. This month let's focus on shapes...include a circle or swirl on your card. Be sure to use the keyword C4AC so that we can check out your card and comment! To see this gallery C4AC click here.

Happy to support this local-ish organization! I have been lucky to have a little extra crafting time in the last couple weeks, so I have been working ahead and might be ready a little earlier than usual for this month's cause.
these are "blank" unsigned cards... for the families to use as their personal cards.. right? -- (or are they to be signed by the crafter to be given to the families?) thanks...

You are correct - blank cards (or unsigned) so that they can use them for families, etc. Thanks!!!
A package was posted today. USPS Tracking No. 9534 6143 1067 0287 3554 83, with an Estimated Delivery Date of 10/20/2020. Thank you for the opportunity to brighten a few spirits.
Sending my package of 60 cards today, 30 Birthday and 30 Holiday. I'm rarely done this early, but the preview of upcoming months has been a great help! Maybe I can start a new trend for myself of sending mid-month instead of on the last day.
