Hope is in the Cards

The great people at Cardstore.com just informed me that two of my cards have been selected to be included in the Hope Is In The Cards TM campaign!

What's that, you ask? Small business owner Russ Haan began the grassroots Hope Is In The Cards campaign to lift the nation’s spirit in a concrete and compassionate way: by sending greeting cards. His goal is to send 300 million messages of encouragement by mail during the Week of Hope, from September 1st to 7th, 2009. Visit the official website to learn more: www.hopeisinthecards.org

From September 1st-7th, Cardstore.com is offering customers one free personalized card from our Hope Collection mailed directly to a friend, loved one, or anyone who needs a little hope.
