Cardmakers from all over the world make and donate blank cards that are then shipped to our CFH shippers. From there they are sorted and repaired if necessary then shipped to our Armed Forces, which are then used by the Soldiers to send to their families back home.
We also send the Soldiers cards as gratitude and encouragement. As you can see, I am a beginner when it comes to cardmaking but that's OK. It doesn't matter if your experienced or have never made a card in your life! You can do it as well as your children, make it a family event or girlfriend get together time. Here is one I have made to send to them.
If at this point your confused and have no idea what I am talking about then chances are you did not come here through the CFH Bloghop! lol Let me explain a little bit of what is going on. Today, Saturday May 23 at noon Pacific time, a giant button will appear at the top of the beginning page linking to the first blog, and that blog will link to the next...and so on!
PLEASE start at the beginning by clicking on the button to your right, last count I heard there were over 130 bloggers joining in, so you don't want to miss this!!!
Now it's time to move on to the next CFH cardmaker, Donna. She is from the Philippines and has an example of her gorgeous card she is sending to the Soldiers.
Thank you for stopping by to visit and good luck on your CFH Bloghop journey. We would love to have you join us!

Sandy, I forgot to add that I think everyone in America should see this video. It is one of the most heart wrenching videos ever. Isn't this the one that was made by a teenager? It is absolutely awesome and brings tears each and every time I watch it. It also reminds you of the men and women who can't forget, because they live it everyday. We should never forget them.
love your card and what a touching video.
M.E.
Cute card! I hope you are enjoying the hop and having a nice weekend.
I browsed some of your other posts as well..you sound like a super fun person!

lovely card! Thank you for supporting our troops and CFH! Have a wonderful Memorial Weekend!

The card was great but the video was truly outstanding. How could anyone watch it and not be inspired to contribute to CFH in some way.If you can't make cards you can send money for postage.
Thanks for your post.
Your Uncle Sam card is really cute!
thanks for sharing the video!
I love our Uncle Sam Wants You!
Blessings,
Beth Redding
