The aim is to promote the good work of the charity, provide a fun and welcoming challenge community in which card makers and crafters can come back month after month to play in our challenges, and by sending their cards to the charity, provide a little something to help them keep their doors open.
So Come on join us for this Monthly Challenge.... we could do with some more Followers ....

Every so often i Bundle a few of my cards and send to the Hospice...they are so grateful.. and i feel very happy to help out....
