Hello Friends!

  I am often asked to share some of my ideas for small and inexpensive gifts for the Chemotherapy Patients in the Chemo Angel’s program.

  These projects and gifts do not have to be expensive to pack a punch and most importantly be thoughtful.

Snowman soup is a project that is not a new one.  The concept has been around for a long time.

Here is an image of the poem for the project:

  For today’s blog entry I wanted to share this quick project I made for one of our Chemo special assignment buddies.  I tried to us colors in this projects our friend said where her favorites.  Hunter green goes with so many things.


  You don’t have to take a lot of time or resources to bless someone who is going through cancer treatments  take this little project.  the entire thing cost maybe  $4.00 to make.  If you don’t have these type of materials, a simple post it with a pen and well penned letter is so appreciated.


  I for one feel i am blessed to be able to bless some one’s life with my passion for crafting. It rewards me with the gift of joy.  Knowing that in my own small way I can help change a life for the better


  In my blog posts’ you will also be given a small glimpse of what I am working through with Life Book 2025.  Looking for healing, perhaps answer’s to long since asked questions and problems, come join us for this exciting journey.  I know I will walk away from this year long journey with a new appreciation for where my journey will take me.


Stamp Happy and be a blessing!

Please excuse the “all thumbs” video.  Here are some answer’s to commonly asked questions.

       as well as 2 weeks for it to be returned.


Q.  What about return postage?
A.  If you are outside of the US, I can send you a paypal request to cover return postage.
      If you are inside the US, Please send a Self Addressed envelope with the same postage
      you sent the swap to me.  Or, you can paypal me postage.


Q.  Is there a Stamp company requirement?
A.  No.  You may use whatever stamps and embellishments you would like.


Q.  Do I need to include a picture of what the finished card should look like.
A.  No, unless you choose to do so.  However, you do need to include instructions.  Please make sure       if you hand write them, that they are ledigible.


Q. What are the sign up and mailing dates?
A. Sign ups 01/01/2015 until 1/10/2015 when I will post the groups. They will need to be           mailed to received by 2/5/2015.  They will be swapped and returned to you within 7 days.


Q.  What type of materials should I use?
A.  Please use quality card stock, patterned papers and embellishments.  Companies such as
      Stampin Up, Close to my Heart and My Favorite things Offer great card stock.  The stuff you
      buy from your big box store is usually pretty flimsy.

A.   Please include your name on all card kits you send.
       Please if you are signing up via paypal or other social media, please let me know what your name
       is.  For example, you may sign up as “iwannastamp”.   You will need to let me know who you            are, as in: “Hello, I’m Loretta, please sign me up.”


Q.  What is the maximum number of sign ups?
A.   I will be doing no more than 25 participants. (Five groups of Five)


Q.  Can I join more than one group?
A.  No.  It gets to be too confusing when it’s time to swap them out.


Q.  How should I pack my card kits?
A.  Each kit should be in an individual baggie with your contact information and all instructions.               You need to please include a return envelope.


If I missed anything, please let me know.  I hope this helps! Stamp Happy and be a Blessing!
