Parents, educators, humans- anyone who’s feeling like paying it forward a wee bit! I’m collecting (& creating) valentines, love notes, greeting cards/postcards – you’d like to create!
PLEASE begin creating NOW- All cards will be collected by February 4. They can be simple and sweet- not too sassy, but always loving for our elderly friends.
Here are the details:
1. These are for the elderly. They will be distributed to nursing facilities ( everyone needs love! 
)
2. Please do not put your cards in an envelope – elderly hands sometimes have difficulty with that.
3. Please don’t use glitter.
4. Cards created by children and adults. Everyone is welcome! The more cards we receive, the more love we can share!
5. Please sign your cards – these are going to real people! A sentiment and a signature makes it more personal

Card Project 2024
I have seen the power that a simple card can have. Reaching out to someone, usually for no special reason at all, can change a day. remind someone they are loved, they make a difference. Greetings 4 Good is more than stationery for me, it is a way to change my corner of the universe. I invite you to reach out to strangers, with your powerful love and a little creativity! This is an updated list of a call for cards for those being treated for cancer, and those who reside in nursing facilities. Thank you in advance! (please no glitter on any of the cards!)
Crazy isn’t it? What began as a way to share my art has become a mission for me. When I am blessed by receiving a card (particularly for no reason) it brightens my day, makes me feel loved, changes the view a bit. Now I am aware that I am not the only one who feels this way- so… I want to provide greeting cards that you are proud to send. Art cards, thoughtful cards, downright fun cards!
In January I committed to sending at least 365 cards out to friends, family, and strangers. I am proud to say that I have tipped the scales to over 903 cards as of today, August 1, 2021. Some have been mailed, some dropped off to underserved communities, some hidden in library books, some, well… you know if you have found one.
I invite you to join me in this mission. Send a card- for no reason at all. Just reach out, because you care. I promise you, the reward is equal to your spirit as it is to the intended recipient. SHARE THE LOVE!
Due January 31, 2023

Update December 2020
In December many of you helped us to create HUNDREDS of holiday cards. It was so wonderful to see the response. One of the places blessed by our community thoughtfulness was a place a friend works for in Canandaigua- M.M. Ewing Continuing care center. Here is an article about our donation- Thank you for all you do!
so much love….

The thoughtfulness project began long ago. It started with a box of cards in the corner of my studio, ready to go when I thought it might be needed. Cards sent to a loved one who was grieving, a stranger who needed someone to care, or a shut-in needing a little lifeline. As it happens, cards travel pretty easily. I always went with my heart, sending a card (especially the ones for no reason) when I felt led to do so.
Since then it has evolved into many things. It is about paying it forward, it is about seeing a need and trying to fill it, it is about actively caring for my fellow human, it is about listening to my heart, and following that path.
Currently, I take 20% of the profits from each card I sell to fund this project. The results of which might be school supplies for students in need, cards for shut-ins, a creative project to inspire, or a donation check written to a non-profit.
It doesn’t stop there. This is much more to me than just a way to reach out. This is my answer to actively seeking a way to help my fellow human. I sometimes say, “I will change the world, one card at a time.” I believe that! This project grows right along with me. I lead with my heart, find the next step, and joyfully take it.
What I want you to know, is that when you purchase a card from me, you help me make a difference! A portion of every sale goes to this effort. So the card you purchase and send, gives twice. What a wonderful world this can be!
Thank you for helping to fuel this project-
Susan
