Feature Friday: Some of Our Youngest Cardmakers!
We feature a different cardmaker each Friday…This week, we have very special guests: Hallie and Taylor, two young girls from Florida, and their grandma Denise! Please feel free to leave a comment on this thread for the girls!
If your kids would like to make cards for our heroes, we would love to show off their artwork here; if their cards are use-able for our service members to write home on, that’s fantastic; if the cards are more…’creative’…have them write a note inside to a hero!

Wow, and WOW again- I love every one of them. They are so good, I would never have thought a child had made them, they put some of my cards to shame. Thank you girls, your work is outstanding

Hi there! Hallie I really like your card with the pretty red bird on it. I think you may have made or picked out a watercolor background for it that is just perfect! And I like the one with the two mice hanging onto the dragonfly, too.
And Taylor, I really like your "miss you" card. The picture really tells a story. I also like the one you made with the eagle and stars on the cover. I especially like how you tore the edge of the red paper. It's nice.
You've both made some amazing cards! Thanks for sharing them with our heroes!

Where to begin?
Hallie: your red bird card is so pretty, the swirly-looking background is just perfect. Another favorite are those cute house mice, great coloring. And your squares & buttons card is perfect!
Denise: lovely serenity prayer card, those corner punches are beautiful. On your sympathy card, the swiss dots and the felt flower are the perfect embellishments.
Taylor: The howling pup & the Miss You are so sweet. On the two patriotic cards, your coloring is wonderful & your sense of balance is right-on. They are all fantastic!
Great job, girls!!!

Ladies, your cards are wonderful. Hallie and Taylor, I'm so excited to see your terrific cards. You did a fabulous job on them. I can't pick out a favorite among them. Denise, your cards are lovely, and you must be very proud of your granddaughters' artwork and their contributions to CFH.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughtful and encouraging words.
I am very proud of the girls and we have started to include my 2 year old granddaughter - Zoey who loves to stamp and my 7 year old Kayleigh who is starting to color the images. A great way to spend quality time with the grands.
Again thanks for the heartwarming messages.
