You left me a comment on JustJonesen regarding giving hope to people who have had miscarriages--thank you so much, that's what I wanted to do, because I didn't see many stories of success looking around and I wanted people to know that it can happen. Thank you...Ivyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08557506759441268062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430862611386645227.post-71709825979648807572009-05-19T14:23:00.000-04:002009-05-19T14:23:00.000-04:00I like the idea!I like the idea!Emaleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01064444532340246009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430862611386645227.post-83310850033159735382009-05-19T08:43:00.000-04:002009-05-19T08:43:00.000-04:00Thanks, all!

Thanks! <br /><br />I had not thought to do this as a swap.. I ran a Mother's Day swap a few years ago and some people never sent their items. I want people who need a lift to get some cards without any strings attached. When they are feeling better or a little stronger they can jump in and send a card to another mom who needs some care.<br /><br />Holly- thanks! ;0) I love it more the more I play around with it<br /><br />AnnaMarie- I agree! I love getting cards in the real mail- it is a nice break from the bills, ha! And means a lot to know someone is thinking of me. People I don't even know in real life care about me. Crazy. <br /><br />Corilee- thanks- I agree the world can use more awareness and sympathy.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14307488368657585482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430862611386645227.post-11331960706481296572009-05-19T00:06:15.449-04:002009-05-19T00:06:15.449-04:00What a great idea!

I have been exchanging sympathy/support cards with several of my blogging friends for a while now and it is so helpful to receive a card in the mail. I buy cards but one very talented friend made the most beautiful cards! For me, a card in sent through the mail is much different from an e-card; I keep all of the cards on display for constant reminders that there are people who understand and care about my son.<br /><br />It is hard to find appropriate cards though so being able to design your own would be useful.<br /><br />I love the card you sent! It is very pretty!

Don't know how helpful a model it would be, but something like http://www.atcsforall.com/ they are all set up with a forum where art swaps are happening in the hundreds probably! Maybe the thousands. I don't do a lot there, but I read, lurk, and do at least two or three swaps a year. It's an interesting way to connect with other artist, making small pieces of art, easily mail-able. Just a thought...<br />miracles!<br />k-Kara Chipoletti Jones of GriefAndCreativity dot comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110578035201758404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430862611386645227.post-58749024243772807212009-05-18T13:30:00.000-04:002009-05-18T13:30:00.000-04:00Emily, I LOVE this idea!!

Here's an idea for you, what about tying it into the Aloha Remembered site in some way? Always Alohas or some such title just so there is a "connection".. I would sign up to send cards/little gifts to another bereaved mom..<br /><br />Didn't check the cardgiving site yet as I should be workign... <br /><br />(HOw DO you come up with these ideas? I keep searching for somethign to DO to honor Seth.. some kind of ministry like "Aloha Remembered" is .. so far, I"m not coming up with anything I think I can handle..)Kathryn @ Expectant Heartshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629955139973507828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-430862611386645227.post-70347207197158487282009-05-18T13:29:00.000-04:002009-05-18T13:29:00.000-04:00I like the idea.

I tried to keep up with sending gifts / cards to the people I talked to the most for their angel's special days but after a while it got to be too much, though I still try. (but admittedly, the last year or so I have not kept up with anyone's dates, so right now people are lucky to get an email from me which makes me feel like a lousy friend for not doing more)<br /><br />another idea along the same lines is if you want to make it more like a swap thing, but a permanent swap. each person is set up with one, two or even 3 other swap friends, and those are the only ones they purchase for, and receive from.Terhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08427090425449970893noreply@blogger.com
