Always Here For You Encouragement Card

When a family goes through tough times, this Always Here for You encouragement card is the perfect card to let them know that you’re thinking of them and supporting them. This sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set helps you create heartfelt cards, and also supports Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC).

How You and Stampin’ Up! Support the Ronald McDonald House Charities

For each Sharing Sweet Thoughts stamp set purchased, Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to RMHC. Each year they feature a new RMHC stamp set in the annual catalog. With your help, to date they have donated more than $1.5 million to help keep families close to each other. Win Win! Every little bit makes a difference in caring for sick kids and keeping their families together. You can find more information about the stamp set and the charity on the inside back cover of the Stampin’ Up! 2017-18 Annual Catalog. If you need a copy of the catalog, contact me and I’ll get one out to you! While you’re waiting, you can purchase this stamp set in my online store  here.
