Over the years, Melanie sent us many great messages that she believed belonged on cards … and we always agreed! The challenge was finding images that lived up to Melanie’s words.
Finally, in 2022, we found just the right combination! Melanie’s first Cardthartic card message actually became two cards — New Baby designs that featured tiny toes curled around felt hearts … one heart in pink and another blue.
Melanie was thrilled. “My heart has been smiling since I received word that you were turning a message I suggested into two New Baby cards. The images you chose are perfect, and I know most parents and grandparents totally agree: our hearts are captured, forever … So thankful!”
This Contributing Cardie says she’s been faithfully sending Cardthartic cards for years. “I love sending these precious words with perfect art that touch the heart!” she says. “With technology, much has been gained, but much has been lost, too. One such loss being writing letters and sending cards. Cardthartic cards make your reasons for sending them personal, like sending love in an envelope!”
Some of the cards that Melanie says touch her most are for grief support. She especially loves sending, “Some people are missed more than words can say … and more than hearts should have to feel.”
On a lighter note, she laughs, “You Know You’re a Cardie When … every time you go to cardie-central.rsslink.dev/, your cart gets really full!”
