Card Donations for an Animal Sanctuary

 I'm making a bunch of boxed sets of cards to donate to an animal sanctuary that has pigs, cows, goats, sheep and a couple of chickens. They have frequent fundraisers for food, snacks, bedding, property upkeep, vehicles, medical costs and so much more. So these cards will be going toward their art crawl fundraiser coming up in a couple of months.

 I was able to make 5 sets of 6 cards out of the products I used in this video. I have plans for more card sets, but I have deadlines to finish this week and then I will get back to the donations.

 

I hope you enjoy this little walk though of my process making 30 cards with Unity Stamp Co stamps and Whimsy Stamps papers.

As you can see it all began with stamping all the images, coloring them, and fussy cutting them. Next I cut all 30 6x6 Barnyard papers into 4x5.25 back grounds and I stamped 10 with the Unity Cows, 10 with the Unity smiling pig and 10 with the Unity spotted pig. That way when I added the fussy cut colored pigs and cows onto the backgrounds all the little details showed. 

Next I fussy cut all the sentiments I had stamped, and added the sentiments and put all the card fronts onto kraft card bases. I added an envelope for each on and put them in one of these kraft window boxes. Then so the rescue could tell which set of six to send to the supporters who purchase them. I added twine and tied a tag with a letter on the back for easy reference. Then I added the photos below to the back of each box so they knew which cards were in the boxes as well.

I am not an affiliate with Unity Stamp Co as they are a small family owned business in Minnesota, but if you order stamps from them, let them know you heard about them from me.
