Do you sell your cards?

Hi everyone,
About a month ago I did an FAQ and ran a competition. I’m pleased to announce that I’ve drawn Karyn’s name out to win this competition. Karyn, I’ve emailed you for your address to mail you your prize of a pack of sample Stampin’ Up! papers and ribbons. Congratulations Karyn!
And now to answer Karyn’s question. Karen asked if I sold my cards.
Actually I donate all my cards that I don’t give as gifts. Each month I send my “top 10 sales” team members a ‘congratulations’ card for their efforts in their Stampin’ Up! businesses. Other times I send cards to team members, customers and friends just as a ‘thank you’, ‘thinking of you’ or other such occasions. Then any cards that I have left over I donate to The Ronald McDonald House. I have thought of selling my cards but I get great pleasure in being able to pass them on to be given either to the families that are being supported by Ronald McDonald House, volunteers who give their time to help out at Ronald McDonald house or to sell to raise money to help the charity. I also donate my Christmas cards that I have created to various other charities who particularly want Christmas cards.
Thank you Karyn for entering my competition. I will be answering the other questions asked of me over the next week or so.

Your cards are just gorgeous. If you are ever looking for another charity to donate to, please consider Still Someone. Our website is http://www.stillsomeone.org. We donate handmade cards to nursing home patients and are always in need of card donations. Thanks!
Hello! Love your cards – fantastic inspiration. I’m also looking for somewhere to donate my extra cards. I’ve tried to access the stillsomeone website but it’s not working. Do you know of any other organisations that accept donated cards.
thanks

Hi Nicole, thank you for your kind post. I mostly donate my cards to Ronald McDonald House so you might want to find the one that’s closest to where you live. Also many nursing homes and hospitals also appreciate cards. Good luck
