Welcome to Altenew’s annual Celebrating Parents Card Drive Blog Hop!
Mother’s Day and Father’s Day are approaching and this can be a difficult time for seniors who are in nursing homes or shelters. We want these important people to feel loved, celebrated, and honored, so we have organized the Celebrating Parents Card Drive (visit the link for more details).
Here is a card I created to celebrate. Scroll down to the bottom of the post to see the products I used!

Such a great idea, Jennifer, & I love your card! It makes me think spring is near!
Beautiful card! That stamp set is gorgeous. So good to think of our seniors, especially when the frailest are so isolated.
What a beautiful card for your Grandma. I can just see her beaming face aglow with love and pride for you Jennifer!
I love all your work and videos!
Our Dads are both gone now, but I’d love to make my step dad, “Papa” a beautiful card for fathers day. I hoping to have the Altenew letters that lay well together and another stamp/die set to go with that.
Thank you for your inspiration,
Lora from Michigan
A wonderful idea! I’ve been making cards for donation to a few charities and would be happy to send some your way!
What a lovely idea, especially during these difficult times!
Great idea.
I have this set and never thought to watercolor it! Brilliant!
Beautiful card and a wonderful cause!
Great cause & what a beautiful card!
What a wonderful project and thank you for hosting the hop. I know the residents will appreciate knowing they are not forgotten or alone. I am always awed by your company and those who join you in efforts to make the world a better, kinder place – THANK YOU! For all the guest designers also a big hug and THANK YOU for your efforts to to make this successful! All the projects were so gorgeous and up lifting.
Love this project! As always you have created beautiful cards to inspire all of us.
This is such a beautiful card. Thanks
Beautiful watercoloring and great card for a special grandma.
Such a wonderful idea and more so during these troubled times.
Beautiful cards!!! My grandma would love to receive that card
This is a great idea to support seniors. I love the card.
In these trying times, think how lonely so many people must be. No visitors or contact with loved ones. A card will certainly bring a smile to their face. Card makers have a lot of heart.
This is the perfect way to send love to those who feel the most isolated right now, and also the perfect way for everyone everywhere who are looking for a way to lift others up! Thank you so much for hosting this and for all the inspiration! I can’t wait to get creating!
What a lovely card. I need to remember to check out that link. I’m such a procrastinator: (
This card drive is such a fabulous idea! I’m sure the recipients are so blessed by those who send cards. And this card is so pretty!! Love the artsy feel to it.
A wonderful idea for a card drive and simply lovely inspiration!
Beautiful cards.
This is a wonderful idea.
How thoughtful of you to do such a wonderful card drive. Kudos to you.
Such a sweet gesture. It is really nice how we can bring jot in others’ lives through card making.
This is such a good cause. Thank you for hosting this! Altenew products makes it so easy to create beautiful cards!
What a great idea!! :)
Great cause ! You are amazing !
This is a great idea!
The celebrating parents drive is such an awesome idea! Both of my parents are gone, so not only does it give the seniors a lift it gives me a lift to have parents to send cards to!
What a great idea!
This is such a great cause! I hope many crafters are gonna send their cards!
Celebrating Parents is a wonderful idea. Just make sure you add the “I love you”. Great idea, pass it on.
The card is beautiful. This grandma would love to receive that card.
