Default Father's day cards for our troops

Hi all. I am part of an organization called soldier's angels who support our deployed troops. I have just finished mailing mother's Day cards for the troops to send home to the Mom who must surely be applauded for raising these fine young men and women! I can't imagine what it must be like to have your "baby" in harms way day and night! So now I am collecting Father's day cards for those "Dads" who must be just as proud as Moms and just as worried. If yoiu would like to make some Father's day cards for them please mail them to me @ Sue Salsburg 11637 Elton Rd Navarre Oh 44662. If you have any questions please email me at [email protected]. Please also include your email address with the cards you send so that I can forward the thanks from our troops! The cards I mailed for Mother's day were incredible and a friend who does these cards gave me this site~~ I have gotten even more requests for Father's Day cards! It is a wonderful way to show our men and women overseas we have not forgotten about them and we appreciate all they are doing! Thanks for reading this I look forward to hearing from some of you...God Bless our troops Sue

Default Would like to have cards by end of April

It takes about two to three weeks for mail to arrive to troops depending on where they are stationed..some ships are longer why?? I don't know..but then time to hand out, time to write to dad, and get back in mail...Not sure how often they have mail pick up?? But if we get them there by Mid May should be plenty of time for them to plan on time home( I am sure each soldier knows time mail takes to arrive at their home)

Thanks(((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))) for all of you

Default Cards for troops

I am getting some ready to mail tomorrow.
Just so I know - are you able to send them postage free as well?
Thank you for doing this.

Would you prefer cards blank inside? I have 4 ready - plan on making some more and thought - you might want them blank for writing inside????

both blank and with Happy Father's Day are awesome....they can add a note inside any card as they have free postage so bulky is not an issue for them! I think the variety is great...kind of gives everyone something! I look forward to getting the cards to mail out to Iraq..........the guys are so thankful and so am I to have found so many wonderful people who are so willing to help! God Bless each of you!!!!!!!!!!!
