I Feel the Love Project- January 2013


Welcome to Funky Cards

In loving memory, the I feel the Love Project would like to pay tribute to Victoria Leigh Soto (Vicki), a first grade teacher at Sandy Hook Elementary. She lost her life on 12.14.12, but six or seven (still to be confirmed) students in her classroom survived that day because of her selfless actions. It is those students that we will be making cards for this month. They are not to be forgotten. They too have suffered a tremendous loss and have experienced a tragedy that will forever change their lives. We will be making Valentine's Day cards/cards with hearts on them for these wonderful kids. All projects should be colorful and uplifting. These children are all first grade students.  

In addition, we will be collecting cards for Ms. Soto's family. These can be pretty blank cards, thinking of you cards, or any appropriate, uplifting cards that one would send to a family member after a loss. Please be sure to sign your cards. Ms. Soto's family members include her mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. Soto (Carlos and Donna); her sisters, Jillian and Carlee; and her brother, Carlos Matthew. Among Ms. Soto's favorite things are the color green and flamingos. 

If you would like to be a part of this project...

All you need to do is:

Submit your card/s by January 31st to:

  3. Happy new year Madison. Another great project as i have been busy making valentine's cards for kids already.
    I wanted to tell you that I already sent cards to all of the families of the students and the teachers to let them know that they weren't forgotten in Canada and that i would be praying for them.

  5. This is so awesome. I have never participated in a group like this before and with a New Year, I am going to accomplish new things. I plan on having some paper play time this weekend and will keep your project in mind.
    I hope your new year is filled with many, many great blessings. Happy New Year Madison!
