    Default What shall I do? What shall I do?.....

    I make dolls to give away to VERYsick kids (free including postage)(most go to kids with cancer)

    I put the 4 ready to be sent out to a child down for a nap and covered them with an afghan a dear friend gave me years ago.

    I am thinking of making a 'card' out of this via Flicker or something similar, for regular card sending, and perhaps enclosing it with the dolls when they get sent out, with a copy of the letter that goes from doll to child.

    I'm looking for opinions. Will you give me yours?

    Thanks

    Vickey S.

    You have a excellent idea here. This picture on a card along with the doll is a sweet detail that is perfect. Child and parents will be forever grateful for your loving gift.

    Thank you for your gift of dolls to very sick children.

    Cute idea -

    Maybe take another photo with only three dolls in/on the bed - so they seem less crowded? And more color variety, too, with their 'skins'?

    What about copyright on blanket saying? Might be an issue.
