Participants will also learn more about the “cupid crew,” a group who makes sure a card you create gets to people in long-term care who really need a pick-me-up. We look forward to creating and spreading the love with you!

If you choose to make cards with us, you will need the following supplies:

  • heavy card stock- 81/2” x 11”, Valentine colors- solids and/or patterned- 8-12 sheets
  • glue stick
  • decorative paper with Valentine colors and patterns
  • scissors
  • scrap sheets of paper to use as a gluing surface and to make templates
  • ruler

  • red, black and white gel pen
  • envelopes for your cards- example: 4 3/8” x 5 3/4” or 5 1/4” x 7 1/4”
