Seize the Heroes #188

Hello, Today the Design Team and I decided it was time to put the Birthday cards aside for a bit and focus on making some cards for our HEROES during this World Wide Pandemic.  Now, a lot of us focused on Doctors and Nurses, but there are many different people stepping it up and continuing to provide us all with what we need to get through this terrible time.

For instance, you could make a card for; Caregivers, Grocery Workers, Delivery Workers, Custodians, Pharmacists, and even Teachers.  I added teachers as I have seen first hand how hard it has been on them to very quickly change to an online platform.  I am in no way comparing what they do to doctors and nurses but wanted to give you all as many avenues as possible.

Also, MFT has made the Birdie Brown Doctors and Nurses set available in digital till the end of April if you want to go that route and I have linked it up for you HERE!

Our challenge will run just like our other challenges and we will have a Winner's post on April 30th!

If you stopped by and are looking for our Birthday Challenge of Spring Fling that is still going on just scroll down! 

Can't wait to see what you create and who or whom you decide to THANK!
