This little project of mine? It’s my way of sprinkling a little joy into the world. Every morning, after I’ve shared my daily dose of inspirational memes on Facebook (because who doesn’t need a good pick-me-up?), I grab my journal for a quick writing session. Then comes my favorite part: sketching.

​​

The sketching started after my stroke in October 2023. That day flipped my world upside down, and I had to adjust to what I lovingly call my “new normal.” But here’s the thing: I’m ridiculously grateful. I mean, sure, life changed, but I’m doing better than so many, and I don’t take that lightly.

​

Now, about the sketching—it wasn’t just a creative outlet. It was therapy, a way to coax my right hand back into action. I’ve always been an artist at heart, and suddenly, those little sketches became something more. They poured out of me, day after day, until one day, I thought, “Why not share these?”

​

So, I started posting them on Facebook. The response? Amazing. That’s when the idea for greeting cards and hit me. Bright, cheerful, uplifting cards that people would actually want to send. I added a twist, too: inside, on the left side, there are lines. Because let’s be real—writing a straight line isn’t everyone’s superpower. (You’re welcome.)

​

So, go ahead, write those heartfelt words inside. Because in a world where texts and DMs rule, nothing beats a handwritten card full of love and you never know what tomorrow may bring.
