So, What is The Christmas Love Campaign?

The 'CLC' is a very dear event that I started three years ago shortly after losing my father to cancer.  My dad had lived a life of always doing kind things to ANYONE & EVERYONE. When he passed away suddenly I didn't know what I could do to continue spreading his kindness and love that he showed and gave everyone.. One day at a scrapbooking crop I noticed how kind scrapbookers can be to each other even though most of the time they are total strangers. I noticed that even happens on the internet. Crafters reaching out to other crafters with words of encouragement in hard times and in good times. After seeing this, I approached The Canadian Scrapbooker in the Fall of 2009 and I asked Katharina Doyle and Jackie Ludlage if I could write an article for their magazine on a topic that was very important to me, entitled 'Scrap Matters'. It talked about the awesome power of arts, crafts, and scrapbooking and I asked people how they brightened other peoples day by being creative?

'Simple Acts of Creative Kindness is an AWESOME TOOL!'

  This is the 3rd Annual Christmas Love Campaign.

When: November 4,2011 - January 4,2012

  "Last year it was amazing, I had stories coming from all over the globe from all ages of people who where sharing some CHRISTMAS LOVE. People brightening a total strangers day by giving them a homemade card or a little piece of art. Over in Singapore, I even had a papercrafter write in to tell how she had been making these beautiful ornaments for hurricane victims. It really has touched my heart"
