Sounds good, Donna.
 
Ok, Donna, Terri & Nancy, you can start advertising each others stores. Choose how you want to do it:
 
1. Advertise the store on the same day every week.
2. Rotate the day you advertise a store. If you advertise Donna's store on Monday, then next week you'll do it on Tues. The following week on Wed and so on. (I hope that makes sense)
 
Use whatever forum you have to advertise (Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc.) Please advertise at least once per store per week. You can do more if you want. Do NOT put up an individual card without a watermark.  
 
Let's help each other.    (Don't forget to advertise your own)

Hi Donna, that's fine. Anything that goes out to the internet can help. If you don't receive specific cards from people, then just use their store url. Until we get really going people may not want to give out cards. Not sure. Anyone in our group is welcome to give Donna a link to specific cards. Please make sure they have watermarks.

My response to you question would have to be my husband and our local Vet Center.  My husband is a Vietnam Veteran and he has PTSD. We've been going to counseling at the center for two years. It's really helped. He has group meetings once a week and I go to a wives meeting a couple times a month. The people at the center have become like family. Our counselors and the other vets are wonderful! We love it there.  
 
So, my inspiration is my husband and all the other veterans we've met. These men and women are amazing. I decided I wanted to give something back to them, so my greeting cards store and Zazzle Military Gear store were born.

I've started out with a new blog on a developing website spotlighting my own creative influences and the response from Sherry.  I've been able to add images that are links direct to a few sample cards (Sherry, if you want them removed, let me know - when clicked, they go right to your image in your store).

If you want me to add your comments with links to your store and a few cards perhaps highlighting your style or your best sellers, feel free.  This blog has been tweeted and shared on my FB page and I hope to share it on my personal page and spread news of it.
