these will be attached toboxes witha chistmas ornament inside - the ornament is a glass ball with a personalized ribbon tied and then the edges glued down on (ok, sounds uglier than it is !)
i 'borrowed' the donation version from on here b/c it was awesome!! (also note that each card will ave a lung cancer pin ribbon attached to it too)
here's what we re-worded it to be...i don't know if i love it though - can anyone help??? (thanks in advance!) -------------------------------------------------- With much thought and consideration, we have chosen a special way, To say 'Thank You' for sharing our wedding day, In lieu of a traditional wedding favor, we are giving you all two, Please hang the enclosed on your tree every year and smile as you do, Since November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month, please wear this pin to support research being done, It represents a donation to ALCASE, the Alliance for Lung Cancer: Advocacy, Support and Education. We feel the finest gift is one which helps cure something that has touched our lives of late, We want to again thank you for all the support, love and kindess we’ve received - it sure has been great!
All Our Love, Deirdre and Michael ----------------------------------------------------

That is beautiful. FHs dad passed away from lung cancer and we are thinking about doing a donation. Where did you get the pins from?
