  I took card kits to the Stride Program of Winchester, KY.  Stride is this wonderful agency that helps many adults with various types of disabilities to live fuller lives.  My Daughter is the Coordinator of the  Day program and she allowed us to come down and create cards with her clients.  We had so much fun and they are wonderful crafters!  Below are just a few pictures of their wonderful creations!  I cant wait until I get to come down again and make cards with my new friends at Stride!
