Interracial Relationships Raising Mixed Kids

Finding Greeting Cards For My Multicultural Family Isn’t Always Easy…

November 22, 2013

 

 This is a compensated campaign, in collaboration with Hallmark & Latina Bloggers Connect. 
HCR LOGOS - BIGWhen most people need a greeting card, they simply go to the store & buy one, right? They don’t even give it a second thought. Things are a little more difficult when your family isn’t the “typical” looking familia! When I pick out a card, I want it to represent the person I’m buying it for. Whether it’s my African American MIL, my Mexican American Tia, or my multiracial son, I want a card that they can relate to. 

Some stores have nothing that even remotely resembles my family. I refuse to buy a card that doesn’t honor my family…I’d rather make my own instead. (And yes, I have toyed with the idea before, even making my own postcards!) Luckily for me (and maybe you!) Hallmark, has several lines of cards for families like mine. The Sinceramente line appeals to my Latina side.
