Cards for our Troops

 
 
 
Any day is a good day to make cards.  And with some free time on my hands, it's a great time to make cards for the deployed troops.  Operation Write Home is an excellent organization supporting our heroes, making it easier for them to keep in touch with their loved ones at home.  Want more information on OWH and how you too can help, just contact me.

Card Buffet

Yes, it's been a couple months since I have posted anything.  It's not that I haven't been doing anything.  Far from it.  In December I was very busy making nearly 200 Christmas cards for the Bread Basket Ministries, where I volunteer one day a week.  150 of them had 3 poinsettias on the front which were hand cut.  No, I'm not crazy, and it really wasn't that hard.  I would just pop in a movie, put my feet up and start cutting.  Then I had another order from a good friend.  Somewhere in between all this I did manage to get cards out for myself. 

 

 


Earlier this month I was given an amazing gift from a fellow demonstrator and friend.  Due to a family issue, she wasn't able to attend the Stampin' Up Leadership conference in Orlando, Florida and offered it to me.  How could I say no?  I was able to ride with another friend and her sister, and we had an awesome time.  Now my head is full of information to apply to my stamping business.

Now add to all this confusion our wonderful, sweet friend (and my upline), Judy Hogan suffering from cancer.  A small change is being made with my monthly Card Buffet.  As of right now, we will be meeting at Cindy Culpepper's house, and I've switched the day to the first Monday of the month.  That means there will not be a January Card Buffet, but we will meet on Monday, February 4th.
