Join me to make holiday cards for the troops!

As I mentioned in my post on Sunday, I am hosting a holiday card-making event for Operation Write Home. I will be doing this on October 29th, 6-8pm. If you would like to participate, please email me at scrappinheaven@yahoo.com for directions.

Please bring the following items with you: Holiday themed scrapbook paper and coordinating cardstock, trimmer, adhesive, and embellishments of your choice. I will provide holiday themed stamp sets, ink, colored pencils, watercolor pencils, and chalks for you to use on your cards.

Because this is a charity event, no fee will be charged. Snacks will be provided.

Hope you can join me :)

Join a Worthy Cause - Operation Write Home

I came across an organization called Operation Write Home today on Facebook. After reading their blog, I have been inspired to make cards for this worthy cause.

Here is their mission statement:

To support our nation's armed forces by sending blank greeting cards to write home on, as well as cards of gratitude to encourage them.

I need to iron out the details, but I plan on holding an event before the end of this month to make cards for the troops in time for the holidays. If you live in or near Ouachita Parish and would like to make cards for the troops as well, please visit my blog again on Monday. I will have the details of when/where posted here then.
