card making night- great success

On August 15, 2014, the Manresa Columbiettes Council held a 'social night' where everyone was invited to come and make cards for Wounded Warrior Project.  Megan spent weeks preparing and making Cricut 'cuts' for friends to glue on cards of encouragement.  While the event was being held, Megan, Danielle, and  Nicolas, and I continued to make more cuts. Megan made soldiers (everyday Paper dolls with camo clothes), puppies, kittens, monkeys, children playing pianos, and flowers.  With just a few people on a warm summer night, we completed 135 cards!!!!  It was a great night and we plan on doing it a few times a year.  It was wonderful seeing the cards all turn out so differently- we brought lots of embellishments and how inspiring to see how creative people are.  Every card was different.  We glued, sang, and had a great time.  Megan also brought the Expression and this old reliable machine kept turning out more cuts all night.
