STAMPIN' UP! HAND MADE CHRISTMAS CARD DONATIONS FOR OUR DIGGERS

So this year we would like each of them to be able to send home 1 hand made christmas card each. So our goal for hand made christmas cards this year is 1,000. So come all card makers around australia, please help by starting now and donating christmas cards for the diggers this year.


If we all make one card a week each between now and October 31st i am sure we can reach it. Here are some ways to make it more fun to join in: Why not join NIKKI SADLER in Merry Made Monday. Each monday nikki makes a christmas card design which she does 2 of and one of them gets set aside for the troops, why not join in on MMM and upload your creation each monday. I know i will be joining in.


Organise a Christmas Card making day for the aussie diggers at your place with an open house. May be set aside a family day with all your family to make Christmas Cards for the diggers. Perhaps you could get your church group involved once a month spending a few hours. I know one of the ways we raised many cards last year was at my place, so again this year i will be having christmas cards for the diggers open day on OCTOBER 24th 12pm - 6pm, so keep this date free if you live in sydney, central coast or newcastle regions and come along. It is a great day out and a much worthwhile cause. Maybe even consider one of your stamp clubs being set aside for making cards for the diggers. There are lots of ways in which to have fun making and donating christmas cards.
