Cards for our Soldiers

Each year I have a few occasions where customers can make some Christmas cards for Australia soldiers.  These are divided into packs of ten then sent to soldiers serving overseas to send back to their loved ones.

Last week I had two free classes where everyone made cards then left them behind.  One of my ladies took the photo above (thanks Margaret!)

We also made a bunch of cards at the catalogue launch and at a recent stamp-a-stack at my sisters.

 

Two years ago when we started contributing to this idea, we made 200 cards..last year we made 322...this year we made a grand total of 380!

 

Update!!  At the end of October we received 125 more cards from one of my team members mothers and her craft group.  That takes our total to 505!  Wow!!

 

Thanks so much to all the ladies who donated their time to make all these beautiful cards.  Thanks also for contributing to the 'envelope fund.'  We had a lot of fun making these cards and knowing that they are going to a worthy cause.
