The Thomas Titan volleyball team met after school a few weeks ago to make "Thinking of You" cards to send to the troops. They made 25 cards which were sent to a young man who grew up in our neighborhood who is now in Afghanistan. The cards are for Anthony to share with his friends so they have pretty cards to send home.
One of the ways I take care of my customers is through 'Hostess Club'. Each month a group of ladies gets together to stamp a few projects and one of the ladies is the hostess (she gets the FREE hostess goodies based on the sales from that night).
This Thursday night is a special edition of the hostess club, because when Sasha is the hostess is also a guest designer of the class. Sasha is a talented artist and always designs cooks up something cool. Her ornament box design features cherry cobbler, with a zing of wild wasabli and a kick of early espresso. This month the two projects are: an ornament box to hold gift tags and a 3D gift tag!
Guests are always welcome to attend hostess club! Email me for more information!
