3/$6 Card Making Night - January

Tonight was my monthly card night, which I consistently hold on the third Thursday of each month. Anyone is welcome to attend and come make 3 cards for $6. Each of the cards are pre-designed by me and all of the supplies are prepared ahead of time. I set up three tables and the stampers rotate to each table with their card kits in hand, creating their cards and enjoying some crafty time!

Tonight was a pretty small group of 4 stampers (plus me!) compared to the usual attendance of 8-10. I've had up to 17 before! But, no matter the crowd, I still enjoy my time preparing the cards and spending time crafting with others. Because there were just a few, I was able to sit down with them and stamp away. I had made quite a few kits (just to be prepared!) and so I created the remaining cards to have in my card stash.

Isn't this little guy the cutest little thing?! I made a version of this penguin at a friend's card night and then remembered that I had saved this as an idea to CASE. My inspiration for adding the heart was found HERE.

(I thought adding white on the inside might
be easier for someone to write a message.)
