We have no project planned for Tuesday’s meeting.... so let’s all pitch in and bring one or two items
that you can’t craft without!! For example, your favorite tool, favorite stamp, ink, etc. I think you get
the idea. 
Also, if you have something that you purchased but now wonder why did I buy that ?  Bring it as well ...

Let’s have lots of fun with this one. 
 
We need someone to do a project for the March 9 meeting. Geri is doing an Easter card for the meeting 

of Februrary 23.

                        Stamping Around the Villages


Our meeting will be on Tuesday November 10 at 6:00PM at the Seabreeze Rec.
You are required to wear a face mask.

Debbie will be sharing the easy napkin card with you. The supplies you will need to bring will be:

Cardstock for a card base any color you would like.

Cardstock for a mat to put your napkin on. White works best for me. You can put it on color card stock but it will change the look of the napkin.

A glue stick… yes it needs to be a glue stick, like Elmers School glue or Scotchs glues stick.

Adhesive of your choice if you want to adhere your mat to your card base with something other than the glue stick.

A pair of long blade scissors. If you have one of those little guillotine cutters that would work but your slide blade paper cutter will not work on the ‘napkin’ mat part of the project.

Embellishments – I put some glitter glue on mine. Glitter glue takes a while to dry so if you are going to do this I would suggest you do it after you get it home. I also used brads, rhinestones and punched leaves.

Sentiments – for the inside and outside.

I will bring napkins, some punched out leaves, some fall sentiments for the outside of the card and my guillotine cutter.
