More pics of the Alberta Flood Fundraiser

I could not pass up sharing these last photos with you.  The kids (and teens) were great stampers, so serious and "into" creating the cards.

And some were in to getting the raisin cookies!! 

After the event the kids and I assembled the remaining kits!

 Thanks Andrew and Nathan for helping me pull this together in less than two days!

 Great photography too, Nathan!

Cheers,

Great day! Alberta Flood Fundraiser!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone to everyone who attended the fundraiser yesterday.  

Despite my worry that no one would come I had over 50 people attend the event and we made 74 cards (37 kits).  The total donation so far is $480 plus I have 10 kits remaining.  If you are interested in purchasing a kit of 2 birthday cards for $10 contact me ASAP!  All the pieces are inside, peel and stick, plus add some kid creativity and voila!   I'd love to be able to donate the full $580 to the Alberta Flood Fund by the end of the weekend!  

Thank you to my sister, Stephanie who baked yummy cookies for everyone to have after they created!

Check out the fun!

Pinwheels made!

Tables set and ready for the kids!

These were some pretty creative kids!

Thanks for a great day and I hope you enjoyed making your cards!

I . . . think . . . I'm . . . ready

Hey there

Yesterday I was skipping around the house with excitement after each email, phone call or text I received to sign up for this last minute fundraiser I'm trying to pull together.  I hope I have all my bases covered but we'll only know until I try it once!

A couple of things I learned:

1) Andrew does not like crafts (I already knew this but he reminded me several times today), but he is VERY good at math and helped me figure out how many pinwheels and flowers I had to prep.  LOTS!

2) Nathan is VERY good and fast at making pinwheels (much faster than he is at eating).  I had to help with the brad part but in terms of forming them - he's the best!

3) I have the best friends and customers EVER!  Thank you for all the offers of help to prepare, bake and much more for this fundraiser.  Thanks to everyone who shared this event on facebook and emailed it to friends and of course signed up and brought your kids.  You are all so generous!

Here are a couple of pics of the kids and I getting ready for today!

 I hope to have more pictures to share tomorrow.

Cheers, 
K
