My party was initially planned for tomorrow, but one of my friends made plans and needed the party moved up, so we did it today. Unfortunately, she had a family emergency earlier this week, as did 3 other guests, so only 1 of my friends could make it today anyway :/ There will be other cardmaking parties in the future tho, so no worries, right?!
Here is a pic of all the fun foods my wonderful husband and I made (mini burgers and chips n dip) :
Here is a pic of one of the prizes I put together for each of my guests (several sheets of 12X12 scrapbook paper, 1 box of adhesives, some stickers, ribbon, rubber stamps and chipboard along with some other goodies):
And finally, here is a pic of my only guest and my son who thought he was being a good helper (not too bad for a 2 1/2 year old!) :
And lastly, here are the kits I put together for all my guests (180 cards total):
made 80 cards
made 20 cards

made 20 cardsI hope you all enjoyed this post as much as I did putting it together! Its been a busy week here making sure everything was put together and done for my guests, so now I have to re-check the OWH Stars & Stamps Blog to get making my sketch #32 and the midweek throwdown! I hear there are some goodies to win :)
Take care and I hope my party inspired some of you out there to put together your own and get crafting!!

What adorable kit cards, Sara!! I'm sorry folks weren't able to make it, but maybe another time - it's not about how many, it's about getting together to share our love of crafting!

Great job on the kits, you did all the work! I love making card for the soldiers, seems like you do too. TFS
ReplyDeletei DO love making cards for the soldiers! i wished my husband knew about OWH when he was deployed, i would have loved to have gotten a card like these in the mail :) soldiers do a lot for our country and i feel like the little bit i do for them helps them to at least keep in touch with their families back home :)
ReplyDeleteThat is so great of you to make kits! I would love to have a in person party some time, I bet it is a ton of fun!
ReplyDeleteHow did it go?
i liked making the cards lol...easier that way sometimes.....and if ur ever out here in germany lol we can always scrounge up some stuff to have an in-person party :) im always up for crafting parties lol
ReplyDeleteonly 1 of 10 invited guests showed up, but at least someone came lol....had to make a lot of the kits myself, but it was still fun, only took me a weekend too lol.....it was my 1st organized party, so hopefully next time will have a better turnout
