World Card Making Day

Saturday was World Card Making Day.  Some of my team members and I hosted a fun Bingo event - with stamping of course.  We had 22 ladies come to play 5 games of Bingo.

 

We played 3 games of Bingo, then took a break to make our cards - two each of two designs.  The cards were quick and easy to make.  I didn't even give these ladies a chance to sit down - because I knew they would soon be moving on to the next table to finish up the cards!

We also had a table with lots of cards and a list of people who would be blessed by receiving a hand made card - some were nursing home residents and others were fighting cancer or other illnesses.   We asked the ladies to take a minute or two to write a note to one of the people on the list.



After stamping we played two more games of bingo.  Below are the first four winners with their prizes - fabulous Stampin' Up! products.


Our 5th game is always a "Jackpot" game where the prize is a Stampin' Up! gift certificate.  We set aside $5 from each registration fee for the jackpot prize - plus we sell additional cards if anyone wants an extra chance to win.  The jackpot on Saturday reached $140.  And the winner was..............


                                                    


Beverly - a first time stamper!  She was a last minute addition - taking the place of someone who was unable to attend! 

Beverly decided to use her gift certificate to purchase a 6 month Paper Pumpkin subscription - plus a few additional items!  That was a great decision for a beginner stamper.  Everything she needs to make awesome paper crafting projects will be delivered right to her doorstep!

It's not too late to take advantage of the BOGO sale on Paper Pumpkin.  First time subscribers who sign up by October 10 using the promo code: BOGO, will receive the October kit PLUS the November kit will ship for FREE!!!
