Angela's Happy Stamper
Greetings, friends!

I know you will find this shocking, but it's HOT here!  What better way to spend these hazy, humid summer days than inside....stamping!  And, if you're tired of staring at your four walls, come stamp with us!  Our A/C is working and we have lots of classes and things to do upcoming.  So join us!
Fondly,
Angela

Operation We R Grateful!

Operation Write HomeWe R Memory Keepers (the makers of Crop-a-Dile) is sponsoring a card contest to benefit Operation Write Home.  This organization collects cards to send to troops stationed all over the world to send home to their family.  We are thrilled to serve as a Drop Zone for this contest.  Here are the details:  Drop off your handmade cards by July 31.  Don't use glitter (it can make the troops visible at night).  Line the inside of dark cards with a light paper to make writing easier.  Include an envelope.  On the back of the card, write Operation Write Home.  Fill out an entry form at the shop for us to include with your cards.  Cards must fall into one of the following categories:  Love (Anniversary/Missing You/Thinking of You), Any Hero, Thank you, Birthday, Holiday or Get Well.  Only one form per category per person is required.  We R Memory Keepers will choose several winners for fabulous prizes from all of the entries.  Plus, if our store collects the most cards, we will win prizes we can give away as well, including a crafting cruise for one of our customers!  Wow!  Visit their website for more details, and start dropping off those cards!
