Today I sponsered a "Cards for the Troops" event in Honor of Nicci Shoudel who is an army nurse stationed in Bagdad. Nicci had told her mom that the soldiers have a hard time finding cards to send home to their families for birthdays and other occassions! Well, I knew I couldn't do much about the dangers, the heat, or the sand, BUT CARDS, NOW THAT'S SOMETHING I CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT! We had approximately 30 people turn out today at St. Peter's United Church of Christ in Champaign and we made approximately 80 Thank You Cards for the Troops and approximately 180 cards (20 Packets) of All Occassion Cards that they can use to send back to their loved ones here at home! We had a great time. New Stampers, Veteran Stampers, Young Stampers, & Old Stampers! WAND TV showed up and interviewed Rhonda (Nicci's Mom) and will air a snipet about our event on the 10:00 PM news tonight!! A HUGE THANKS to all who came and stamped and all who came and helped me pull this off! What do you think? Should I schedule another one and make Christmas Cards for them to send?
I tried to get a picture of everyone who attended but I think I might have missed a couple!! It was fun!! Now to package it all up and ship to Iraq!
