Our first meeting!

Our first meeting!

First Meeting

Our first meeting is TOMORROW from 10am-12noon at LoneStar CyFair Public Library Room # 131!!!!

I'm getting all my supplies together (I have A LOT to bring) and I CAN'T WAIT!

Please contact me if you have any questions or don't have all your supplies together. We can make it work.

Also, if you have pillowcases/t-shirts (adult sizes only) that you can donate these can be used to make the dresses/shorts for Africa. Even if you can't sew you can help! (Also, these are VERY simple and I can show you how to sew if you want to learn.)

Hope to see you there!

How to Save on Your Krafting Kindness Supplies!

Combine and Use These Coupons at Joann Fabrics:

50% Joann
40% Joann
40% Joann (Sign-up for email)
40% Hobby Lobby (JoAnn will match this coupon)
40% Michael's (JoAnn will match this coupon)
15% Michael's (JoAnn will match this coupon)

***You can print these all out OR just show them to the cashier on your phone at checkout***

You can get 40-50% off of 5 items AND 15% off of any additional items at JoAnn Fabrics!

If you plan to scrapbook I HIGHLY recommend getting the Xyron Create A Sticker. This can be costly ($25). But, if you use a 50% off coupon it's only $12.50! JoAnn Fabrics won't let you use coupons on this item and Hobby Lobby won't price match a JoAnn Coupon...So.......Plan to buy this item at Michael's with the 50% Joann Coupon.

Hope this helps you save some money...can't wait for our first meeting!

Logo

UPDATE:

1. Working on a logo for Krafting Kindness.
2. Heard back from Crops of Luv and they'd LUV to have our support. They are in need of Thumper & Pluto embellishments so that will be our first scrapbooking project.
3. Hopefully I'll be able to swing getting the Silhouette Cameo for the first meeting because I've found several pluto & thumper designs that should work well.
