Cards for the Military

There will be lots of paper, supplies to borrow, and two card-making kits with all of the supplies you will need enclosed.

Please bring a basic kit of

• imagination
• gratitude
• scissors or an X-Acto
• glue
• glue pages
• double-sided tape
• favourite writing tools
• favourite ephemera – stickers, stamps, ribbon, etc. NO glitter please (security reasons).

If you don’t have any of these items, come anyway; we are good at sharing. Come and bring a friend! There will be refreshments and door prizes. Please wear a name tag. If it is wet and mucky or snowing (it is Calgary!), please bring indoor shoes.
