Tuesday night a small group of Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators went to the Ronald McDonald House to stamp cards with the house guests.  We go once a month and each of us take turns designing and preparing a card for everyone to make.  This month Joyce designed the card.

This month the card featured the Flight of the Butterfly stamp set and the new 1/8″ ribbon.  I asked if I could take pictures of everyone making their cards.  The kids are always so proud of their creations.  We get kids of all ages and sometimes parents too.  Both the boys and the girls come stamp with us.  Here are some pictures of us from Tuesday night.

This month Joyce, Jenn (the Stampin’ Up! team leader for this house), myself and a new volunteer, Linda, met at the house.

Cari Olson the House Manager at the Peachtree Dunwoody House took some time when we were done to show us a new video story about the Ronald McDonald House and one of the families that stays there. It is the story of Elsie – I hope you will watch it.

Ronald McDonald House Video Story

Elsie stays at the house we volunteer at and while I haven’t personally seen her we told Cari to call us and we would plan a special stamping day for her because she loves to do crafts.  We only visit once a month but maybe with more Stampin’ Up! volunteers we can do this twice a month.  If you’d like to volunteer with us let me know and I’ll pass your information onto Jenn – the Stampin’ Up! team leader for this house.

Here is a link to the website for the Atlanta Ronald McDonald House charities – CLICK HERE.  Stampin’ Up! is a National Sponsor of the Ronald McDonald House charities.  Stampin’ Up! donates $100,000 annually, each year they design an exclusive stamp set and a portion of the sales are donated, they donate items to houses in the cities where events are held, and they facilitate the program that allows demonstrators to volunteer at the houses by bringing stamping to the families.

It’s BINGO TIME!  Today we are starting Round 1 of Monika’s Blog Bingo.  The players have been finalized and all Bingo Cards were emailed out yesterday so we are ready to play.  If you missed getting into Round 1 before it filled you can sign up for a future round – Round 2 is full and I’m taking names for Round 3 right now.  See this POST for more details.

Here is piece #1 – the cat image from the All in the Family stamp set (in Peach Parfait).

Have a great day!
