Valentines Volunteering

I was delighted to help the residents at Chrysalis make Valentine's Day cards for their children.  We attended during their weekly fellowship for dinner and crafting.

I set up supplies for our project in a side room so we could spread out.


Here is one of the card options.  This one has a Laffy Taffy tucked inside for a sweet treat surprise!


I used the Hey Love stamp set for the designs.  They could choose any of the 6 animals for their cards.  The bag of candy was full of Airheads and Laffy Taffy for them to enclose in the Valentine.  Isn't the Gorilla adorable?


Our team brought in a tasty dinner of soups, salads, and desserts.


Dinner was a lovely and delicious time together.


Then we sang a few worship songs.


This box was full of surprise gifts for each lady.


The gift bags contained a charm bracelet.


It was fun to volunteer together and coach the ladies on their first stamping experience.  They loved stamping!


A table full of happy crafters.


When it was all done, around 50 Valentine cards had been completed.

The Crocodile


The Otter


The Skunk


The Hedgehog


I hope the children enjoyed their Valentine cards!  It was a delightful evening to volunteer and teach stamping.

Tags Donation

I was invited to provide a craft to make gift tags for a charity event at Chrysalis.  The ladies at this transitional home were provided gifts for their children via the Giving Tree at our church. 


I cut and prepared the card stock, Designer Series Paper, ribbons, stamped and punched sentiments.


At this event we delivered the gifts for them to wrap for their loved ones.  Each lady was given a gift card for themselves and a gas card if appropriate.


We also brought yummy treats for our evening celebration.


These are the ladies working on making tags for their children.


The ladies were so all were so sweet and grateful!


These gals are part of the volunteer group from The Pursuit that put on this service project.  

These are the 4 tags that I designed for them to make:


Here is a vintage design.


Another vintage design.


A traditional green and red design.


And a design with contemporary colors.


It was so fun to hear all the oohs and ahhs!  I am looking forward to going back next year.
