Connie’s Crafters
We are a group of ladies who enjoy the fun and fellowship of card making as well as other crafts at one of our member’s home. Watch bulletin for dates. We also invite our friends and neighbors and co-workers!
In making our cards we use stamps, embossing techniques, dried and pressed flowers, and any other materials that inspire us. We sometimes make paper and then turn it into a card or perhaps make bookmarks or gift tags for the holidays. We send some of our cards to church members who may be ill or in need of a spot of cheer or congratulations – just to let them know we’re thinking about them. The others we take home to send to friends and loved ones.
We invite the ladies to come and join our fun and have a cup of tea or coffee with us. No special talent is needed! Just be willing to come and have a good time.
