Stampin’ Out Hunger the Stampin’ Up! Way!

Hi Everyone,

I’d like to share a little of what we did yesterday at our Stampin’ Out  Hunger Event to help our Second Harvest Food Bank here in Jacksonville, Florida.

Some of my team members and myself gathered together and hosted an event to help feed some hungry kids this summer. You know June is the hungriest time of the year for most food banks, as kids are home from school and not getting their lunches…therefore the food banks have to fill that need as well. So of course we had to help!!!

Here is the Yummy cake we had made up for the event. It was super yummy!!

Here is RoseAnn obviously instructing…they looked very studious didn’t they?

Susan (Demo) with the Gray hair at the top corner cracking up as usual!!!!

 I’m the one with the blond hair…answering a question I guess.

  Happy Stampers!!! ….more happy stampers and (Demo) in the center standing. awwwwwwwwww!! I think we’re having fun!!! Mikki (Demo) standing. They’re all smiling. I know they loved her card!! Christina (Demo) standing. She’s got them hard at work!! tee hee!! Angie at the end of the table helping a new customer…thanks Angie!! This is Suzi…she won our VIP Package for the day. Tons of goodies and Pink Feather Boa and Tiara to wear for the day and a Seat cushion and so much more!! How fun!!

I’d say these gorgeous ladies are having fun!!

My Hubby (Darrell) is such a good sport (and a cutie too). His Apron provided by Christina said: “Danger Man Cooking”!! I didn’t think he’d wear it but he did.  Look at all those yummy Nathans’ Hot Dogs he made in the 100 degree weather for all the ladies.  They loved them!! (This was only one of many batches by the way). He’s my major hero!!!

Jeff’s Birthday Cake  Jeff and Angela Caulder are the Managers of the Bluewater Storage Center here in Jacksonville, Florida and they provide us with a place to do our stamping events. It is a State of the Art Storage facility that is the best I’ve seen anywhere, clean, modern, climate controlled and Jeff and his wife Angie are the nicest people you’d ever want to meet. If you need storage you need to see them!! They can meet any storage need!!!

Lunch time and some happy ladies.

Billie, Karen, Karen, Lisa and Doreen….special stamping friends!!!  Some of my Special friends…Kelly, cute little Natalie, Barb, Nikki and Lynn.

Karen and Lisa….they’ve become friends through these events. Love that!!  Winner of the Grand Raffle Prize of $150 worth of Stampin’ Up! Goodies. I think she was stunned!!!

  Janet presented her with the prize as it was her customer.

I guess that’s it for today. I’ve got tons to do and put away from the event yesterday.

Just one last message…..we earned enough $$$ to provide 3000 meals to the hungry people in Northeast Florida and we collected two barrel’s of food in addition to that!

I’m so proud of that and my team members that participated. We are making a difference and we’re having fun doing it!!

 

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by!
