How to Organize a Card Making Party & Give Back

The last several years I have made tons of Valentine's cards for Texas Children's Hospital and it is SO fun! This year I thought I would post on how to organize your own card making party.

1. Choose a charity and/ or organization you want to make cards for. 
2. Decide on a date and location.
3. Invite guests.
4. Get supplies or asks guests to bring crafting supplies. I usually buy supplies in the dollar bins at Target, from Dollar Tree and use the tons of supplies that I already have at home. 
1. You will need cards. I have gotten the Valentine's that come in the boxes and I have made my own. If I make my own, I get A2 or A4 size blank cards in various sizes, designs and Valentine's colors like reds, pinks, whites, etc.
2. Scissors
3. Glue / Glue Sticks
4. Decorating supplies like stickers, foam stickers like hearts, washi tape, watercolors, markers, etc. I don't get a lot of glitter things because Texas Children's ask to not use much glitter.
5. Plan a small menu and drinks.
6. Make cards.
7. Have fun!!
8. Send off or deliver to charity and/or organization!

I saw this in another article and thought it was a great idea, choose some questions to discuss and reflect while you are making cards.

• What are you grateful for?
• What are some of your favorite charities?
• Why do you give back?
• What makes you the most happy about giving back?
• How do you like to give back the most?
