Paper Crafters Update and 2025 Activity Schedule

The Paper Crafters started the year with a class on reverse embossing. Pictured is an example of this beautiful technique.

The Paper Crafters continued community outreach and brought some holiday cheer over the past few months by delivering over 250 handcrafted cards along with gift baskets to The Rotary Club. The next distribution will be later this month. Please reach out to Suzy Claar if you would be interested in contributing to this worthy cause.

The studio located in the activity center will continue to be open from 1 to 4 p.m. each Monday. We hope to have more and more members attending this studio time because the more the merrier. Plus, we have many fun activities planned for the second Monday of each month during our studio time. We started the year off with a class on reverse embossing taught by Lupe Loredo.
