Aloha,

 

Our September meeting was a great success and we are already seeing some great artwork

from our members. We are looking foward to see what everybody comes up with for the next meeting on October 13th.

 We can't be thankfull enough to Deb Z for her generosity in letting us meet in her workshop every month. Please visit her website www.rubberstampplantation.com  and feel free to pass it along to friends and family. She offers a great product line that is made in Hawaii.
