Artists continued to brainstorm ways to outreach potential new members.
The trading began with a Blind Trade of ATCs with the theme of Wine. Next, Artists did a show and tell of the Milk Cap Challenge ATC and the Stamp Share Challenge ATC. Lastly, Artists participated in the Regular Trade.
Nancy L. did a demonstration and workshop of heat embossing. Thank you! One technique was to apply the embossing ink (either via a stamp pad or dabber) to a die cut shape, cover the shape with embossing powder, shake-off the excess powder, and then apply heat using a heat embossing gun.

Nancy L. also shared about recent trends - Inchies and Moos. Inchies are 1 inch by 1 inch cards; Moos are 1 inch by 2 3/4 inches.
Jenn has volunteered to do the next demonstration and workshop.
