Afternoon of Card Making
Armed with glue sticks, old books, and colorful paper, students joined us in the library to create gorgeous homemade holiday cards and envelopes for friends and family. A wide array of snowflakes, tree ornaments, trees, and wreathes were made from the torn out pages of old books and magazines. Thanks to everyone who came out to spend the afternoon in the library to get ready for the holidays with all the tests and papers due in these next few weeks, and happy holidays to all!
