December Meeting

Our December meeting was a fun one. Maria, Corrin, Sue, Pam, and Sophia are showing off their great prizes.There were delicious goodies, thanks to Sophia and Corrin. How about posting the recipes? We shared a lot of information and tried some different materials.


Corrin tried out some neocolors while some of the other members worked on setting up and photographing a Christmas still life. We had so much fun that we are already planning next year's December meeting!
