My host for next Monday (the 10th) just called and asked me to send out another postcard to her guests - the show is a Cookie Exchange, and she has already received 18 rsvp's....
On the original invitation, everyone was instructed to bring 2 dozen of their favorite cookie - but if rsvp's keep coming in, that won't be enough - so we decided that we should amend the invite to 4 dozen cookies.

Now my mind is blank - I want to send out a cute postcard that will let everyone know to double their batch - but I can't figure out how to say it in a fun way - so I am asking for some creative help!
Those of you with creative writing and wording abilities - could you give me something to say that will fit on a postcard? I would be forever grateful! I need to get these out today or tomorrow!

Thanks!
 
The Holidays are in full swing, we thought we'd let you know what you could bring...

The Guest list is growing, we thought you should know...

You need to bring 4 dozen cookies to the Show!

Hope you can work with that...or make it into something.. Good luck
 
The party's getting bigger! Please bring 4 dozen cookies instead of 2. You'll get to bring 4 dozen home, from the cookies that others bring.
Hope to see you there!
date, blah blah blah

thanks Ann, hope Becky can work with it.
