Help Us Help Others!

Nashville Flood 2010: Beauty from Ashes

We really want to help a family who's in dire need this Christmas. Alas, we're not blessed with an overabundance of financial aid - but we DO have one thing: photos.
We have TWO of this Limited Edition (numbers 4 and 5) flood print available.
Here are are the particulars:
Size: 18"x24"
Metallic Paper Print
Regular price: $150
While they last, price only $50! (Please add $10 if we will need to ship to you!)
The whole fee will be given to this family! It's your opportunity to get a GREAT gift for someone (or yourself! :D), and bless us so we can bless someone else!

IF the two prints are gone before you get back to us, or if you'd like some additional choices, we also have the following available at
OUR ART GALLERY:

For a limited time only, so please act quickly!

All photos available as an Electronic Download directly from us - $15.00 (you print)

Electronic Download plus add a favorite Bible verse or quote - $20.00 (you print)

Thank you for helping us bless others. We desire to be His hands and feet in this world!

I've been BURIED!

I'm sorry. I know you miss me when I disappear - thank you to all of you wonderful friends who sent emails, worrying about me. I've been totally buried, worried about myself, and wondering if I'd ever get to the top of the stack again.
EVERY surface in my studio looked like this. And I do mean every. Look: there's household stuff, stamping stuff, clothing for one of my flood victim friends, photography business stuff - the empty spot here on this end of the table? That's where I picked up my camera from.
I'm VERY sorry. Not only did the flood disrupt our lives for a while, it's continuing to mess up scheduling - I've had to move a class to make room for the rescheduled photography class night, yaddayadda. I just haven't been able to keep up.
I feel like I'm getting there now, though! Had a scrapbooking class Saturday, a party last night and tonight, and an Advanced Techniques class tomorrow night. So I've got lots of things lined up to show you - just have to do the photography, the clean-up, and still a bit of designing. ;)
SO! Come back and see me tomorrow, and I'll start showing you some great things YOU can easily make - or maybe you'll want a class of your own! :D
THANK YOU for being faithful! Next month's the Annual Birthday Card Contest, and I promise the prize will be great. :)
Have a wonderful day! Take the time to stamp SOMEthing - you KNOW I am! :D

Giving YOU a chance to help out!

There are SO many ways out there for you to be able to help - texting the Red Cross, donating to food and fund drives - but I'm giving you ANOTHER way to help!

This box is very similar to the Top Note box from last year, but it IS a square box, very durable. I'm going to work on putting together the tutorial for it this weekend; HOPEFULLY, by Monday, I'll have it and the kit contents ready for you to be able to paypal for. All proceeds (unless you purchase a kit, then I have to pay for the contents of it, but after that small fee) will go to the Tennessee Flood Relief effort.

Even if you don't need another box tutorial, I'm hoping you'll donate the small fee to help! Pass this on to anyone you know; even if someone's not a paper-crafter, they probably know someone who IS!

OK, I'm outta here! :D I hope you're having a WONDERFUL day, and that you'll take the time to STAMP something! (And think about doing this to help someone! :D)

MY DIGITAL STUDIO - it's been awhile!

This is done COMPLETELY with MDS. There are some fantastic new downloads - and you can get bits and pieces of MDS for use with other scrapbooking programs, too! Ask me about it! :)

(Don't forget, you can click on the photo to enlarge it!)

HAPPY CINCO DE MAYO!

I'm outta here! :D Have a WONDERFUL day - and be SURE to stamp - or, this month especially, SCRAP! - something!!!!

Same stamp set, different look! :D

Good afternoon, y'all!!! How are you today? I hope you're praying for those who've been devastated by our flooding here in Tennessee; if you're not in the area, the national news hasn't really said anything about it. It's AWFUL! So, if you get a chance, take a look at the Nashville news, and if you can help out in any way, PLEASE do!

So! On to today's share! I'm going to just tell you what's different from yesterday, versus retyping everything. :D I think you can figure it out pretty easily from the "ingredients" - but, as usual, if you have ANY questions, please don't hesitate to ask me!:)

Card stock: Whisper White, Summer Sun(R), Only Orange(R), Garden Green

Ink: Summer Sun (R), Only Orange(R), and Garden Green Stampin' Write Markers

Stamp set: Watercolor Trio

Isn't it PRETTY? Summer Sun was my favorite yellow, so I wanted to do a pretty card with it for you. :) (I'm also trying to figure out what to do for my mom for both her birthday and Mother's Day!!!)

OK, I'm off. :) Have a WONDERFUL day - and be SURE to take the time to STAMP something!
