Some Thank You's

I just wanted to say a few thank yous to everyone who has donated to the Help for Katie fundraising that I have been doing, I know the goods that you get in return are a very big sweetener to people that donate but without your kind hearts this wouldn't be possible.


Also everyone who hopped over to Katie's blog and left her words of encouragement I know just how much it means to her and Katie writes an incredible journey of what is happening to her.


Katie has had her 2nd batch of chemo and is just coming out of the other side of this now as it left her weak and fatigued this time round and in Katie's words "very foggy"
Katie has took control of her hair loss situation and got Kevin (husband) to shave her head, which as you can imagine wouldn't have been an easy task for wither of them.


I am sharing a couple of Katie's photo's with you today.

So onto the fundraising, we have raised a great amount but i know that with your help we can do even better so please please tell everyone you know about the fundraising and lets do our utmost to help Katie and her family.

Fairy Kiki & Another Prize

Isn't this just the sweetest thing you have ever feasted your eyes upon?
Fairy Kiki is a Digital Stamp Image drawn by the uber talented mo manning and can be purchased here.
I coloured her with Copic markers and a bit of Sakura sparkly pen on her wings, teamed with Bo Bunny papers and a baby pink sheer ribbon.

Now wouldn't that be a neat prize to win? I love the idea of creating your own Angel maybe to give to a sick friend or to someone who has touched your heart.

Alice in Stockings Wonderland

Can you believe my husband chris dragged me craft shopping yesterday, I'm beginning to think his model making is alright lol! i have it off to a fine art, send him one way to look for his stuff whilst I head the other way and as quick as a trolly dash I have my basket filled to the till and payed for before he gets back ha ha, perfect.
My card to day is Alice and a beauty she is too, quite a modern spin on this one.
Alice is coloured with Copic Markers and teamed with Stampin Up Papers I used a Martha Stewart Deep Edger Punch to make the center strip and tied a pale blue ribbon around it.

Please keep saying your prayers and thinking positive thoughts for my dear friend Katie, she had her second batch of Chemo this week.
