I have a GOOD reason….I promise!

Hey everyone!

I do realise that I have let you all down….. even if it just a little bit! My blogging seems to only consist of my Inkspiration challenges. That’s not all bad but if I didn’t have that I would go mad I am sure of it! because then I wouldn’t have any creating time at all! What I have been doing is getting ready for the RACQ CareFlight Fundraiser! Wanna see some pics of what I have been up to?! Stupid question I know!!

A couple of projects sitting on top of all the kits

250 kits to be exact

Some pre-packed goodies to sell! The boxes behind are full of these.

I love them all and want to keep them!!

A BIG thank you to Amy Waters for her inspiration for the packaged goodies. Makeesha for letting me use her fabulous ideas for some of the projects and of course all of her advice! All the girls on the Elite forum…..for all your kindness in donating product for the event. It is all very much appreciated. This is my first fundraiser and with everyone’s help and support I know it will be a success!

Well I will be back later today to reveal the winners for Inkspirations and then later again with this weeks challenge! That means three posts in one day!! Hehehe!

Thanks for dropping by!

Army Card!

Hey everyone!

I just wanted to pop on here and show you all a card I made a couple of months ago for a young boy who is totally Army mad! I also wanted to test my new watermark as you can see I haven’t been protecting my photos of my work ever since I changed comps and I finally sat down last night and made my watermark…..and it was sooooo easy!! I should have done it earlier.

There that’s better!!

Now for my absence……trust me it’s a good excuse! As most of you know I am currently organising a fundraiser for RACQ CareFlight, as we required their services earlier this year and I know I didn’t go into detail with you all about what happened but at the time I was not in a good place emotionally. I can now tell you that we nearly lost our youngest son to drowning in a cement water tank. He is totally okay, he didn’t suffer any long-term damage and was also very lucky to stave off any infections. We all are currently much better emotionally and my family and the close friends involved received counselling to help us get there. I think preparing this fundraiser has helped even more! I have received so much support and help from my fellow demonstrators, who are all my friends, since the event and I appreciate every single one of them! They are all now helping again by donating Stampin’ Up! product, ideas and their time for the fabulous fundraiser that will go live on the 4th September 2010! I am super excited!

RACQ CareFlight is an awesome service that relies heavily on donations and fundraisers such as mine and I am very excited that I can give just a little bit back, as it wasn’t just the service we received but also the flight crew’s support and love that they gave us on the day! As you could probably imagine I was a mess on the day! I also cannot forget the local Ambulance crew either. Just simply the best! They do a remarkable job and I appreciate them so.

I will be posting soon about the event I will be holding here in Gatton in more detail but be assured there will be fabulous projects and prizes and beautiful handmade projects to buy! And don’t forget I am auctioning off my Hubby!! LOL! I will let you know more about that later!

Thanks for dropping by!
