Inspirational workshop!


A dear friend of mine was recently diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in her foot. She has been undergoing chemo and radiation treatments and is looking ahead towards having surgery in December. She is only allowed to leave her home for doctor appts. and treatments. She is an amazing person who always puts others first and last night a great group of women came together to stamp and support their friend. Bettie came with her Ipad and we skyped with Carolyn before the evening started. She was smiling and laughing as we all said hello.


Gena, who you see standing in the corner opened her home to hold this workshop for Carolyn. I prepared 3 card projects for everyone to make. Each one made a card for themself and a card for Carolyn. Carolyn will recieve the hostess rewards from this workshop.
Thank you Gena for your hospitality!


We had 5 new stampers...and they rocked it! They were a little nervous at first but did an amazing job on their cards and really enjoyed the evening.


I made a treat for each person who attended to take home with them along with their 3 cards. The breast cancer set from amuse studio was perfect for the evening as Carolyn is fighting like a girl to beat this cancer.



Here are the 3 card projects we made for Carolyn.....


...and here is the basket of love that everyone created for her.

 From non stampers to some who didn't even know Carolyn....I was truly inspired by the love and support these women have for her. I feel very blessed to have been a part of the evening and I feel even more blessed to have Carolyn as my friend.
