Hello Friends, How is your week going? Any plans for the weekend? Finally I can tell you about Crafters For A Cause. Have you caught wind about it yet?
It’s so exciting and it makes me feel so hopeful and joyful!! You can read all about it here & I hope you will get the same happy and warm feelings that I have. The fact that 100% of the total price is donated blows my mind!!A huge kudos to Heidi at SSS for making this happen and so many others that have donated!!!
Finally I had some time to color this beautiful mermaid stamp from Honey Bee Stamps called, “Mermaid Song” . The sentiment is from this stamp set that is a limited release for STAMPtember …. one of Simon’s collaborations with Honey Bee just for STAMPtember. Both stamp sets have awesome sayings but, I need something simple. I am trying to make many cards for Simon Says Stamp Crafters For A Cause!!
Honey Bee has the perfect background stamp for my mermaid but, I decided to use this Extra Large Dot stencil with some distress ink instead because it was right in front of me. (so happy the stencil is in stock) I colored some twine with a copic marker to tie around her hair.
My super fine tip multiliner that’s 0.03 was the only way to add realistic lashes on my mermaid.
GIVEAWAY! A stamp from Honey Bee plus a goodie bag. To qualify … I would love to hear if you have heard about “Crafters for a Cause” in the comment area. Winner will be announced on Tuesday. (thanks to Honey Bee for the Giveaway)
See you tomorrow and enjoy your day. Hugs, Kathy

I have ordered my box yesterday, it’s such an amazing cause. Only a smaller one because of my budget but better than nothing, right?
What a gorgeous card, you’re so good at colouring! I have heard about the cause, and I was looking forward to it. I was lucky enough to see Jennifer’s post last night quickly enough – not everything was in stock anymore, but at least I managed to get the $25 donation in, which I hope is better than nothing Every little counts, right? It’s wonderful to see how generous the crafty world is!
Absolutely, following it from inception. Saw all the amazing photos on insta story about the packaging 😉
Fortunately they sold out super fast, which unfortunately means I couldn’t get mine – but signed up for the back in stock notification 🙂
I love how the crafty community is coming together for this amazing cause and I am thrilled that some of the donations will help animals in need. This is super close to my heart! – and as I know to Heidi’s too 🙂
Yes. I heard of it and tried and tried to get a box to no avail. I understand there will be more today so I’ll try again. I appreciate everyone’s donations What big hearts are out there! Awesome!
I didn’t get to buy a box, can’t wait for second round 🙂
Kathy, it’s amazing what you’re doing! Yes, I have already heard about “Crafters for a Cause” from Jennifer McGuire’s posts.

Such a sweet card, Kathy. I read about Crafters for a cause on Jennifer’s blog.

Gorgeous coloring on this fabulous card. Yes, I heard about this great cause yesterday on Jennifer McGuire’s blog. Sounds like an amazing cause.

I just heard about it this morning when looking at instagram I have know Idea how I missed it yesterday but I have put in a donation for when boxes are back in stock. I knew Jennifer was working on something but totally missed it. Such a fantastic way to donate.
Heard about it from JenniferMcGuireInk site. It is wonderful that crafty people are so generous. Thank you for the encouragement that you have provided also.

Yes, it’s a wonderful program. I’m glad they have boxes to fit all budgets. Love the ponytail tie on your mermaid.
What a “fin-tastic” card Kathy, I love your ideas. (You have no idea how much you inspire me! Thank you for that!)
I just last week learned about Crafter’s for a Cause and I think Heidi is a genius for coming up with this. She’s so generous!
Yes, I’ve heatd about it through Jennifer McGuire, and both the 25 and 50 dollar boxes were already out of stock! So I’m waiting for the $50 to come back in stock!!
Yes via Jennifer. Love your mermaid
Yes, saw the e-mail from Jenifer McGuire and immediately rushed over to SSS to purchase the $50 pack, but it was sold out. Then clicked on the $100 pack and it was sold out. Sad, but signed up for notifications for when they are available again.
Kathy your card is adorable.. And yes I have heard about the Crafters for a Cause and I think it is WONDERFUL .Thanks to Jennifer, SSS and designers and companies that donated for this cause.

Such a worthy cause and the crafting community is amazing also for jumping in to help!!! I hope to also be able to donate when the next round of boxes is released!! Congrats to everyone and to you Kathy!!!
Yes, I have heard of it! It’s amazing that so much was raised. The crafting community and all these companies are amazing! I’m hoping to get one in the next round because they were sold out by the time I got on the site.
Btw I love that you colored the twine so it would match!
Awesome cause but I went to donate and they are all gone I sure hope they package up more. Love this card, reminds me of my granddaughter Kynlee. She’s loves to stamp and color mermaids.
I have heard about it but not until all of the boxes were gone. I’ll get in there for round two! Way to go crafters!
I did hear about the boxes but when I went to purchase they were gone it had only been 20 minutes after I received Jennifers email -how amazing!!! I was affected, as a very large group of people here in the Houston area but I want to donate to the others that are all still in so much need of help. I look forward to the next release of boxes. thank you for all that this community does !!!!
Sweet card. Yes, I have heard about this wonderful initiative:)
Yes, crafters with a cause is an awesome idea that broke the internet when the ordering went live. If you didn’t get one keep trying. I did get one ordered.
I love your mermaid card. Honeybee Stamps are awesome.
Oh I tried hard to get my hand on a crafters for a cause box but they were sold out! It’s ok, it just shows how people really want to help and that makes me happy enough! In between crafting this weekend, I’m going to clean out my closets and see what I can donate! That will make me happy as well! There is such a dire need, and I will do what little I can to help!
Yes, I had heard about it over at Jennifer McGuire’s site. Just made my donation. What an incredible fundraiser. There are indeed good people in this world.
Love your mermaid card!
Fabulous cause and I like so many others couldn’t get mine quick enough. I can’t wait till they restock. I want to say thank you to all the companies that donated for these boxes. Amazing generous people involved!
Yes,I’m so happy to have been able to be a part of this amazing cause.I tried to get a $100 box but it sold out so fast so instead I donated a $50 and added the other $50 to the go fund me.I think it’s incredibly generous that is going to the cause.Many other places don’t even come close.So many need this and I’m excited about this cause.Great cards.I love this set.
yes I have heard of it Kathy, and managed to snag my box yesterday so very exciting to see what it in it. And what a fabulous cause, such a generous offer from SSS and all the manufacturers, they rock! And so do you, this colouring is just beautiful, look at all that texture on the rock and the gorgeous blending. You colour like no other! Beautiful!
Your card is lovely and that is a really cute stamp by HBS.
Yes, I have heard of this awesome cause! My SIL has a brother & his wife who are still in PR and we are hoping they can get on a flight out soon. The devastation is mind-blowing and all of these places need so much help to recover!
Yes! I bought a box! What a great cause. Love your coloring, mine looks like a 5 year olds!!!
Yes, yes! What a wonderful way to support those in need. This community is amazing, can’t believe they raised $23,000 in one day! Yay, way to go SSS and friends. Hoping they restock soon, so I can get some goodies too! Your card Kathy is perfection, I’m always so inspired by your work! LOVE
The SSS Crafters for a Cause literally erupted yesterday. Big kudos to SSS for rolling this fundraising event out and big props to all of the companies who have done fundraising events of their own to support such an important cause. It brings everyone together and there’s nothing greater than that.
Beautiful card btw 🙂
Yes I heard about the cause. Too late for a box of goodies. Your card is so darn cute.
Yes, I heard about it and have donated! Their website was apparently overloaded the first time I tried yesterday and I couldn’t get the pages to download. When I finally got the donation page to add to my cart, it said the $25 box was sold out!!! But, in the meantime, I asked if they had any names/contact information of crafters in need. My thought process was: it’s unlikely that (unless crafting is how they earn their living) when funds are released for re-building, craft supplies will get much priority. But–knowing how we ‘recharge’, craft supplies will be a priority for mental health! I had already gone through my stuff and pulled some duplicate supplies and some basics (bases, envelopes, patterned papers, washi tape, double-sided tape, etc) out of my supplies to be a starter kit for someone. I am now waiting for them to send me a name, and I can go to the post office and send it off. Thanks for getting the word out and for your very caring heart.
Yes I heard about it on a few blogs now and I think it’s an amazing idea.
I think you LIKE mermaids, Kathy! I have your card sitting over my desk with a little mermaid on it, that you sent me! 😉 This card is SO SWEET! YES, I have heard of the Crafters for a Cause Fund Raiser! I follow Jennifer’s Blog! 😉
Yes, I have heard of Crafters for a Cause. What a wonderful thing to do! Such generosity!
I have heard about “Crafter’s for a Cause”. This is such a wonderful way to give to all the people and areas that have been hit so hard by the recent hurricanes. I live in Florida, and we are very grateful that we didn’t have more damage than we did. We were without power for 10 days, but that’s nothing compared to areas like Puerto Rico, where the devastation has been unmeasurable. I will be donating to this great cause because I know that 100% will go to these people, not into someone else pocket.
Yes, I heard about this amazing initiative and I am blown away by the generosity of the crafting community. The boxes sold out quite quickly, from what I understand!
Kathy what a gorgeous card!!!!! Such gorgeous detail too!!! And YES!!! It’s an amazing cause and such a beautiful way to give back and to help all the people affected by the hurricanes… I plan on purchasing a box tonight after I pay out some bills!!! Thanks for the chance to win and thank you Honey Bee Stamps too!!! 🙂
Have a great weekend!
Hugs,
Jo in Jersey
I read about Crafters for a Cause on Jennifer McGuire’s Instagram account. I’m hoping more kits will be available soon as they have all sold out, which is really wonderful!
Unfortunately, I just read about it and all the boxes are gone. It certainly was generous of all the sponsors though.
I just love your mermaid, Kathy, especially how the starfish has matching rosy cheeks. I’m a sucker for rosy cheeks 🙂
Amazing coloring as always… Love the idea of “Crafter for Cause”. It’s sold out currently, can’t wait to jump in and extend my contribution once SSS restock them. Heard it from Jennifer Mcguirre and she posted that they will provide more boxes. Keeping my eyes on them as they sold out really fast! Thank you for the generous companies and fellow crafters…
I heard about it on Jennifer Mcguire blog. Crafter are simply amazing.
I heard about it yesterday on Jennifer McGuire’s blog. It’s a wonderful and generous offer!
I saw a picture of Jennifer with some $50 boxes that she helped pack. I live in Florida, so I can only say that we certainly appreciate all the love from everyone.
I missed out on getting a box yesterday but luckily they are back in stock and I got my hands on one. What a thoughtful idea and happy I could do my little part to help.
Missed out on the first of the boxes , hope to get one when they are back in stock.
Great idea and glad that you brought this information to us. Great way to help all
the people that have been affected by the hurricanes. Your coloring is gorgeous as always.
Yes, I’ve heard about Crafter for a Cause from SSS, Jennifer McGuire and Prairie Paper and Ink, the crafting community is so giving and amazing!
I am so proud of this beautiful community of crafters and the companies and bloggers that have given so freely of their time and products to raise money for this desperate situation. I feel hope after seeing how we can come together and affect change. Thank you to all involved in bringing this opportunity to help and get wonderful product!
She’s darling! I went to get a box but they were sold out… a great success!!
What an adorable card! Love it. Yes, I had read Jennifer McGuire’s post yesterday. Went to SSS last night to get a box of goodies and everything was gone. So sad! Hoping that they may restock, as Jennifer indicated that might be a possibility. Such a wonderful cause. Have a great weekend.
Yes I heard about the cause, a wonderful way to help. I hope to have one box in the 2nd round.
No I have not heard of them but I will be checking it out. I love the idea that all the money is for the cause vs. a small percentage. I will be going to the site. Thanks for the info.
Your mermaid is darling. Of course the coloring is awesome and I love the details on the rocks and sand and other areas.
I live near the ocean, about 20 min drive away, so I love anything to do with the ocean. Your mermaid is so beautiful! Your colouring always looks amazing, Kathy. Those little added details make such a difference. Crafters for a Cause is an awesome cause – I read about it on Jennifer McGuire’s blog. I checked but the boxes have been sold out. I hope they bring them back soon. I am so glad we can do something – it’s hard to stand by and watch disasters happen. Now we can help. Crafters have always been a very caring and generous group. I think that’s why we make cards – to bring a smile and some joy to others.
Sorry but this is the first time I have heard about it. Will go follow your link and read about it. The crafting committee is so amazing!
Such an amazing and generous thing to do!!! I heard about it last night when I checked my email and saw the message from Jennifer M. I immediately went to get my box, but they were all out in all denominations!!! (which was wonderful) 🙂 This morning, I though, well, maybe check one more time? and I got one woo hooo!!!
Such a lovely way for you all to help, thank you!!
Yes, the first I heard about it was from Jennifer McGuire last night, and I went right to the website to donate but were sold out. I put my name on the list to get notified. What an awesome cause, and the hearts of everyone to donate their time. All of them are truly angels. Also, love your mermaid.
Beautiful card with awesome coloring as always!
Yes, I have heard of crafter for a cause from Simon Says Stamp and I made my donation too! It is fabulous that we can do a tiny part to help those suffered from the Hurricane!
Yes! Can’t wait for the restock so I can join in, how fun!
It is wonderful to help those in need. Love the card Kathy! Thrilled that we all can be part of the support.
No, this is the first I’ve heard of it although I’m a subscriber of Jennifer McGuire, Kristina, you (but at least you hinted something was in the works. Followed your link, was awed by what they’re doing, sorry it’s already too late. But wonderful, wonderful that people jumped in to help (and play) so fast. Wish I coulda been one of them. . .
Thank you for all you do!
Yes! I have heard of Crafter’s for A Cause! I hope to be able to donate to this next week when my SS check arrives! I have to see how much I have left after paying essential bills and whatever is left goes to this cause! Thanks for letting us know about it! It is a great cause!
I live in Europe, I bought a 25 dollar box to help out (at that moment the 50/100 dollar boxes were already sold out)!
I heard about the cause on another website but it wasn’t yours or Jens. I don’t remember whose but it said the boxes were all sold out. I went on SSS anyway and told them to send me something when you get more in. I could only give $10 but I didn’t want to give to the Red Cross. I thought they were a good organization but when I heard from my sister how they threw stuff away and gave people very little food compared to some church organizations and other places, I decided they weren’t the best to give to. This is a win/win for us and them. We win by getting some great craft stuff and they win by getting some much needed help. I wish I could give more but I can’t right now.
Can we make cards for them? I’d like to if I can. If I could put myself to good use while care giving my mom and helping my sister at The Big E for the last weekend, I’d like to. Please let me know.
Thanks for helping with doing this. It’s amazing what we can do when we all come together and want to help out.
Duh, sorry about no comment on your card. I was so focused on what you were doing that I forgot to comment. I swear, I’d forget my head if it wasn’t attached. I love mermaids and I love you’re coloring. What an adorable card for someone who has been through all this devastation! You really know what to do.
Fabulous card! Yes I have heard about crafters for a cause! This is such a fabulous idea! I went to order my box & they were all sold out, so I am waiting for more to come in!
Your mermaids is wonderful. Lovely colors. I read about the crafters cause on Jennifer McQuires blog and immediately went to read Heidi’s page. What kindness. I was not surprised that they sold out so quickly. Still waiting for the restock. It makes one proud to know our community has such wonderful and giving hearts. Very proud to be among them!
I just read about the Crafting for a Cause and it’s just such a warm, heartwarming response from the Crafting community. Kudos!
I like this stamp (and your touches Kathy) because it is not a ‘sexy’ approach to mermaid but a more a ‘real’ kid look.
Well done!
Thanks to Melissa for the giveaway! I did hear about the Cause sale…and the expensive boxes were sold out by the time I got there (damn work! lol) I’m on the waiting list for the restock. 🙂
Hi Kathy! I love your coloring of this Mermaid and the shell, and the background, beautiful! I have heard of the Crafters for a Cause! I saw it on Jennifer’s email. I tried to purchase the $50 and $200 but all of them were sold out. 🙁
Oops, I meant the $100 one. My eyes do not work so well when I am on chemo.
Hi Kathy,
I first heard about Crafter’s for a Cause from Simon Says Stamp. I’ve been following all the fantastic Stamptember sharing…it gets better and better! Crafter’s are such a giving community and it’s a wonderful way to make a difference. Looking forward to receiving my box, feeling good that 100% goes to the cause!
Love your card, by the way!
Oh this card is SO cute! Love your coloring of the little mermaid, Kathy!
I’ve just heard about Crafters for a Cause on Jennifer’s blog.xx
Beautiful card! Yes I heard about the cause on Jeniffer McGuires IG post.

thanks for sharing.
Such a gorgeous mermaid card Kathy! Yes, I heard about crafters for a cause from Heidy at Simon Says Stamp during her live Facebook feature last week. I tried to order one of the donated boxes yesterday, but they had already all sold out. Just waiting for a back in stock notification now 🙂
I have heard of it! I keep going to the SSS website to donate, but it has been sold out each time. That is good for hurricane relief. I will keep trying!!
I just read from you Crafter for a Cause
and ooh she is so cuuutee
and love how you added the dots on the stone
will join your challenge soon
I knew I am late cause my daddy was visiting Munich for 7 weeks and no chance to be crafty and be in front of computer for long time hehe now I have time and wanna say I miss you sweet and now you are like a rock star…I am still keeping the post for Kevin my son as he was in Operation/surgery time and it was all your idea to collect Cards for Kevin..many thanks dear Kathy
I haven’t heard of it yet but I’m off to look it up.
Yeas I have heard and see it on several blogs, it also didn’t amaze me that al the boxes where sold out in no time. Every one wants to help, this is a great way and whe now for shure where the money is going for the full 100 %. The last time I was looking on SSS Instagram they raised already $39,000. Also want to thanks everyone who works behind the scenes from this great cause!
And Kathy, love your little mermaid, see you tomorrow.
I have not heard of it yet. Looking forward to reading all about it! Thanks for the information.
I haven’t heard of Crafter’s for a Cause but I adore your beautiful card! That background is awesome and I love the little touch of twine you added to her hair!
Yes I have heard of Crafters for a cause and really want to donate. Unfortunately I cannot as my daughter’s college this quarter cost a lot more than I expected.
Love your card – and. It because it’s a mermaid!
I hadn’t heard about it until now but it sounds like a wonderful way to help.
No, I have never heard of this cause. I will respond after learning that 100% of the monies generated will go directly to people and causes (animals in particular) that truly need help. I cannot even begin to imagine what these people are going through.
I haven’t heard about it but now will do some research. Crafters are such generous people!
I hadn’t but have now, will look in to it. 🙂
Yes this is such an amazing thing but the boxes were all sold out:( Hopefully they will put more together so we can all help!
What a darling card. I love your color choices. I did sign up for a $25 box and am waiting to hear when they are back in stock. Thank you for making it possible for me, as a paper crafter to help where help is needed. I am 85 yrs. old and love making cards. TFS your God given talent.
Yes, I heard about it and ordered my boxes. Love your card and had fun doing the coloring challenge.

Love this card and adorable mermaid. Yes I’ve heard about the Crafter’s for A Cause and love the idea! I live in Houston and we were fortunate to stay safe during the whole hurricane but know many families who weren’t as lucky as us. This is such a great cause and effort by the whole crafting community to help so many!
I have heard about Crafter’s With A Cause! Every time I’ve gone, the boxes are sold out. So glad to hear they are going to be making a lot more!

Awesome card, as always. I have heard about but of course was late to order anything. Unfortunately I’m not at liberty sit and wait for the boxes to be available but I’m glad it’s a success.
I’m aware of all the good being done by Crafters for a Cause. I was excited to hear all the boxes sold out and lots of people will be helped.
Love all your inspiration…like many others I’ve heard about this wonderful endeavor but missed out on the first round… hope to make the next one!! Truly a blessing to be part of such a caring community!
Yes.! I have been trying to get a box but no luck yet. It is a fantastic cause!!

Yep, I have heard of Crafters for a Cause. So wanted to nab one of $100 boxes but have been out to town the last 2 days and missed both times! It’s so so cool how SSS and y’all are working to raise $$ for those that need the help so much! And goodness me, what beautiful coloring you’ve done on the mermaid!!
What a beautiful card. I love that you ended up using that beautiful stencil. The hair tie is so fun. Yes, I heard and SSS is incredible and everyone who got involved. The crafters community rocks!!

I was able to order 2 boxes before they were gone. Great cause
Lovely card! I have heard
about it and it’s a great
cause.
Carla from Utah
Your mermaid card is so adorable and I love the conch shell!! I saw a beach piled high with those shells when I visited the Yucatan in college…those were the days. I heard about Crafters for A Cause on Jennifer McGuire’s blog and was thrilled at the idea of crafters banding together for a good cause.
Yes, I heard about the crafters for a cause. I missed out on the sss boxes, sold out by the time I got there. Maybe next week.
Hello Kathy, I too heard from J M Ink first. It is a crafty heart that gives so much. And so generously
You are all so lovely to share all you do with everyone. You are all greatly appreciated❤️
Yes, I’ve heard about it through Jennifer Mcguire social media. I think it’s an amazing iniciative. We all should be more generous with each other every single day!
Beautiful coloring on the card. I like how you used the dot stencil for a background. I heard about Crafters for a Cause from Simon Says Stamp.
Yes I read about crafters for a cause from Jennifer. Kudos to SSS for supporting those in need. I went to make a donation but all the boxes were gone.
Love your mermaid card. As always such incredible colouring.
The fact that all the proceeds, not a portion, will go to the hurricane victims is WONDERFUL. I’m on the “notify me” for a box. Great that the first round sold out sooo quickly.
The mermaid card is gorgeous. Really like the detail of the tie in her hair.
Lovely mermaid, Kathy! Love this sweet card. Yes, I have heard of the awesome Crafters cause on Jennifer’s blog. Wonderful idea!
Such a fantastic card – I love the image and the beautiful background you added. I’m going to pull out all of my stencils and leave them in plain sight so I can remember to USE them. After all, I bought them, right?!
I have heard about Crafters for a Cause and think it’s a wonderful idea. I’m sorry I didn’t get the chance to participate because everything sold out very quickly.
I heard about Crafters for a Cause from Jennifer McGuire! I looked at buying a box, but they were sold out.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Yes I heard it through SSS Nd I find that it’s a great crafty cause! Both parties win for this awesome cause! Loving your coloring daily posts. Keep it up!
Yes, I have heard of Crafters for a Cause. This is a wonderful gesture when others are in need. It’s letting others know that we care.
Yes!! I saw Jennifer’s post about Crafter’s for a Cause first and dashed to purchase a box but they were sold out. I saw they were back in stock this morning but haven’t had a chance to grab one yet! About to do that right after sending this comment Kathy! Big Hugs!
Yes I heard about it from Jennifer Mc, and Heidi. I think its a great way for crafters, companies and designers to work together for a terrific cause. Thanks for your part in the campaign.
Absolutely sensational coloring and fabulous card !! Happy 80th birthday to your mom – wonderful to celebrate together 🙂
Gorgeous card! Yes I’d heard about it. I really want to get one of the boxes from SSS, but haven’t managed yet as they’ve been selling so well.
Yes! I heard it but they were ALL sold out so I’m on the notification list. Hopefully I can get a box in the near future 🙂
Love your coloring by the way. And the dot stencil calms the background. Love it!
Yes I did hear about this from Jennifer McGuire’s blog…what a terrific idea!
Yes, I heard from Jennifer McGuire!
I read about Crafters for A cause on Jennifer McGuires IG post and love that crafters had a way to help! I also love your sweet mermaid card, which is so beautifully colored.
That is the cutest mermaid ever! The string tie on her hair adds great texture.
So very cute!
I have definitely heard about Crafters for a Cause, and it’s such a great cause, too! Such a beautiful mermaid.
What a fabulous idea it was! And how wonderful that it has raised so much money so far. I was busy with my own items at work so I wasn’t able to participate however I have done so on my own in a different manner giving money through a fun raised for employees of ours affected in those regions it’s amazing how devastating it has been
Of course I’ve heard of them and I love donating cards to them and other charities!
First time hearing about it. I am going to finish looking the website you linked and am really excited to see what good is coming of this cause. Thanks for sharing! And thank you for the opportunity to win some goodies!!
Beautiful mermaid! I was not familiar with crafters for a cause. Great idea.
thanks for sharing, this is my introduction to them, whst a wonderful idea!!!
Yes, I heard about Crafter’s for a Cause on Jennifer McGuire’s blog. I happened to check it at the right time and was able to snag a box. So happy to be able to help.
This is the first time hearing about crafters with a cause. I would definitely like to know more about it! Thanks!
Not only did I hear about it…but I had a box in my cart. Unfortunately, it sold out before I checked out so now I am stalking the Simon site!
Yes, I’ve heard about it from Jennifer McGuire, Simon Says stamp, Kelly latevola etc. Amazing that they sold out so fast.
This is the first time that I heard about it. Your card is absolutely gorgeous!!!! I love the polka dot background. Your coloring is phenomenal!!!
Yes Kathy, I have heard about this great cause. I’m currently on a road trip, didn’t have access or find about it until we stopped for the evening and checked into our hotel. Of course all of the boxes had been sold out, I did get put on a notification list, and despite checking every chance I get, alas, still sold out. We are doing fund raising through our church, so plan to do that when we get home. I keep praying for the poor people in the hurricane stricken areas.
Love the mermaid and your colouring. I saw a video from SSS about Crafters for a Cause. Great effort on the part of crafters.
I have heard of CfaC; what I didn’t realize is how successful it was. I’m glad to hear money is being raised for a good cause.
Yes, I was able to make a donation for a crafty box! What an awesome idea! Excited for my box to arrive!
Great of Heidi to organize this. There is so much need this kind of help will give hope.
Yes, I have heard about it and was able to order before they sold out. The crafting industry is one of the most generous and caring. Thanks to all the great companies that donated products and to the amazing Heidi .
gorgeous card!
Aloha, Kathy, I love your coloring of the little mermaid! She has eyeshadow 🙂 Boy, have I heard about Heidi’s charity drive. I missed out on the first round as they sold out super fast – all donation amounts – gone! I’ve signed up to be notified as soon as they are selling the second special. I hope you rest up from all your activities soon ♥
