14 Hour Crop Finale......

Yesterday we had our big event to raise money for Carol and her family. We raised over $1700 last night alone!!! WOW. I could not have done it without YOU!

Susie and Kris (owner of Scrap Happy Sisters) and Pam (no pix here :( today) were such an integral part of attaining this success. Thank you to sooooo many more people, with BIG shout outs to Karen (sis) and Kim  Love you guys

The set up was a little shaky at first since we had so many wonderful auction items, but Kris and her husband came tot he rescue and we got it all together. The raffle winners were thrilled with their prizes. I know Diane loved her Magnetic Mat & case.

Susie and I will hold a craft sale in October and will have some more items for sale for PEP plus other new items as well. So SAVE THE DATE.

Even the littlest "scrappers" were there, meet Joy and lil Miss Allison!

The room was filled with great people and great food and we all had a fun time crafting, cropping and raising money for Carol.

And Carol was with us the whole day............

I will be posting another silent auction next week, more details to follow. So stay tuned and of course warm hugs and wishes. That's all for now....

Last Minute Prep.......

We are all ready for next Saturday...... Going...Going.....Gone! At least that's what we hope. The croppers and crafters and bidders are all ready to go and we can't wait to blow this fundraiser "out of the water" for Carol and her family! If there are any items left for sale (I hope not LOL), they will go online next week and I will post pictures of everything like we did before. I am hoping all goes great and that everyone has a blast! Stamp for the cause, stamp from the heart! This one is for you my dear FRIEND, CAROL!  Hugs :)

August 25th Crop Almost Here...

I am so excited.....  the 14 hour crop for Carol is less than 2 weeks away and Kris at Scrap Happy Sisters said that she is almost TOTALLY SOLD OUT! Only one seat left, isn't that great? More fundraising will be happening that same night where the Silent Auction will continue, plus we will have many other items for sale like handmade card sets, kids stamping kits, a used stamp set area where everything is $5 or LESS! Yikes! Food items, all natural bath salts and soaps, T shirts and Breast Cancer Awareness information. Hope to see all of you locals there even if you just want to browse! There is also a beautiful necklace and earring set that we are raffling off for only $1 per ticket.

Should be lots of fun and remember the hours at 10AM- midnight at Scrap Happy Sisters 67th Ave and Happy Valley Road in Glendale, AZ.

UPDATES ON CAROL..........

Well all I can say is a picture is worth a thousand words.......
Zach and I just got back from Chicago las tnite and what a great trip! Carol looks beautiful, although chemo makes her more tired but you would never know it. The top picture is of Carol and one of her twin granddaughters, Chloe. I am sure they keep her going and give her strength.. as well as all of your warm wishes, prayers and donations! Carol, just could not believe that we were doing PEP just for her! She is so grateful to everyone and couldn't stop crying all weekend. Thank you to all of you, I only wish you could have been there to see her and her husband's faces when I presented them with thier first PEP check. What a warm wonderful feeling it was. She loves the name too, Pink Elephant Project.

The bottom picture is Carol, my soul sister, me and Karen, my real sister. We are all sisters in so many ways. Karen has done so much for Carol and this project, I couldn't have done it without her. Love to you both, my precious sisters!
