October 24th Photo - BC Crop for Kids

This weekend out in Abbotsford, a very special fundraiser took place for BC Children's Hospital. The Scrapaholics, my scrapbooking group raised and presented a $1000 cheque. Last year, this event raised over $22,000. It was a great time and I am proud to be a part of such a worthwhile cause! Today's photo is of all of us in our tropical themed attire presenting our cheque to Mary and Sandra, the organizers for Crop for Kids.

October 5th Photo - Calendar Swap


I finished my calendars tonight for my Scrapaholics Calendar Swap. We each sign up for a month and then swap them out. Each calendar is a work of art and I love having hanging my calendar from my friends in my studio. When I receive this one back, I'm going to hang it in our kitchen.
