Kathy's Christmas Wish

As many of you know, last Christmas instead of asking for presents I took donations for the troops, it was a great success and thank you everyone for pitching in and helping the troops. This year I decided to do something very similar. You all know I'm a big animal lover so I thought I would combine my passions and help both the animals and the troops. I will be collecting donations for the Puppy Rescue Mission. They help soldiers that are serving overseas and that find a loving companion while there, bring that dog or cat to be in a forever home with there soldier. My Christmas Wish is to raise $500 or more for the Puppy Rescue Mission, so they can continue all the wonderful things that they do. If you planned on purchasing me a gift, please use that money to contribute to help me reach my goal and make my Christmas Wish come true! Every little bit counts, so I ask that one day you skip the coffee or go to spare change jar and make a donation.

You can make donations online to a charity page I created or deliver donations in person to me:

Not sure why the pictures and tracker are over the place :P

ABC Crop

If you haven't checked it out yet, My Sketch World is hosting an ABC Crop! I know it started already but I just wanted to give a little shout out, in case you were looking for something fun to do this month and needed some inspiration. Since school just started its been a little crazy for me, so I'm hoping to settle into my new schedule and get to some scrapping! Hope to see you there (:

One Hour Sketch Challenge!

Tonight at My Sketch World, my friend Ginni, was hosting the One Hour Sketch Challege (OHSC)! Whoa an hour to create a layout, it may sound like a challenge, but it really was a lot of fun. You do get some hints before the night of the OHSC to help you prepare, but I didn't have much ready hehe :) I really liked how my page came out and my mom even played too! The next OHSC is Oct 15, hope you can join in (:

I was so excited to be able to use some Bella Blvd. The paper, cut outs and word cut out is from them. The banner is from a marvy tree punch that is supposed to be a tree :) The circle I cut out with the new giant Creative Memories circle cutter, I love there cutters and this big circle was a great investment, no more plate tracing for me. The transparency and foam letters are from Creative Imaginations and of course the cardstock is Prism!
