Snag a sold out kit and support a great cause!

Our September "Mary's Song" kit sold out pretty quickly, but before it did, we donated one to a wonderful organization, and now it's up for bid in their fundraising auction!

If you follow us on social media, or know me on Facebook, you know that we are big on promoting adopting homeless pets, rather than shopping for them, and in trying to help shelter animals as much as we can.  So it was a no brainer, when I heard the Animal Welfare Association - a no-kill shelter in Voorhees, NJ - was looking for items to include in their fundraiser auction, I wanted to do something - so we sent them a kit, in hopes it will help them raise money.

 
This kit includes gorgeous papers from Blue Fern Studios and Authentique Paper, as well as Blue Fern Chipboard, Prima and Petaloo embellishments, Reneabouquets handmade butterflies, and more!

If you'd like to support a great no-kill shelter, and get some gorgeous scrapbook goodies in the process, please head straight over to their auction and bid!  You can find the kit here:  https://www.biddingforgood.com/auction/item/item.action?id=223819751, and you can find all the other wonderful things they are auctioning off here:  https://www.biddingforgood.com/auction/item/browse.action?grouping=ALL&auctionId=221443977.  The opening bid is only $15.00 (for a kit with a retail value over $40.00), that's far less than half price!

Thank you, and we hope you'll head over and bid on the kit, and while you're at it, browse around and bid on some of their other items, as well!

She colored the Blue Fern Chipboard frame and layered the photo in, along with flowers from the kit and from this month's Floral Add On and some cheesecloth for texture. 
The Bricks are chipboard pieces from last month's kit , and the quote was cut from some of the stickers that were in the kit.
