Swimming for Katie Blog Hop!



I've seen the love the crafting community can show time and time again and it is so amazing.  Starting today, there will be three days of wonderful projects by over 100 designers to show love and support for a dear friend to the crafting community named Kate (and her husband Kevin and their three young boys).  Katie’s cancer story started just before Christmas last year.  This young wife & mother of 3 was suddenly diagnosed with an inoperable cancer.  Her first post about it is HERE.

Now it's your turn to help ~ you can support this cause by purchasing this adorable image (either digital or clear stamp) from i{heart}papers and 100% of the money raised will go to Katie & her family.  Here's my contribution to the blog hop today.



(Digi Image/Stamp: Keep Swimming by Becky Oehlers; Patter Paper ~ Echo Park Splash; 
Copic Markers; Juicy Orange Sparkly Fluff ~ Our Craft Lounge; Nestabilities)

This exclusive stamp has been designed by Becky Oehlers is available as a clear stamp, as well as a digis or a dig and SVG cut file.  In addition to the Keep Swimming Octopus, Marianne Walker and D Doodle Designs both also donated digis that are for sale HERE.  Direct donations are also being accepted.  You can find all the information for purchasing or donating HERE



I hope you will join me in supporting Katie through a purchase or donation.  I hope our creations today inspired you to purchase or donate.  If you would like to send Katie a card, her mailing address is:

Enjoy the hop ~ KEEP SWIMMING KATIE!
