Freebie QP using Sugarplum Fairy by Ladybug Pages

I was honored by Ladybug Pages to do a layout with her wonderful new kit Sugarplum Fairy

This kit is such a pretty kit with lots of beautiful elements and papers.

It's available here and she has matching Clusters and an Album too.

Here's my layout below it's a picture of my daughter Kim, taken earlier this year before she was diagnoised with Cancer.

I've turned the page into a QP for you all with Ladybug Pages permission of course.

You can download it here

Hope you like it, and be sure to check out the kit at the link above.

Mega Charity Kit for Kim

**Click the little x on the bottom of the slide show to see info on each designer's submission

A Charity collab for my daughter Kimberly, 19 who was diagnosed with Stage 2 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma on July 6th, 2010.

This kit contains some Hodgkin's Lymphoma and Lymphoma awareness items, but is mostly a kit created with every scrapper in mind, and can be used for any occasion as you can see from the slide show above.

This kit was created with the help of some very talented designers to help raise funds for Kimberly to cover costs that are not covered by our health care. Medications, treatments, a wig, gas, parking, as well as her other bills as she is unable to work.

100% of the proceeds of this kit will go to Kim to support her with her battle against this horrible disease.

Your purchase of this kit is greatly appreciated.

This is a huge charity collab with the contribution of 43 designers and contains:

903 Elements (127 are CU), 327 Papers (27 are CU) and 8 Alphas

It is approximately 2.15GB and valued at over $150-$200 as it contains both PU/S4H/S4O and CU items.

There is also a $4 Coupon from Karen Stimson

Special thanks from the bottom of my heart to the following designers for taking the time to create the beautiful contributions to this kit, and making it such a large beautiful kit. I truly could not have done this without you. May God bless you all:

Charity kit for my daughter

On June 7th, they discovered a tumor on my 2nd eldest daughter, Kim's lung. She's 19.

After much testing etc...we were told on July 6th that she has Stage 2 Hodgkin's Lymphoma.

She must undergo two more tests to make sure it's not higher then the Stage 2, one being a Bone Marrow Biopsy, to make sure the cancer hasn't entered into her bone marrow.

In honor of my daughter, and to help her with costs that are not covered, and her bills as she will be unable to work until all treatments are finished (approx 6 months), I am working with

some very kind and generious designers who offered to help out by contirbuting to make this a mega kit

which will be sold both here on my blog, The Creativity Box, and My Scrap Store.

If you would like to help by contributing to the kit, please email me at: eal.designs2@gmail.com

Below is the colour palette chosen as Violet is the colour for Hodgkin's Lymphoma Awarenss

and Green is for Lymphoma Awareness.

I'd like it to not just be about awareness, but to be something anyone can use as well, upbeat, and positive.

The name of the kit is: Courage, Strength, and Love - Tools to fight

(as the doctors said this is what she'll need to fight and beat this)

It will be a Hodgkin's Lymphoma Awareness kit, with so much more so that anyone can use it.

Also if you could send up some prayers for Kim, we'd really appreciate it, as we believe in the power of prayer.

Thanking you in advance
