Hello ladies,
October 2nd was the two year anniversary of my dad’s death from prostate cancer. October 4th was the one year anniversary of a young friend’s death from a different kind of cancer.
Two women (that I know of) from our wonderful stamping and papercrafting community are also fighting their own battles with this despicable disease: Katie Renz and frequent OLW participant, Janelle.
This week, the challenge is to make and send/deliver a “Thinking of You” card to someone who is struggling with any kind of battle. I would also like all participants to make a five dollar (or more!) donation to the cancer research/cause of their choice.
You can donate to Katie’s family by going here.
My husband Mark is participating in Movember this year in Memory of Jack Layton (a well-respected and well-loved Canadian politician who died of cancer in August). Should you wish to sponsor Mark, you can do so by going here.
The above are only two possibilities. You can choose ANY cancer research/cause you like.
When you’ve posted your card, please leave a comment letting me know me know where you made your donation.
Finally, you give, I give. I will randomly pick one person who has made a donation and send them a few goodies.

Oh, oh, oh. Another last thing (heh). There are three winners of stamps from wayyyyy back who have yet to receive their stamps. I’m sorry. I suck. I WILL send them shortly. For realz!
