Let's Help Our Sister Scrapbooker!

Have you seen this?

That's What Friends Are For

The wonderful thing about being a part of the digi-scrap community is the way that we come together from all over the world, to raise money for a cause, a catastrophe or a friend in need.

This time we come together for one of our own.

Melissa Melanson-Dawes (aka LissyKay Designs) just underwent her 14th spine operation and now has to face yet another operation. She has had to take her 3rd leave of absence from work and will have to stay on bed rest following this next operation through the end of the year. With all the medical bills and cost of living, the family is not in a financial position to do this, but has no choice, as Melissa's spine damage has worsened to the point that she was losing the ability to walk.

Still recovering from the last round of surgeries, the family now finds themselves in an even worse position than before. Melissa still needs more treatment and the family is facing losing their small condo due to their finances being drained. We hope that you will join in and help the Dawes family during their time of need, so that Melissa can continue to receive the life-saving care she requires. They have kept the drastic nature of their situation quite private, but it is at a point they stand to lose what little they have, and this will impact the further care that Melissa needs.

Many know Melissa has struggled for years, but most don't know this all started when she was in a car accident as a teenager. Her husband, Alan, works 2 jobs but this barely touches the debt they have had to take on for Melissa's medical treatment. Doctors believe that they finally have a solution to prolong Melissa's physical abilities and with all things going right, she will be able to work for a few more years. The doctor does not expect her to have many years left of employment and she will have to take a permanent disability.

Many thanks to the 22 amazing designers that have come together to help raise money for this wonderful family:

2 Curly Headed Monsters, A Fish Designs, A Little Giggles Designs, Angel Wing Scraps, Anne-Marie Designs, Arizona Girl, Cajun Diva Scraps, Christine Martin, Created by Jill Scraps, Dana's Footprints, Dream4Ever Designs, Ginger's Scraps N Pixels, Jilbert's Bits of Bytes, LouCee Creations, Manu Scraps, NBK Designs, PattyB Scraps, Studio Wendy, The Urban Fairy, Studio4 Designworks, Dagi's Temp-tations & Zesty Designs and their super talented Creative Teams who have created such wonderful layouts for your inspiration!

Ginger of Ginger's Scraps N Pixels gave us a beach kit to play with. It's in the store today on: http://www.godigitalscrapbooking.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=134&zenid=7d366eee325791cbdbfe7815c7d4dd65

I don't have many beach pictures. I'm a fat gal, so I'm not very fond of the beach. However, I've been working on my family history, so I have lots of photos of my grandmother at the beach. This photo is from the 1960s, at Ocean Beach, MD.

I loved Ginger's paper of the pier for this one. The photo is from the late 20s.

And this photo is from the late 30s.

I love the flowers in this cluster.

Ginger makes most of her paper flowers

and I think they are so much fun!!!

Spring Sentiments - April Mixology

Oh my goodness! I have been having fun this weekend! Ginger's Scraps N Pixels over at Go Digital Scrapbooking
http://www.godigitalscrapbooking.com/shop/index.phpmain_page=index&manufacturers_id=134
has this new kit "Spring Sentiments - April Mixology" to play with. Lots of flowers and bird thingys, great way to welcome Spring. (And Praise God, Spring is FINALLY here!)

I really love the leaves on this kit, so I chose to highlight them with this layout. I like the way the green of the baby's shirt is echoed in the frame and leaves and center of the one flower.

I'm trying out different clusters and placement. Not sure this one really works, but it was fun to make. The couch in the kit is so weird, it's fun. I wanted a rug for under the couch, so I filled an oval with one of the background papers. The "Listen to the birdie sing" kinda looked like a hamburger to me in my first layout and it's really a beautiful Word Art, so I highlighted it in this layout.

Ginger really has some interesting flowers, doesn't she? She hand-makes them! Knowing that made me want to find a lovely way to highlight them, so I made a cluster with them and also used one as a pillow for the couch. Loving the rug idea, I used it again. This time using every element in the Mini Kit #1.

This layout is using one of the Templates loaded on the MyMemories software. I don't think I did a very good cluster for the middle, but I wanted to use everything in the kit.

This I created using the beautiful Splats kit. I really love these butterflies!
