For Emma... In Memory of Ronnie (Please Help raise funds!) Special Charity Digi

Before I go into details about the nature of this post, I want to let you know that this is a Surprise for Emma

I just hope I've done the right thing by keeping it a secret....

Emma this is for you and Ronnie...

.......................................................................................................

Please read Emmas FUNDRAISING PAGE for her story, and the reason behind this important fundraising project...

 Emmas Dad, Ronnie, Tragically lost his life in September 2009 after a head injury caused by an accident at work.

In Ronnies memory, Emma and her family have been raising much needed funds for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance who transferred him to the Hull Royal Infirmary. 

In the last year, Emma, with the help of the wonderful crafting community, has raised a MASSIVE £855 for this wonderful cause... I want to help her reach her £1000 target!!

A year ago, I designed 'Relaxing Ronnie' ....and while he was available in the store,

 he raised a FAB £234

I removed him from the store when Emma set up her shop, and she added him there... and he's raised more funds since!!!

lets try to raise that amount again... and soar above that £1000 mark.... with a new Special Edition Digi:

'Vintage Ronnie'

Please help raise funds for a special cause ...

The Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

YAA Registered Charity No. 1084305.

You can purchase 'Vintage Ronnie' here for £1.50

All proceeds (minus any paypal fees) will be donated to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity

I have also added the original 'Relaxing Ronnie' Digi to the new store, again, all proceeds will be donated to the Charity...

Please help if you can....

Emma, fingers crossed this helps you reach your target... you've done an AMAZING job so far, I know your Dad will be smiling down on you, SO proud of what you've acheived!!

Pollycraft Challenge EASTER and meet CHESTER

Good Morning!!!

Hope its nice and sunny where you are??? its looking promising again here...

Over at the Pollycraft Challenge, the lovely Sandra is our host... and the challenge she has set for us this week is: EASTER

Nice timing wouldn't you say???

The Digi I've used is from last years 'Spring things' range... Eggcellent for sharing

I've hand drawn the letters onto a mix of papers, and hand cut...

I've made the little flowers using a punch and added gems to the centres...

ribbon is from stash...

Hope you like it!?!?

In other news....

Theres a new kid on the Pollycraft block...

Meet Chester...

The idea for a monkey Character came from the lovely Jane... but he took some time to come to life, as I wanted to steer clear of the obvious swinging from trees, holding a banana type images...

The first Chester was the one with the heart... and then thanks to all the DIY my hubby has been 'attempting' lately I had the idea of giving Chester a hammer... which turned into a larger than life hammer!!

A few suggestions from my lovely DT and a few more from my own little bonce.... and Chester was given more larger than life accessories...

 you can grab Chester now...

each image is just 99p, and for those that can't choose.... the full set of 8 is available for £6.50...
