Haiti Relief


As you know on January 12, 2010 a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti and in less than a minute changed our lives forever! Weeks later just thinking about the devastation, the lives of loved ones near and far bring unstoppable tears to my eyes. I love my country with all my heart and it has been really hard seeing the images in the media while being away wanting to be there to help. I am so thankful for the outpouring of support from all over the world and remain hopeful that with our resilience and faith we will rebuild better, stronger and wiser.
Stampin'Up! is also doing their part and it makes me even more proud to be part of such a wonderful company! In addition to preparing 5,000 hygiene kits they are donating $2.00 from the sale of every I {Heart} Hearts stamp set which will be donated to the American Red Cross' Haiti Relief and Development Fund. So you know of course that was the first thing on my list for overdue order. I will take a picture of the first project I make using it to share.
Hug the ones you love and let them know how you feel....tomorrow is not guaranteed. Kisses everyone!
