Help 4 Katie Blog Hop by CDS

We are dedicating the Clear Dollar Stamps monthly blog hop to the Help 4 katie cause this month!

After my blog, you need to go to AMANDA's.

It all starts on Lori's blog.  Make sure you start there!  There are prizes available as well, you are entered just for making a donation using the payment buttons on the Help 4 Katie blog!

I have created a CAS card using Prairie Wagon digital image set that you can only get in a special bundle as a gift for making a donation to helping Katie.  When you get to the end of the blog hop, you will be on the Help 4 Katie blog where you can make the donation and receive a digital download gift package containing a nice assortment of digital products donated by various companies.

You can read all about Katie and why she needs help HERE.

Here is what I made with Prairie Wagon.

I printed the image on watercolor paper and watercolored with Tombow markers and a waterbrush.  I sponged around the edges of the image panel and tag sentiment.

SUPPLIES:

• IMAGE: Prairie Wagon by CDS included in a donation digital package at help4katie.blogspot.com
• CS/PAPER: 90 lb. watercolor paper
• INK: printer, Su marker marina mist, Tombow markers 946, 879, 098, early espresso inkpad
• ACCENTS/TOOLS: waterbrush, sponge, spellbinders tag die, brown gingham ribbon, pearls, dimensionals

HELP FOR KATIE

Katie Emerson Renz married to Kevin with 3 young boys.   They had some devastating news just before Christmas that has changed everything.

Katie has been diagnosed with stage 4 Stomach Cancer and is currently undergoing her only option which is Chemotherapy.  Katie is updating her blog with her experiences, if you want to check it out.

Jak Heath is a crafting friend to Katie and has organized this special digi benefit to help raise money for Katie's Treatment and to give her lovely boys a treat too.   For a donation of 15 pounds (approx $23) you will be given a HUGE amount of digi's... WORTH WAY MORE than the donation, you will soon see. CHECK THEM OUT ON JAK's BLOG HERE.

Below are the sets that Clear Dollar Stamps illustrators have donated to the fundraising benefit.
