Wearing Jay for Gray today & Fiesta, Fiesta!

Posted on May 5, 2012

Today at TLP we have another set of new releases for you as part of our iNSD celebrations! There is a special charity collab kit that the TLP designers put together that’s very close to my heart as well as Jacque’s, I’ll let Jacque explain:

There are over 600,000 people in the US living with brain tumors. There are over 120 different types of brain tumors. My sweet brother, Jay, is one of those statistics.
As May is Brain Tumor Awareness month this kit was designed to support and celebrate those affected by brain tumors. With Jay’s tumor came chemo and radiation and hospital stays. But it also brought hope, a desire to be involved and recognition of his great accomplishments and skills. This kit speaks to the devastation of brain tumors but also to the amazing functioning of our brains! Jay is a prime example. He is smart, kind, talented and determined. His ability to cope and persist is unmatched. He is the motivator behind this kit. Support and celebrate with us through Brain Smart! I am so grateful to be a part of an amazingly talented and GIVING community. The-LilyPad designers have been so supportive in contributing to this AMAZING collab! ALL proceeds from sales during the month of May will go directly to http://www.braintumor.org/giving/donate-now.html. This will allow the National Brain Tumor Society to advance research for a cure and to provide much-needed programs and services to meet the needs of patients and families coping with a brain tumor today. Families just like mine!

Join my family and friends as we ALL “Wear Gray for Jay” (and all those we love affected by brain tumors) on Saturday, May 5th! Share with us in faith, in hope and in love as we pray for healing and a cure! “No One Fights Alone!”

So today I am wearing grey for Jay! Here’s the collab which will be available throughout May – Brain Tumour Awareness month – and is 30% off through Monday (all proceeds go to The National Brain Tumour Society):

Also new today is a Cinco de Mayo inspired pack of super colourful doodles! Fiesta, Fiesta! is also on sale at 30% off through Monday:

Funky Junky is BACK!

Posted on April 20, 2012

Yay! I am so excited to tell you today’s new release! After a little break from designing, the fabulous Michelle Godin is back guesting at The Lilypad and so it only seemed right that we get together with our old pal Rachel Young to create a new Funky Junky kit! The result is Funky Junky Family Tree, an eclectic mix of hand made elements, hand drawn doodles, junk store finds, painted papers and vintage patterns! Perfect for all your family history pages and projects along with outdoor and everyday pages, Funky Junky Family Tree is 20% off all weekend!

Come and join Michelle, Rachel and me in The Lilypad chat room as we celebrate the return of Funky Junky! The chat is tonight (Friday, April 20th) and it starts at 7pm EST – which is midnight here in the UK so I will need lots of chatters to help keep me awake! I hope you will pop in and join us if you can!
