Good Morning! It is time for our SAVE THE HOOTERS BLOG HOP!
If you are just getting to the hop, you will want to start at the FIRST hop stop with the
I was discussing some designs with some friends. Sheryl (one of our beautiful DT members) had the idea of making an owl for a save the hooters theme. She had my brain just rolling all around that idea, and this is what I came up with. She saw them first and loved them, and so did I, and I hope you will as well. I really like to make others smile. That is exactly what I was going for with these cute and fun images. I also wanted to keep them modest so that anyone could use them. Another friend of mine brings reminds me to think about things from a Christian standpoint. Would God approve. No one really knows how much I do think about that. EVERY image I create gets set aside until I know it is ok. Some sit longer than others :D I have been asked to design some things, but when that funny feeling hits me, I know it is not right and I can't create it. I do hope these stamps will be able to not only raise awareness but make many smile when they receive a card or gift and know they are being supported and loved.
If you have already hopped you know that part of your purchase will be donated to
Chemo Angels.

If you are not familiar with
Chemo Angels, we encourage you to look them up. Here is a little bit about their amazing program:
Chemo Angels is a
volunteer organization dedicated to adding a ray of sunshine to the
lives of those undergoing IV chemo treatment. We believe people going
through the physical, emotional and mental rigors of chemotherapy
deserve some encouragement. Many of our Chemo Angel volunteers are
cancer survivors themselves, or people whose lives have been affected by
cancer in some way. Our common denominator is a desire to brighten the
lives of cancer patients while they are going through this challenging
time.
Here is some information on the different types of Angels:
- Traditional Angels are
assigned to a specific patient. They send their patient at least one
card or letter and a small, inexpensive gift every week.
- Card Angels are assigned to a specific patient. They send their patient at least one card or letter every week.
- Support Angels make regular financial contributions to the Chemo Angels Cancer Support Organization.
- Prayer Angels are
put on a mailing list and notified whenever any of our patients has a
special need of prayers. To become a Prayer Angel, send a request to
admin@chemoangels.com
They are a wonderful and truly inspiring organization. They provide
comfort and support to individuals battling all forms of cancer; and as
you can see, they have ways to help in the form of time, cards,
prayers...as well as monetary donations. To find out more about how
Fresh Brewed Designs will be taking part, read
