Stampin’ Out Alzheimer’s event, May 25-June 1

Susanna Boyd & Jen Tapler have joined forces, along with many other stampers in the paper craft community, to help stamp out Alzheimer’s by participating in a very special event.

This event starts next Monday, May 25th, and for one full week, a special short-term community has been created. Here there will be challenges with prizes, tutorials, free kits and much, much more … all in the efforts to raise money for Alzheimer’s disease research. Please take a moment and watch this short video from Susanna, who explains all about the event…

To find out more, please join all of us over at Stampin’ Out Alzheimer’s on Monday 25th and become a part of this very special community where 100% of the proceeds will go to The Alzheimer’s Association at www.alz.org . You can begin and sign-up today.

Plus, Kitchen Sink Stamps want to do their part too! In addition to hosting a challenge on Stampin’ Out Alzheimer’s with a very special prize … KSS will be running a 10% off sale during the entire week of the event and will donate 10% of the net sales from the week to the The Alzheimer’s Association. To find out more, you’ll have to join me over at Stampin’ Out Alzheimer’s.

Thank you in advance for your help and support!

A Tropical Monday

It is a tropical Monday in the Kitchen today!

Grab your sunscreen and flip flops … and get ready for summer!

I have been working on this project for awhile and I am finally getting a chance to share it today. It was inspired by a style of t-shirt I remember from my youth… back in (cough, cough). This t-shirt had a single band of hibiscus flowers running cross the chest and wrapping around the back for a complete circle. It was Totally Cool!!!

This is my version of a Hawaiian hibiscus t-shirt that I grew up wearing.

For more KSS Monday inspiration, please check out what the rest of the KS Crew has cooked up for you:

Angela • Connie • Julie • Lisa • Lori • Lynn • Makiko • Tammy
