Stamp Out Cancer with Card Making!

15 years ago my sister died of Breast Cancer. She was a vibrant person, with 3 beautiful children and a loving husband. It's fair to say she touched many lives during her illness and her life.

Since she was diagnosed I've raised over £3,000 through card making, card sales and having my company logo dyed into my hair! I've continued to support various charities while building my own crafting business. Now I'd like to have a Stampathon - a marathon card making event to raise money for the charities I've chosen, but also to have fun! Rachel would have loved this idea. Creativity, cake, friends and family - what more could you ask for?

Challenge: Make 1,500 cards on Saturday 28th September 2019 & raise £1,500 too!

So, what do I need to help me achieve my goal? Three things! Firstly, I need the products to make the cards, secondly people to make the cards with me and finally cash to donate!

I would love to donate 1,500 in cards AND £1,500 in cash!

Book in For The Event

Firstly, we need people to come and stamp with us, so if that's you or you fancy joining in and having a go then click here . You can come along make 20 cards in an hour with lots of expert help! Keep 5 or donate them too. You can also choose to sponsor a bit more and stay all morning, afternoon or all day!!

DONATE CASH

If crafting is not your thing, then I would love for you to help me raise even more money for these charities by donating an amount here on this page right now. All money after costs will go to:

Breast Cancer Now,

Royal Surrey County Hospital Charity, with all money raised supporting St Luke's, and

Frimley Park Hospital Breast Care Unit.

The cards we make will be donated to these charities so they can then sell them on using Stampin' Up!'s Angel policy. Which means they will raise even more funds. Everyone who attends can keep 5 of their cards if they wish to give to family & friends, or you can donate them back into the total!

You should know that there are fees associated with this page, but only those to pay the payment provider. So, for example, a £26 donation today will provide £25 worth of funding. I will be updating this page over the coming weeks with how that money will be used by the charities.

Any amount would be amazing and help me reach my goal in memory of Rachel!

UPDATED 4th Sept: All materials have been donated or now purchased!! All money raised on this page is going towards my £1,500 goal now!

Big Thanks to Hobbycraft Farnborough for donating Cello bags & glue!!!

I will be donating card stock and other materials, but we needed a lot plus other things too! Products purchased will include card stock, envelopes, cello bags for packaging, adhesives and ribbon / rhinestones! because we all love a little sparkle don't we?!? The stamps, inks and tools will be provided by me or lent for the day by my wonderful team The Royal Stampers.

Help me make lots of cards to give joy to people going through tough times and help me give to some wonderful charities in celebration of her life!
