Welcome to Clear Dollar Stamps Monthly Blog Hop

This on is honor or OUR KATIE....KATIE RENZ

You should have just come from the Creative Christi's Blog. If not then you are going to want to start at the beginning at the Clear Dollar Stamps Blog HERE.

After my blog hop on over to Lovely Linda's Blog.

Katie is the face of our Tutorial Tuesdays.

She spent Christmas in the hospital after being diagnosed with a rare stomach cancer which is inoperable.


She's undergoing chemo treatments.

HELPING OUR KATIE
We love our Katie and want to help her and her family with the costs of her cancer treatments.
Others have contributed to helping Katie through jakheath.com
And now Clear Dollar Stamps has put together some more digis with others to continue to help Katie along her journey. The cost of this collection of digis (these are just the ones Clear Dollar Stamps has donated) is $15 and all of it goes to Katie's cancer fight.



She said goodbye to her hair and still looks beautiful.

It's my Potty!
by Laurie Wilson

This image is a special request of Katie.
