I am so excited to be a part of this.
Karen Russell is heading up the COOLEST fundraiser. It’s for Women for Women International. It’s a charity that helps women in war-torn and impoverished countries get on their feet. I was watching a television program recently that was showing how when women get money and education, it helps their family. For generations. Way more than when a man gets money or education, even. I thought that was so fascinating. So imagine my delight when I found out I could be a teeny tiny part of helping women who really need it.
So Karen is taking donations for the charity and got a bunch of people involved. Every dollar spent is like a raffle ticket for prizes. She has more than 70 AWESOME designers willing to scrap pictures for winners as well as prize packages donated by manufacturers. I know I’d love to get a custom page from a favorite scrapper.
Go check out her blog for details and let’s give power to the women!

That sounds really cool. I love feeling like I can help people around the world in some small way. I’m going to check out Karen Russell’s site:)
Hi Shannon!
I was at Loni’s site and I thought, “I recognize that photo!” It linked over to your site, and it turns out that Terri at Picture Passion had just emailed me your photo and info to do a flyer and add to the store’s newsletter for your photog. class! Small world!
Just wanted to say hi and to tell you I hope I’ll be able to attend the PP class later in May.
And… you are so darn photogenic!!!
Will you teach us how to POSE in the “Photography for Scrapbookers” class????
