I am purging, organizing, re-organizing and organizing again LOL!!! I have a box of scrappy fun goodies that I would love to bless a woman who loves this hobby as much as I but may be at a place in her life where she can't afford to purchase or even pick up a few things here or there due to unfortunate circumstances.
Please do not respond if you are well to do, have a stockpile of scrapbooking stuff, a hoarder who never uses your stuff (that's me LOL) or really don't have a need for more stuff. If interested, send me a PeaMail and we will discuss the logistics and no one will have to know your circumstances.
Items include but not limited to (too numerous to name) Various mfgs of Patterned paper, stamps (acrylic & rubber), stickers, cardstock, chipboard, ATC cards, paints, inks, lots of embellies, ribbon, fibers, buttons, brads, markers, fabric, tags, albums, twine, journaling cards, tapes, adhesive, clips, brads, eyelets, letters, glitter, flowers, LO kits, and so much more....again, too numerous to name.
Trust me you won't be disappointed. I'm hoping the goodies find a great deserving home. I donated a huge box to our local hospital and boys and girls club and still have more.
I was hoping the recipient could pay for the shipping charges via PayPal, but I totally understand if circumstances won't allow that. I will get the package to you.
Again, PeaMail me your information and we can go from there. I guess it's only fair to give it to the 1st woman who PeaMail me. I can only go by the honor system and pray you ladies will honor my request to only PeaMail me if you are truly in need.
Have a blessed evening ladies.

JenKitty thanks so much for the offer. I will PeaMail if needed. I got some responses and some great stories. I have a ton of product so I am going to pack up a few boxes to bless the recipients. Most of the items are new, never opened. I use to work in a wonderful local scrapbooking store that closed two years ago and was able to acquire great product for free or for a steal. It makes my heart smile to be able to help another scrapper. It's a blessing to be a blessing. I promised myself that in 2013 it's all about THE GIVE!!! I plan to look for the give throughout the year. |

I have had 3 great responses, and I am happy to report I have enough goodies to ship to all three deserving women. Not that I asked for their story/situation, but I so appreciate them being vulnerable and sharing a piece of them with me. So I had to dig in my stash (you know the stuff I convinced myself I'd eventually use LOL!!) and I now have 3 boxes to mail out tomorrow. With plenty left over for me to get my creative juices flowing.
Thank you ladies for the love and kind words. I am so blessed to be able to not only love this hobby but God has blessed me with the means to purchase product on a regular basis without it being a struggle for me and my family. There are times my eyes and desires are bigger than my wallet and craft space and how many times can I say to my husband "babe it's double sided so I have to buy two pieces. LOL!! So as I purge away, it fills my heart with joy that 3 woman will be able to document the lives of their family and have fun doing it.
Have a blessed and creative day ladies!

Update ladies. 2pkgs shipped yesterday and 3 will ship today. I can't believe I have so much stuff. One woman's story touched me so deeply that I cried. God is so awesome when he places something on your heart and obedience occurs. My heart is smiling and my spirit is over joyed. Thanks again for the kind words.
Look for the give!!!  |

Everything has shipped and/or been received. I plan to do this again soon. I have a few Scrapbooking friends who are purging and I convinced them to donate it to some deserving homes. So I will keep you all posted once I go through their stash and get it situated. Enjoy your evening.
Blessing! |

What an awesome thing for you to do. I was recently the recipient of a huge RAK from another pea, and when I am scared and upset about my dad, I go through the boxes of stuff she gave me and I feel a bit better.
Know that the people you did this for a truly grateful and you are a true blessing. | |

Hi there,
I saw this post and thought I'd write to you again. I went on an interview today, so hopefully I'll have a job soon. In the mean time, I've been living with my parents who have been so supportive and I've organized my ribbons, but not done any scrapping. If you're still considering people to send supplies to, I'd be blessed to be included.
Thanks,
Vicki | |

Hi Vicki. You will have some scrapping goodies coming your way. I will be seeing one of my friends this weekend to go through her stash. I still have stash to go through as well. I will keep you posted. Please PeaMail me your zip code. I pray your interview goes well. Know that God is in control. I pray you find strength in knowing that. I pray all anxiety, fear and doubt is removed and you're filled with confidence. Amen. |
