Blog train freebie

2011-06-15T00:01:00.001+01:00

Many of you will know from your journeys on our train we have a very dear and sweet lady called Artmama
who is currently in hospital after having one of her seizures.
She was placed into an induced coma due to swelling of the brain.
Artmama is now out of the coma and thankfully on the road to recovery.
Doctors have informed the family that it will be a slow process that can take up to a year.
Artmama has now been moved into a nursing facility which is of course very expensive.
If you would like to help then please consider purchasing Artmamas store.

You can find it here

We have a lot of stops this month so please enjoy

and remember to thank them for their part

Create a tutorial using any of my kits for the chance to win a $5 gift certificate for my store here
All applicants will have their names put into a box and my children will pick out the winner.
In my opinion this makes it fair on everyone who enters.
