Jen's Sunshine, A charitable Digi Set for Jen Scull

We told you to come back for a very special post today.... and we are so glad you did!
Today we are releasing a very special Digi Set in honor of one of our own!

Jen Scull joined the PMS digi makeover team in the early fall of 2011.  She had been a big supporter and cheerleader  of PMS before ever joining the challenge team and we were so happy to have her aboard!
In January of this year, Jen decided to step down from many of her design teams and get some life priorities back in line.  Oh goodness, we've all been there!  When we realize we havent eaten or slept, played with our kids or done laundry but yet we've done about a half a dozen layouts and a stack of cards!  We completely understood and respected Jen's decision.  What was around the corner for Jen, however, wasn't a big exhale and back to family time.  It was some hard news and very shortly after, Jen discovered she had breast cancer.  It was the cause of her feeling so run down.  The cause of painful seizures she had been having.  The cause of many things.
I'm sure it goes without explaining, how hard something of the magnitude of cancer can be on a family.  Jen has been one of the most courageous women I know, battling this disease with a wonderful outlook and takes each day, 1 day at a time.
Recently, we asked Jen if she would like to join the team again.   Afterall, our design team members are part of the PMS family.  We wanted her to know we supported her just as much as she has supported each one of us.  We know that her posts and cards may not be every week, but we love having her positive outlook and rays of sunshine within our group.
As much as it goes without saying that having cancer has a hard impact on family, but also financially.  We have created this Digi Stamp Set (complete with 2 images and 3 wordarts) as a charity fundraiser for Jen and her family.  ALL proceeds from the sale of this set will go directly to the Scull family to use as they need.
The cost of this set is $10 and you will get both .png and .jpgs of each file.
You can purchase this set HERE.

Here are some peaks of this set..






And here are some samples from the design team!  We will be sharing more samples this week!

Cards by Lisa McKinney



Thank you so much to each one of you who purchases this stamp to help out a true friend of ours!


We will be hosting a Blog Hop for Jen on August 29th.  We do ask that you use one of the digis from this set to participate, but we would love for as many crafters to join in as possible!  We will have all kinds of prizes and extra fun as well!  Keep your peepers out as one of our design team members, Jenn Cochran will be organzing it!
