Connections

It's funny isn't it with life sometimes how people and situations are connected and you don't even realise it.

I've been thinking lately then I need to do more in my life than just work, work, work.

Had considered volunteering to help out perhaps at my local Rose Road or similar(there is one just over the road from where I live), or helping a friend of mine with her scout group, but I'm not really a "people person".

I thought perhaps I could look at supporting a charity by donating a percentage of the sales I make on eBay to them - but then I'd have to decided who I was going to support and don't sell all that much these days.

Then today on facebook there was a post on the Chelsea's Angels page (you may remember I posted about Chelsea just over a year ago) with a plea for people to donate hand-made cards to be sold at a table top sale in a couple of weeks time.

A bit later on a post also appeared on the UK Scrappers forum asking there too. Proof of what a small world it is - I had no idea that Michelle from the Chelsea appeal was a member of UKS.

So I've contacted Michelle and will hopefully be sending her some cards that she can sell. Time is short so they will probably only be some basic cards using printables, but at least it will get me crafting and will hopefully help raise some money.

If you are able to help then please contact Michelle - the main web site is www.chelseasangels.co.uk
