Hi ladies,
About 8 or 9 months ago I came on this board with an idea to stamp jewelry as an adoption fundraiser. I hadn't done a craft or anything remotely related since I was about 12 and had no clue where to start. You ladies gave me some great advice and encouragement and pointed me in the right direction.
Anyway, I wanted to come back here and say thank you because the fund-raising was a success (raised about $2,000 on the jewelry alone!) and I have even been able to keep it going as as side business, donating a portion of the proceeds to help with other adoption related fundraisers or charities.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the encouragement so many months ago. I know it might sound silly, but it was honestly the boost I needed to gain the confidence to move forward with the jewelry. You ladies rock!
Here are some pictures and thanks again!

Hi Jillian!!!! Good to see you and hope the adoption process is going well. I still read your blog.
I wanted to say thank you to you since my NSA sent me one of your necklaces in December/January and I wear it every day. Really helped me during the IVF process. I love that this is helping you with adoption fundraising, too.
PAIF and SAIF welcome. IVF questions welcome, too.
Hey lady!! Oh WOW I am so thrilled to see that you are expecting TWINS! Amazing news. Congratulations. It is really special to know that you wore my necklace during the IVF process. Getting some warm fuzzies from that! :-) Thanks for reading my blog too; I hope I can share our little man's picture soon! xo

I can't wait to see your little boy and I've been praying that Russia gets on the ball and everything else gets rolling soon. I wish I still had the pre-paid cell phone I used while in Moscow since it would probably help you but I did some spring cleaning and it is gone. Please let me know if you need anything for your Russia trip when it happens and I can pass along some money saving tips.
PAIF and SAIF welcome. IVF questions welcome, too.
