As you all know I am all about supporting good causes and this one is very special to a lot of people I care about. My goddess daughter (aka goddaughter) Ava is taking part in the Out of The Darkness Walk this fall in memory of her big sister Mia who recently passed away. I am reaching out to my Freaky Fanatics because I know this will help her find some closure by doing this in her sister’s memory. If you can, please visit her donation link here and help her reach her goal by September 17th. Any amount no matter how big or small would mean the world to her right now. ๐

Back Bone: Keep It Handmade Animal Themed Auction
2As you all know I love to use my talents to help others in need. I was recently asked to take part in another Instagram Online Artist Auction. This one being a little different then the last as one item must be donated to help a feline friend in need. As a cat mom who has had to spend a lot of money trying to save her own furbabies I could definitely relate and immediately jumped on board.
So with all that said, if you are on Instagram please follow @keepithandmade I will have these 3 items in their upcoming animal themed #artist #auction starting Nov. 13th!
When the auction goes live, look for the special items with paw prints. Those are the items specifically donated by the participating artists to help raise money for kitty Peeta. Which means you can get some holiday shopping done while helping a great cause and supporting artists all at the same time! Win! Win! and Win!
See other ways I have used my artwork to give back in the Back Bone section of my portfolio website!
Stay Spooky & Supportive!

Back Bone: Team Rosie Update!

I took this photo last year at my Uncle Randy’s birthday dinner. Little did we know it would be the last time we would all be together to celebrate with him. As you can see Rosie is front and center and he is smirking at her as my Aunt Mary holds up the cake as we all sang Happy Birthday to him. She always had a way to make him smile.
I share this photo with all of you because this Friday would’ve been Uncle Randy’s birthday and ironically enough we have moved into the 1st place spot for the most money raised! What a wonderfully timed milestone. This is all due to your support, shares, and donations! He would be so happy and proud of what we have accomplished so far and would be rooting for us to keep going until we reach our team goal!
If you have not donated yet please know that any amount is ok. This is not about who donates the most but about giving what you can. It all adds up and it all goes to the same wonderful cause.
If you have already donated please continue to share my fundraising linkย https://give.classy.org/nicatnightย with your connections on social media an/or email. Your shares are what informs people what we are trying to accomplish. It’s free to share it and only takes a moment of your time. That moment could lead to wonderful things. Look what it’s done so far!
Thank you again to everyone who has helped us get to where we are right now! We could not have done it without you. My family is so grateful for all of your support.
Go TEAM ROSIE!

Back Bone: Team Rosie Lives On In All Of Us
0As some of you may know, we lost my Uncle Randy unexpectedly this year. What you may or may not know is he was incredibly passionate about supporting Down in the Southland on behalf of his daughter Rosemary. A few years ago he started Team Rosie to help raise money for their Annual Fundraiser Walk.
This is the last thing he posted on Facebook before he passed away…

I am walking again this year to keep his legacy going strong for my cousin and to help raise money for this wonderful foundation he wholeheartedly believed in!
How can you help?
Donate: Simply make a donation on my fundraising page at https://give.classy.org/nicatnight to support Down in the Southland on behalf of Team Rosie.
