Leukemia Benefit

Leslie has been diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and will be confined to the hospital for the next 3-5 months undergoing chemotherapy. Proceeds from all donations will go directly to Leslie to help with her medical expenses and lost wages.



We are asking if you would please donate any item that we could use for the benefit. We are looking for donations for (but not limited to):



Basket Raffle Items

Auction Items

Bake Sale Items

Food or Drink Items

Monetary Donations *



* Please make all checks payable to Leslie Carey.





Your kindness is greatly appreciated by both Leslie and the Benefit Organizers.





If you or someone you know would be able and interested in donating something for her benefit, it would be greatly appreciated!
Please contact me at ckmom78@yahoo.com or 563.508.0320 if you can help in any way.
Thanks so much!

Thanks Megan & Robyn for the challenge & inspiration..now hopefully i can do the 2nd part of this challenge....

This one was fun, yet an important thing to be preserved... love me some Sassafrass



I like this one, because it wouldn't be a typical layout from me, i think it truely displays the mood



This was really fun b/c i got to go back down memory lane with my mom, recalling homes & addresses



this one was lots of fun b/c it made me step outside of my box & think about life



Reminds me how much i love to shop at Goodwill



loved the challenge of doing the squares/mini layouts(maybe has something to do with the Sassafrass too;))




first layout that i used tag packaging on




this is one of my fave pictures that Megan has taken & it was fun to use up old papers on this one




loved the bright colors & this just reminds me of how these two girls make 2 x the trouble, the messes, you name it..




a fun one of my daughter & her friends dressing up..
