Little Miss Muffet post for Cassandra

Happy Friday! We are having a special release and post at Little Miss Muffet today in honor of Cassandra, the daughter of Barbara, the owner of LMM and artist of many of the gorgeous stamps in the store. Cassandra is an 11 year old little lady who happens to be deaf. She has a petition that she would love all of you to sign to help her get something called CART in her school. This is a real time captioning that would allow her to see the written version of everything spoken in class. You can read all about Cassandra and her petition on this page : CART for Cassandra.  The page is full of information and really explains CART well and the need for it. There is a link to the petition, that you can click on and even an address to send a card to Cassandra.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, hope you will take a moment to sign Cassandra's petition.

I've used the sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 #232, today.

Sweet Watermelon

Just returned from a very relaxing vacation on Cape Cod, plenty of sun, fun and good food. I'm hosting the CAS challenge on SCS this week and the theme is Summer Treats. Watermelon is one of my favorite summer fruits, so I was delighted with the Stamps of Life set for July. The word die was included with the die set, too. 

My sketch comes from Freshly Made Sketches 195. I thought this was a great sketch this week and am so glad I had a bit of time to play along.
