We are in no way affiliated with global giving, that's just our chosen method of getting funds safely to the affected area.<br /><br />Later this week Jo will be putting up a list of all the blogs involved in this appeal, each of which will be hosting their own raffle or auction, each requiring separate donations. So if you're not interested in fabric, there will be lots of other things to tempt you. Do please check out the others and enter as many as you can afford. Let's do what we can to help those in need. And if you blog, or Facebook, or Tweet, or have friends in real life, please do spread the word!<br /><br />Thank you and blessings to all,<br />MarieCrystal Cave Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10747056774295804008noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1333928963882980445.post-67720446147920742832008-09-09T11:50:00.000-07:002008-09-15T10:39:34.050-07:00Crystal Cave Creations Premiere Edition!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdEKw5oDze6gQO5Kyxk1Y9DFIkqCY6Bh_BY28pmJAiojvphRtjqXzEX6xsdtouRIb3p62QuS1O_epLMpCFx6Im2kkRYTc6Bjh89KRhSl1dLmIHADnV47cKevWIODEoS1KNpoSK14UkZ-I/s1600-h/38424922_43cfbd0b46_o.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5244770131525229218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 455px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 230px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdEKw5oDze6gQO5Kyxk1Y9DFIkqCY6Bh_BY28pmJAiojvphRtjqXzEX6xsdtouRIb3p62QuS1O_epLMpCFx6Im2kkRYTc6Bjh89KRhSl1dLmIHADnV47cKevWIODEoS1KNpoSK14UkZ-I/s320/38424922_43cfbd0b46_o.jpg" border="0" /> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" equiv="Content-Type"><meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"><meta content="Microsoft Word 10" name="Generator"><meta content="Microsoft Word 10" name="Originator"><link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CADMINI%7E1%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C04%5Cclip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"><style> <!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} a:link, span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue; text-decoration:underline; text-underline:single;} a:visited, span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:purple; text-decoration:underline; text-underline:single;} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style>

Stephanie Nielson is a very creative and active blogger via her own site, <a href="http://www.nieniedialogues.blogspot.com/">The NieNie Dialogues</a>. As written on the Nie Recovery Website:
<br />
<br />"On Saturday, August 16, 2008, Stephanie Nielson was in a plane crash with her husband, Christian Nielson, and his flight instructor, Doug Kinnear, near St. John's Arizona. Doug Kinnear passed away soon after arriving at the Maricopa County Hospital. Christian and Stephanie remain in critical condition at Maricopa Burn Center. Christian has sustained burns on ov er 30% of his body. His wife Stephanie's body was burned over 80%. For the past four years, Stephanie has welcomed us into her charming abode through the <a href="http://www.nieniedialogues.blogspot.com/">NieNie Dialogues</a>. Far from being a product of creative editing, the Nielson's don't just shine through the selective lens of a blog. They are ingenuous examples of family devotion, eternal romance, and Christ centered faith. This site is dedicated to their welfare and recovery."
<br />
<br />Kim from <a href="http://www.todayscreativeblog.blogspot.com/">Today's Creative Blog</a> has asked that everyone who can, get involved in order to help the Nielson family - and one suggestion was to have an auction of hand made/crafty things. Here are my initial submissions to the auction - and if anyone wants to put in a bid on any of the items, write to me at <span style="COLOR: rgb(255,102,0)">CrystalCaveCreations@gmail.com</span> and I'll make sure to send you instructions as to how to bid on them via <a href="http://www.todayscreativeblog.blogspot.com/">Today's Creative Blog</a>. All donations will go to the Nielson Family. If you'd like to donate to the Nielson family in any other way, you're welcome to click here:
