Valentine's Heart for Charity 2011

It's that time of year again! I love giving to this charity! I can't imagine how hard the mission is to provide clean water for people that don't have any. I love being able to help in the little ways that I can and I hope you find it a blessing to do so as well. I am running a promotion to use my God-given talents to bless this village. Please watch the video!

My campaign goal is $500 and I am doing a couple of great things to raise money for this effort and am using Valentine's Day as a springboard! First, I customized a PERFECT Valentine's Day card that you can send to your family and friends or use for trading at school! Send me a picture of your child (or children) and I can pop your picture in the card and send it back to you. It will be ready for you to take to your favorite processing lab for prints! I will do some minor editing to the image you send me and I can also make the image black and white at your request. Here are a couple of versions I've created from my own pictures to give you an idea:





I love these cards! You may not be able to see the details (like pink polka dots) on your computer screen, but they are super cute! What is shown is a 5x7 size. You may request a 4x6 size instead of a 5x7--the elements will be smaller. I am doing this service for FREE! In return, please help me raise money for building water wells. Donate whatever amount you want HERE and send your child's picture to jholub@capturingcreations.com(no minimum required).

Another way I'd like to use my talents to bless is by offering Valentine's Day mini sessions! The sessions will be held at Old Town Spring on Saturday, January 22nd. Here's a preview!

This picture was taken at Mercer Arboretum, but I plan on using vintage processing on these sessions, which makes Old Town Spring the perfect location!

Only 5 time slots are available!

Valentine's Day mini-sessions are 50% off the regular price, so $75, and you will receive a free *matboard mounted* 8x10.

Valentine's Date mini-sessions are new for this year! Grab a boyfriend or girlfriend and combine your sessions to one slot for a fee of $80 ($40 each)! You will receive 2 regular 8x10 prints.

With both types of sessions, all proceeds will go to the charity! Please pay your session fee(s) HERE to get started and reserve your slot now! Session times are 12:00, 12:30, 1:00, 1:30, and 2:00. You may email me your desired time choice or indicate your desired time in the comments section of your donation. Hurry! If you would like to do the mini-session, but your busy schedule will not allow you to do it on the 22nd, that is perfectly fine, we can find a day that works for you. Donate before Friday the 21st and please keep in mind that in your case, I can't guarantee you'll have your pictures back by or before Valentine's day.

Thank you so much if you decide to donate for any and all reasons. Donating for the awesome cards, the cool vintage sessions, or for no reason other than to help raise money for water wells is a great thing, and I hope and pray you will feel blessed. $1, $5, $10 would help anybody--every little bit counts. $20 will give 1 person clean water for 20 years! That's amazing. Please share your Valentine's Heart with this village of people and give a great gift of clean water. Thank you!! :)
