Featured Blogger - Helen of Let's create

Hello lovely peeps,

Hope you are having a nice Wednesday. It is 8.40 pm as I write this post... Today was a busy day indeed. Met a lovely friend for coffee and then had three children over for a playdate but only two turned up which is just as well... Aleeza was thrilled.

Now to the featured blogger of the month - Helen of http://helenmade.blogspot.com/

Helen is an amazing crafter - she does origami, crochet, quilling, you name it... EVERY paper craft under the sun!!! Her level of patience with crafting is almost unbeatable.And she is always there to help out incase you are stuck with any blogger problems.

And to top it all she has a heart of gold. Thank you, Helen, for making my crafting journey so wonderful. I really appreciate your kindness in every which way.

Do leave Helen some blog love whenever you get the chance - worth every second of your time.

Am off to do some commenting now...

Hugs,

Monica

I saw your lovely cards that you have sold, and think that you are truly wonderful. I tried leaving some comments earlier in the week, but blogger was being "very difficult". I think we are having some better luck now. Warm wishes; 2 June 2011 at 00:34

About Me

My name is Monica and I am a mother to two lovely girls aged 22 and 14. We moved back to Singapore in June 2014 after having lived in Jakarta, Indonesia and Mumbai. I have a background in Psychology and Sociology Honours along with a post grad diploma in Journalism. I used to work in direct marketing for a premium hotel in India before I decided to become a stay at home mother. I have been creating and selling greeting cards for charity since 17 years. I often use unusual packaging material on my cards to respect and care for the environment. Presently, I share my cards as well as the proceeds from their sales with a shelter that houses and supports abused women in Singapore. Besides this, I run an initiative (UNITED WORLD SANCTUARY - UWS) on meditation, wellness, art and culture. You can find my page on Facebook under the name of UNITED WORLD SANCTUARY-UWS. I also hold mindfulness/wellness workshops for parents in my younger one's school. Besides, I hold Mindful Art and Card workshops for mothers and children.
