~♥♥~ Etsy Project Embrace Team Thread ~♥♥~
Hello and Welcome to the Etsy Project Embrace ChitChat Thread! We are a Universal Coalition of Artists whose main purpose is to create awareness and support for people who have been diagnosed with Cancer, whatever kind it may be. The project began as a way to help our friend and wonderful Etsian, Laura Slocum, who has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and is currently having chemotherapy. You can read more about Laura and her incredible uplifting journey here: http://www.etsy.com/profile.php?user_id=6760712 Feel free to join us on this Thread, by sharing your experiences, giving out healing energy to those who need it and posting any EPE related information including Treasuries, blog posts, donation listings, announcements, etc….. or just a friendly post to say “Hi!”…. We’re glad you’re here!! :)
♥For a list of all our members and for details on how you can join in the growing community of compassionate and caring Etsy sellers, please check out our profile in the Etsy Teams section: http://team.etsy.com/viewteam.php?id=685
♥Many of our members are donating the profits, or percentage of profits, from one or more of their listings to the American Cancer Society (ACS) for cancer research. For a look at our Etsy Project Embrace ACS Fundraiser Page, please click here: http://main.acsevents.org/site/TR/TeamACS/TACSFY09National/895191330?pg=team&fr_id=17840&team_id=529966 Contact Jenn at jennreese7.etsy.com for any questions you may have a bout the logistics of donating to our ACS Team page!
♥We have CHANGED our TAG!! We are using the tag "teamepe" now and to find our member’s donation related listings, please look here: http://www.etsy.com/search_results.php?search_type=all&search_query=teamepe&order=date_desc&ship_to= Any questions on this, please contact Kristin at loveartworks.etsy.com . I realize it is a tad inconvenient to re-tag everything, but it was part of becoming "official" and could not be helped. :)

WOOOOO-HOOOOO!!!
Welcome to the new thread EVERYONE!!!
WE DID IT!!
We are an exciting, wonderful, FUNtabulously Official Etsy Team as of yesterday!!
Hooo-Ray for ALL of us!! :)
BIG THANKS to Kathi Roussel who created the Stunningly Gorgeous Banner for our Team Homepage...YAY Kathi!! You ROCK!! :)
Big THANKS AGAIN to Ames for ALL of your Awesome work on creating and MAINTAINING our outside Etsy Links on Facebook and Twitter...YOU ROCK TOO!! :)
And JENN...Your Work on Keeping up the ACS donation page is INVALUABLE...Thank You for ROCKIN' us out over there! :)
Ginny....Your work on the THREAD is amazing and I am so Grateful.....Rockin' the ETSY connection!! YAY!! :)
And finally......KIM, I could NOT have done this without you...you are the best....massive THANKS!! :)
I think I have covered everything either above in our opening statement, in the letter I am sending out or on the new Team homepage!! If you have ANY questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me!!
~*~#@~*~*#*#*~*#*~!**#~*!!!~*!~#*# And.....YES!! If you read the opening announcement above....YOU MUST change your TAGS!!! Please! There was no way around this as it was done in order to ensure that we are "found" by Etsy Admin when they are searching listings to use in promotions and such. So....DO NOT USE: etsyprojectembrace for tagging any more.
And you will need to CHANGE ALL of your older listings to the NEW TAG of:
teamepe
I cannot stress this enough as this is the Tag that people will be searching for to use in Treasuries, to buy things related to Project Embrace, and any outside promotion! THANK YOU EVERYONE!! :)
Also, I am going to go back to the old thread and "bring" all of Ginny's hard work finding recent Treasuries here to this one, so you don't have to jump back and forth...YAY!!
Have an incredibly creative and awesome weekend everyone!! :) Kristin |
