We've reached the $100k mark and the Maverick Award is fully funded!
My last stream for Stand Up Builders 2026 is Saturday August 15th at 5pm AEST. I'm continuing to stitch the SU2C heart logo while raising funds to royally fuck over cancer's day. Anyone can watch, however only fully verified twitch users can comment and interact with me live. You must have your twitch account verified with phone number AND email. This is a security setting for the safety of my existing community and will not be lowered for anyone. Please read and understand this: I do not ever see your phone number or email address. It's simply used to verify that you are an actual human. If you don't want to provide that information, you cannot interact with me while I stream.
I'm embroidering the SU2C heart logo. You can add to the piece, you can stop me stitching entirely, all funds raised go to kick cancer in the ass!
I'm streaming multiple times over the 10 days of the campaign. Some by myself, some with guests, some on other channels for collaborations... it's gonna be good.
Operation Smile™ is a worldwide organization that provides free, life-changing surgery that repairs smiles and reshapes lives, one child at a time. Since 2008, Close To My Heart has provided support to change the lives of over 1,500 children and their families. Each surgery is rather quick, usually 30-40 minutes to change these little lives.
Last night, after a yummy team dinner at Miss India, I had the privilege of attending a fabulous training and premiere night at Brisbane's Mercure Hotel.
Monica and I have an annual selfie tradition, this is the start of our 3rd year!
On this same mission was the actress Kate Walsh (from Grey's Anatomy and other shows). Kate posted this video about her experience on this mission. Watch and see the utter joy on the parents faces as they see their child with their smiles repaired and lives improved!
Starting in September at my Mystery Scrapbooking workshop, it is my goal for my studio to raise $600 for Operation Smile by Christmas. That's enough to change two little lives for the better. You can find out more about this important work here.
There's many ways you can help support Operation Smile.
One way you can help is by purchasing a tshirt. $10 from each shirt goes straight to Operation Smile.
Another way is when you place an order on my website, you can make a donation. You can also donate at any of my studio workshops.
From September 5, you can also purchase an exclusive Base & Bling necklace for $25.
I'm quite excited for this project. I can't wait to email our Australian corporate office and let them know that my studio has helped change two lives (or more)! Will you join with me and help this organization change children's lives?
