I am finally back

Finally my Monday blog posts are back!

Monday blog post #81

I got lost in custom orders and I couldn't find time to sit down and write a post. I am really sorry and I will try not to repeat this again.

Since I came back from my long vacation, which I spent mostly in Croatia, I've been working on several orders and projects...

Maybe few photos from my vacation first?

For the fourth year I will be participating in Ladies of Harley Breast Cancer Awareness Day. This year it is going to be at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Doha, on 10th October from 4 to 6 pm and you are all welcome to come and show your love and support. For this time I have made an illustration which will be used for the coloring sheets and for making badges.

Giving back to community

Monday blog post #48

Hello!
Happy to see you :)

This Monday blog post is about giving back to community.

MIA PARK BAZAAR October 2013

It is going to be 3 years in January since I've moved to Qatar. I can't believe how time flies when you enjoy what you do, when you explore new opportunities and meet new people. Qatar became my home and I've decided to give back to this community.

Giving back to community doesn't need to include money but giving a bit of your free time and your heart.

On Friday it was a really hot day around 40 degrees or even more and we were getting ready for Ladies of Harley Breast Cancer Awareness Day event. It's my 3rd year now since I've became active in this event. It was organized at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Doha and it was beautiful. Hayat cancer support group representative was also present. I told her about my initiative for raising money for the breast cancer patients who need money for the treatment and she was so happy and promised to put me in contact with them. I want to thank Margarita for organizing everything and giving me the opportunity for being involved in such an amazing event.

Just a quick reminder about my initiative: I painted a painting Little Pink Angel and made 5 different items, paper goods with that image. I'm selling them at the events and online. You can find them all on this link

On Saturday I was at the Museum of Islamic Art Park Bazaar from 12-5pm. I almost melted how hot it was, 41 degrees. My friend Aly saved me with a big shade she brought. If there wasn't her I wouldn't be even considering of staying in the sun. There was not many customers but those who came were really supportive and they melted my heart :)

Here are some photos to see how I managed to survive even I got sunburned :)))

Doha Flea Market

Monday blog post #47

First edition of Doha Flea Market took place on 28th September 2013, from 4 to 11pm at the Doha Swiss Bell hotel ballroom. There were 50 sellers and plenty of visitors. I was a bit tired and not quite myself :))) because I just arrived that morning from Istanbul.

I had only products with the Little Pink Angel illustration because I was raising money for the families in need who's members are fighting the breast cancer. Profit from each sale goes for this cause. I will be raising money during events in October as well and I will be posting information on how much I've raised, on my blog and on my Facebook Page. So far I've raised 695 qr (or $190). At the end of October I will give the money to Hayat Cancer Support Group.

If you want to give your support and buy items with a Little Pink Angel illustration please find all the items under this link and send me an email to cherubins3@gmail.com

These are the photos from the first Doha Flea Market

In the corner of my heart

Monday blog post #45

In 2011 my friend Margarita invited me to join the group Ladies of Harley as I'm riding sometimes with my husband as a passenger. The group is very active especially when it comes to charity and since 2009 Margarita has been organizing the kick off ride for the breast cancer awareness month in October.

I joined them in 2011 and it is going to be my third year that I'm involved in this event to raise the awareness and money for the families in need who's members are fighting cancer. We are going to have an event on 4th October at the Ritz Carlton Hotel and everyone is welcome!

Separate from that, I'm also working on my own project for the same purpose. I created this little angel illustration and I'm going to make postcards, prints, bookmarks, calendars with this image and the profit from the sale at the upcoming events and markets in October will go to charity.

I would like to share with you the creating process of my Little Pink Angel.
