My personal wish is to continue the philosophy that a simple purchase, an overheard conversation, a small change in routine, or a found sense of compassion could save lives and effect change. It happens all the time.</span></p>http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1257732800http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1257732800Wed, 06 Oct 2010 17:19:57 -0400<p> <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.etsy.com/flash/spots/etsy_mini.swf?user_id=10982583&amp;user_name=bettyblake2010&amp;item_source=shop&amp;item_size=gallery&amp;rows=4&amp;columns=1" width="170" height="730"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.etsy.com/flash/spots/etsy_mini.swf?user_id=10982583&amp;user_name=bettyblake2010&amp;item_source=shop&amp;item_size=gallery&amp;rows=4&amp;columns=1"></object> <a href="http://www.etsy.com">Etsy</a><br/><a href="http://bettyblake2010.etsy.com">bettyblake2010</a></p>http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1250886974http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1250886974Tue, 05 Oct 2010 16:50:59 -0400tigerssave the tigerscotton canvas toteetsyGIVE BACK<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l99gx6RcW11qdcrrzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Year of the Tiger!</p>http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1179623800http://bettyblake.tumblr.com/post/1179623800Fri, 24 Sep 2010 13:07:54 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l8k1fwUCCV1qdcrrzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Here’s the Lion ‘in progress.’ This will be the 2nd and final design in the 1st edition of the Give Back! series.
