If you’re a member of the CMS community, there’s no need to explain who Guy is. If you casually collect our freebies, allow me to explain.
Guy is our very talented resident artist. You can check out his work at protoguy.org, or his blog at Work in Progress. He has drawn most of our amazing digital stamps. (I’m to blame for the less than awesome ones.) Guy has been my best friend for the past ten years. He is without a doubt the nicest, most talented person I know. God broke the mold with him.
Guy is having a rough time now. He was recently diagnosed with throat cancer. You can read about it in greater depth on his blog if you like, he’s keeping a fantastic journal there. I cannot begin to explain how this has affected the CMS community. For most of us, Guy is our “Art Hero”. We love him to pieces and it breaks our hearts to know he has to fight this. We’re determined he will not be fighting alone.
So, we are having a fundraiser. We are selling a zip file with every single digital stamp Guy has ever drawn for CMS in it. That’s like a bazillion images. The zip file is affordably priced at $10. Every last penny paid for the zip file will go directly to Guy, so that he can manage his medical bills and living expenses through treatment. Please help us out.
The file is available here: http://shop.copicmarkerscrapbooking.com/STMP-Guy-Fundraiser-STMP-Guy-Fundraiser.htm
Here is my favorite ever stamp that Guy has drawn for CMS, enjoy it.
Drawn by the talented Guy Gondron.

God bless you for doing this, Colleen. I put my order in right away. Tell Guy he is in my prayers.
Such sad news. I plan on going in and purchasing his work. It is very kind of you to help him in this manner.
Our prayers go out to Guy….
Wow, I’m at a loss for words (unsual for me). I am going to purchase right now. Thanks

The angel on your shoulder is smiling and so am I.

Visited Guy’s work in progress blog, I will definitely be following his progress. I have a friend who I worked with who has gone through throat cancer, that was several years ago, he is now enjoying a well earned retirement. I picked up the zip file and the contents are just amazing, thank you very much
My prayers go out to Guy and his family, including his CMS family.
I have purchased the download and am hoping that every little bit will help.
Thanks!

God bless you Guy…my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Thank you for sharing – what wonderful talent. Will be checking out offer. Please let Guy know thoughts and prayers are with him in his battle.
I happened to stumble across this site and read today’s post and my heart went out to Guy and you all. Cancer has affected my life in so many ways – anything I can do to help, I try to do. I’ll go purchase this file now, and hope that it helps a little. Most importantly, though, I will be keeping Guy in my thoughts and prayers.

Peace & Hugs, Jenn Borjeson
Thank you so much for the freebie, with hugs Shirleyxxxxx
Thank you so much for the freebie. I have gone and bought the set, and will be posting about this on my blog with a link to this post and a link to the store. We’re praying for you, Guy…
I just lost my Dad to cancer…Cancer SUCKS…Guy I wish you the best, I’ll pray for Gods hand on you and your family. Beautiful Dorthy image. Thank you for that. If I could I would go get that zip file right now.
I was wondering if there’s a way we can view Guy’s work to see if we could use his work before we purchase it.?
Sure you can. If you look at the digital stamp section of shop.copicmarkerscrapbooking.com You will see mock ups of each stamp set Guy has drawn. The only set that Guy did not draw was “Charming and Whimsical”.
Thank you everyone. Not enough words in the dictionary to thank you all. You rock.
Guy,
I read your story and want you to know that you are now in my “special” daily prayers! You will get through this with a little help from all of your friends (us) and with God. I’m sending a big hug to you. I’m off to buy your digi’s and are sure they’re wonderful. Thinking of you……….
I made the donation for the zip file, but have not received it. I did receive a thank you
message, but that’s all. Could you tell me how I can get the zip file of all Guy’s digi’s?
Thanks
Hi Carol, I’m sorry that you’re having a hard time with the file. We had over 50 downloads in the past few days that have gone smoothly, and for some reason, this morning we have had several that have not. I will speak to Christian and have him look into it further. Don’t worry about downloads expiring, if we have to we will reissue you the link.
I just purchased the zip file with all the images, WOW!! that’s alot of images. Thank you so much.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, Guy, may God Bless You as you take this journey. Keep the faith and fight!!!!!
Colleen,
I would like to copy this post to my blog and face book page with your permission of course, to help spread the word for Guy. You know how us girls like to yak!
Thanks, I think this is wonderful what you’re doing for Guy.

Thank you so much for sharing this stunning image! Prayers and thoughts for Guy and his family during this time!
Thank you again. I will never look at the craft section the same way again hahaha. Kidding. I’m not even bitter that the scrapbooking section is three times the size of the paint, brush and canvas sections at Michael’s
Seriously, thank you all. Feel free to add me to your Facebook if you want. It’s under my real name.
