Woohoo! We made it!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
A lot of people did a lot of work to make this happen, and I'll be thanking you individually over the next day or two, but I want to give a special thanks real quick.
That thanks is to Stephanie Nelson. You might also know her as the 'Coupon Mom'.
She put a great post on her facebook page this morning (http://www.facebook.com/couponmom) and it took off like a rocket. We started this day with almost $2,000 to reach our goal, and 3 hours after her post, we crossed the finish line.
I can't say enough about how much this means to me. Please 'like' her on FB, and check out her website: http://www.couponmom.com/ She does a great job finding deals and bargains, and she shares them with you.
Oh, and she gave a great pledge too... Thanks Stephanie!
---------------------------------------
Also while typing this, I see that David Higham put in the $500! So these cutters will be in retail this year! I'll send along more on his store when I have it.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Yay! Woot! When I first starting tweeting and blogging it all those weeks ago I didn't have much hope but a few big names came in and saved the day!
And of course you'll have to come to an Austin cake club meeting or show soon to show the cutters off!
