What happened?29 Australian and international designers have banded together to help support many Australians, animals and communities decimated by one Australia's worse national disasters.
On Saturday, Feb 7, the temperature in Melbourne was 33'c by 9am. By noon it was 40'c and by 2.50 pm soared to 47.9'c (a state record).
Thousands of people were also about to start running from the inferno that would become one of Australia's worst peacetime disasters.
Trees ignited in the blink of an eye. By the time people heard the roar, it was too late to flee ahead of the flames.Unfortunately no one or thing could have stopped this inferno that wiped out communities, bushland, and lives within minutes. Many towns now cease to exist!.
After watching interviews with survivors, many say that they cant put into words what they went through,saw or felt on that day.
Here are just a few pictures(courtesy of google,The age,sbs &abc Aust.) of this horrible disaster

Personally I would like to thank Vicki and Shaz for all the organizing this wonderful collab and to Carolyn for hosting this at her website, collating and doing the previews.
You have done an amazing job ladies. Also to my fellow designers, without your generosity this Charity Kit would never have happened...well done
If you can spare a thought for all those at the moment without a roof over their heads, who have lost EVERYTHING ( and there are a LOT of them), for the wildlife without their normal habitat all destroyed by fire!
= your $5 will go a long way in helping the Charity's above to restore some dignity and hope in those that need it the most.
