Here it is...
Hi,
Lyann.
My name is Mary Beth Gibson, and I am the Executive Director of
a non-profit organization in the U.S. that supports young women with breast cancer.
You can visit our website at www.beyondboobs.org to learn more, if you want.
Anyway,
we are in the process of creating our sixth calendar of young breast
cancer survivors, and the theme this year is an artistic one.
Our
graphic designer loves the palette you designed for your blog and really
wants to use it in our calendar. We print 10,000 copies of the
calendar, and it is fundraiser for us.
We would be very honored if you granted us permission to use the palette.
We would be very honored if you granted us permission to use the palette.
I should let you know that
despite what the name of our organization may suggest, our
calendar is very tasteful. There is no nudity or suggested nudity.
I eagerly await your response. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for considering our request.

P.S. I visited Nova Scotia the year prior to my breast cancer diagnosis. I LOVED IT!!!!
Well, I felt extremely honored...I was like, WOW!
Naturally, I called my husband at work to tell him.
He said, "Wow! You should email her back and say YES right away!"
I started to laugh, and said, "I already did!"
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a commercial artist...and this request, not only is it a great cause...it's awesome that they saw MY GRAPHIC and thought it was good enough to use in the Calendar to Live By.
