Shannon Heupel (aka Artfully Delicious) isn't a member of Cookie Connection (yet!), but we hope she will be soon. We're pretty darn proud of her in any event!
Read about how she rallied a bunch of cookiers to raise money (over $6000) via a cookie auction for Oklahoma tornado victims.
You can see how Shannon's personal cookie auction played out here.

UPDATE: Now the grand total is over $12,000! (And Shannon is now a Cookie Connection member!) Way to go to all who contributed!
Thanks Julia! I am just waiting to hear back but I am hopeful we hit the $15,000 mark. My original goal was $5,000. I am so grateful on how successful this was. Thank you to all who participated. 
Wow, Shannon! Truly amazing. Kudos to you!
WTG, Shannon, that is awesome
Great job Shannon!!! What a incredible achievement. So proud of you
Had to share the gorgeous cookies that I received for bidding on this fantastic auction. These cookies are by the very talented Debbie Weidler of Sweet Creations by Debbie. They were as fabulous looking in person as they were online. Note the use of past tense ("were"): they were supremely tasty too - I had four for dinner last night!
Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed them, Julia. And that they arrived without any breakage.
Fantastic job, Shannon! And Julia, really jealous of you and those cookies!!! They are beautiful Debbie!
Gorgeous and lucky you! I just shipped out my first of 3 sets yesterday. It was so fun to be a part of (thanks for asking me Shannon!) and happy to have been able to help out OK in some little way!
So impressive. It is wonderful to see what happens when people come together for a good cause.
I thought it a marvelous way to promote cookie creativity while helping people in need.
Julia, love that you admit you actually eat cookies too. It's a terrible job occupation when one is overweight and bakes cookies!
Great job bakers.
Oh my goodness everyone! You all did such an amazing job! I can't believe I totally missed out on this...gotta get out from under my rock and go check out what you fabulous gals are doing! Congrats on getting 1000.- for cookies Shannon! I always knew they were worth the price...DaVinci of cookies you are!

Oh yeah, I eat cookies all right!
What a great idea for raising money and the cookies were phenomenal . What a great group to be part of.
Oooh! And here's the lovely set of flowers that I just got from the talented Cookie Bliss. I bid on her cookies too - and obviously hit the jackpot!
Laurie, the cookie packaging was just right. All of the cookies arrived looking picture-perfect. So sorry my photo does not do them justice. Too dark when I shot it.
