Breast Cancer Awareness

I'm back!  Whew the Fall is the most hectic time of the year for me between soccer, football, holidays and birthdays it's just well...crazy!  Well I'm here today with a project for our challenge at 613 Avenue Create.   The theme is always Anything Goes but this week the optional theme is CAS (clean and simple).  One of our sponsors is The Stamping Boutique  and the winner receives 4 digital images.  I've used the Ribbon and Rose image, and yes I realize this isn't the best CAS design, guess I got a little carried away  :)

That's it for now I'll be back with another post with my Melonheadz project!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hugs,

Think Pink

Hi again...busy week!  Here's a card I made for another friend who lost her mother to breast cancer when she was just 52.  Much too young...so this is a special month for us.  I used the Meljen's Designs  Tic Tac Toe Challenge and the Link Up For Pink 2nd Anniversary Linking Party for inspiration.

 

 I used Buttons, Bling & Twine.  Bra digi from Meljen's colored with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol shadow with blue chalks.  Floral Doily and banners dies by Spellbinders.  Sentiment by MFT, paper by Lilybee Design, Jolee's crystal attached with glossy accents and Stickles on the heart and swirls.

Thanks for stopping in and remember to schedule those mammograms!!  Honestly, I had been putting my first one off for a few years until I found out my cousin was diagnosed then I ran to have it done!  And it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be!  Barely hurt...granted she had plenty to work with   :)  Even still they called me back for a second one and then did an ultrasound of both and they said everything was ok.   So be brave and have the "girls" checked! 

Hugs!!

Pink or Breast Cancer Awareness Challenge at JDE!

Hi all!!
This week at Jacksons Digital Expressions our challenge is to create a project using the color pink or a project supporting Breast Cancer Awareness (pink, ribbon, sentiments, etc).  And members of the DT and supporters have decided to donate .25 per entry to go to BC treatment.  So far we are up to $1.25 per entry!  We are not asking for donations we are simply asking to create an item and enter in the challenge at JDE this week.  Please feel free to advertise this on your own blogs because the more entries = more $ donated!

So onto my projects for the week.  First is a card I created using the Awareness Walk digi and I cropped just one girl from the group.

I stippled the cloud background and used an oval Spellbinder for the image which I cut the outline of the girls back.  Colored with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol.  The stamp is from My Favorite Things - Pure Innocence - Have Hope set.  The dies are from Verve called Charming Ovals.

JDE is sponsored again this week by Bugaboo Stamps.  I used the Ribbon Bear Leaning digi to make a 

5 x 7 photo mat for my cousin who has been dealing with breast cancer herself.  She will be doing the relay for life in October.  I paper pieced the ribbon and the heart on his bum  :)   and I used chalks to color him in.

This week is also Stella Says Sketch #120
