Hi everyone, here's my Pink Week card for Breast Cancer Awareness for Live and Love Crafts. This is something I do feel very strongly about, my Mam was diagnosed with Breast Cancer after a routine mammogram about 12 years ago, I myself have also had a scare, the 10 days or so before I got the all clear were horrendous.
As soon as I saw the theme this week, there was only one image I even considered using Krista's Boobie Love, this is a free download. I've coloured her in with my distress markers. I've added bits of sparkle with Glamour Dust.
The papers on the front are Small Leaves from Pion's Studio of Memories collection, the edges have been distressed with Walnut Stain. I've used Bubblegum Tulle Pleat Trim around the image, and shabby seam binding, the charm is from my stash. The inside is another Maja design paper, I've used a Tim Holtz on the edge die.
I've put Cream Melissa Frances Pearls in the corners. The flowers are Pink Magnolia Shabby Chic Dahlia Tinsel, Pink Poppies, Cream Rolled Roses and Cream Chrysanthemums. I've used tiny attached staples and a paper clip, I work in a lab so I don't have office supplies to hand for inspiration, lol.
I'm entering this into the '2nd Annual Link Up For Pink' challenge at Link Up For Pink, this is a Breast Cancer Awareness blog that I've just discovered on Facebook.
I'm also entering this into the 'Office Supplies' challenge at Saturated Canary Challenge Blog, there's a paper clip and some staples, as I said in my post I work in the Path Lab of our local hospital and we don't have many office supplies, now my desk at home is overflowing with crafty stuff so...... ;)
Hugs,
