HOPE


I combined today's LSC191 challenge with yesterday's WT 189 challenge. Today's Limited is to use leaves and pink somewhere on the card. Yesterday's Ways to Use it is focus on ONE word...as well as some pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
I wanted something simple that gets the point across. Hope is my focal word that I stamped using my JustRite Stampers and while there are leaves in the background and a few fronds in the front.....my touch of pink is the dove.

Stamps: JustRite Special Occasions Font 7/8" and Harmony Rectangular Stamper set....small rectangle
Cardstock: The Paper Co. Blonde Columns, Ivory, pink pirouette, kiwi kiss, chocolate chip
Ink: Encore gold, lumiere, adirondack lettuce, pretty in pink
Accessories: MS branch, dove bird, and frond punches, SU small oval punch, sponges, gold cording, sheer creations ivory ribbon, small pearl halves, cuttlebug ef
I always tell my friends that we HAVE to fight breast cancer like WOMEN....with our BARE HANDS!!!! Touch your breast....know your breast!!!! If anything changes from month to month call the doctor. If you are eligible for mammograms get them. If you are reading this and YOU have NOT had your mammogram this year....and YOU are supposed to......go schedule it NOW!!!! Early detection is key.
