Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so my (former) Angel friends and I are having a blog hop! This first card is one to send to a friend who is undergoing treatment. It lets her know I'm thinking about her, and that with God all things are possible!

The set is a very old TAC set that came out after 9-11. Unfortunately I didn't record the name, and I can't remember for sure. I'm thinking it's called "Awareness Ribbon." For this card, I made a window in the darkest pink piece and adhered the smaller white piece onto the card base in the middle of the window. This gave me a nice little place to tie a pink ribbon!





The card below is just a note card that could be sent to anyone. If I choose to send it to a survivor, though I can because I stamped "Be Strengthened, Be Encouraged, Be Comforted" very faintly in the lower right corner by stamping off. I CASEd it from this card by the designer of Beautiful Lace, the TAC set the the doily comes from.


No, that's not real stitching--it's a stamp. And...since I didn't have lace I used a lacey-looking punch on vellum to give a similar effect.
