Pink Survivor card

My mother and sister are both breast cancer survivors so it's only fitting that I get busy recognizing October and breast cancer awareness.   My sister battled all last year and came out with her fists in the air,  Rocky style.   *grin
And....I've been encouraged to enter this into the 3rd Annual Link up for Pink contest over at Link up for Pink.

So with that in mind,  I've made this survivor card, using a sentiment from the Unity Stamp Co.

I made the pennants out of pink sorbet twine from The Twinery and Mambi sheets from Me and My Big Ideas.  The pink hearts and survivor tag were cut from the same paper pack which was all about breast cancer awareness.  The dark pink heart came from the DCWV paper pad Blossoms and Butterflies.  The finishing touches were some stickles glitter glue to highlight the hearts, and the sentiment was stamped with American Crafts Taffy Pigment ink, my absolute favorite brand of ink.


Thanks for stopping by and God bless the women fighting this disease!
