2nd Annual Ultimate Pink Blog Hop

Hello everyone!  As you know, October is breast cancer awareness month.  Today I am participating with demonstrators from all over the world to use our love of paper crafting to help raise awareness to breast cancer, and bring some comfort to the people who go through this awful disease.

Here is my card:

My card features the Ribbon of Courage stamp set, that was designed by a demonstrator named Patty Bennett.  I just love this set!  My card has a Powder Pink base.  The bottom Whisper White layer has the greeting, and the ribbon stamped in Melon Mambo.  The, I stamped around both of those things with the small heart stamp, in Powder Pink.  I cut a smaller piece of white, and used the Support Framelits to cut out the ribbon shape.  After that, I embossed the piece with the Garden Trellis embossing folder.  I raised my embossed piece from my card using Foam Adhesive Strips.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Be sure to check out what the rest of the hoppers have to share!

I'm Always Here for You

Hello everyone!

Today, I am sharing a card, and envelope I made for a challenge I found in a local crafting group I belong to.  Kat Scrappiness & Newton's Nook have a card challenge going for encouraging and supportive cards; in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Here is the card I made:

I featured the Flirty Flamingo Envelope Paper on my card, and then used the rest of one sheet to make a matching envelope.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a great weekend!

Ultimate Pink Blog Hop

Welcome to the first ever Ultimate Pink Blog Hop – a collection of ideas from Stampin’ UP! demonstrators all over the globe featuring shades of pink in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

I am so happy to be a part of this blog hop.  I have a simple card, and treat to share with you today.

I love giving little treats with my cards.  I think it just adds a nice extra touch.  I also love how the card and treat together show the great coordination of Stampin' Up! products.  

My tiny little treat box was made with the Envelope Punch Board, that is still on sale for a few more days.   I learned how to make this little box from a YouTube video by Poodles Papercraft.  It is just a 3 1/4" square.  You score and punch at 2" for the first side, and then just line up on the score lines after that.  I put a Hershey Miniature in my little box.  I wrapped my box with Whisper White Baker's Twine to make it look a little more like a tiny package.

I am excited you  are here. To continue to be inspired whether you’ve come from the person previous to me or after me (Nichole Loe) on the list below all participants are listed to help you as you journey among us being filled with pink inspiration.
