Love....

Good evening evryone!!

I was looking through my blogs that I usually look at and saw that Three Clovers Designs was have a challenge this week using pink in honor of Breast Cancer month. This is close to my heart since it has struck a few women in my family especially one that I was really close to, my sister who lost her battle with this disease almost 28 years ago. I do whatever I can when it can help the research to the cause. So when making this card I had her in mind, and this blog is dedicated to her. I miss her everyday and don't go without thinking about her and what she endured during her battle so she could see her young sons grow. Needless to say she wasn't able to do that but she sure did give it one heck of a fight trying.

This card is 4.5 X 4.25. The stamp I used was from a past SU! set called Hope Is and was for Breast Cancer. The CS, ribbon and ink are PTI Hibiscus Burst. I went over the word Love with my quick glue pen and used some prisma glitter. I can't remember what size the white is (sorry) and stamped the heart from the set also in PTI Hibiscus Burst. Then I used a two different corner punches then put PTI New Leaf under the leaves from the corner punch and the gemstones in Antique Rose. That name even fits, it is like giving her a rose. I may just keep this card up in my craft room in honor of my sister.

Birdie (her nickname) you may be gone but you are not forgotten and always in my heart. I Love You!!

Thank you for stopping by,
