Monthly Self Check every 17th of the Month!



Hello!  Thank you so much for stopping by

 

Today I want to share a very special card for a blog hop I am participating in.  I do not know of one single person who has not been touched by cancer in some way... Cas-ual Fridays has started a monthly blog hop to remind women to do a monthly self breast exam.  You can read the story on how it began here.  I encourage you to take a few moments to read up on how to do a self exam if you do not know how.  It takes moments to do your self exam and could save your life.  Please remind all of the women in your life to do so.

You should have arrived from Casual Fridays Stamps

This month the theme was to have this be a reminder to our friends and family.. Each month that is the purpose of the 17th posting, but the card itself was to be a reminder card.  Unfortunately, I did not have the reminder set so I chose to go with HOPE.. When I mailed my card out I wrote about the reminder inside.

Products used:

 

Cas-ual Fridays Hope Ribbon

Cas-ual Fridays YOU (from a previous Stamp of Approval Box)

Craftin Desert Divas Fancy Frames

So Suzy Ink Bites

Brutus Monroe Alabaster Embossing Powder

 

I first took the Hope Ribbon stamp set and the word HOPE.  On pink card stock I embossed with Brutus Monroe Alabaster powder in rows. I wanted the HOPE to be staggered .. I do have to say I am one of the worst straight line people in the world.. So I did take a ruler and make a cheater line so it would be straight.  After I had all of the hope stamped out and embossed.. I took two tiny hearts from a set called YOU (from a previously released Stamp of Approval set) and stamped in random places using So Suzy Ink Bites in Watermelon and Thistle Thicket.  I then used the largest die in the Craftin Desert Divas Fancy Frames set.

 

For my top layer, I took again the Fancy Frames die and I only wanted a tiny portion for a layer.  I then stamped and embossed hope is stronger than fear .. I added a few more hearts from the YOU stamp set.  I took out my twine (I am trying to use this more) and after wrapping a few times I saw it looked perfect in the grooves from the die.  It worked perfect.  I then added a few flat back pearls and with scor tape I adhered that to my main card .

 

I added some foam tape to the main panel and ran the watermelon ink bite from So Suzy around the outside edge.   My card turned out amazing and I can't wait for this to make someone smile who is going through this terrible disease..
