Think Pink! October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Good Morning Bloggers!

Last month I did some  fundraising for
 Breakthrough Breast Cancer

I had my head shaved & ran a couple of card making challenges!
As a result of this, I heard stories from many people about how they
or a  loved one had been touched by Breast Cancer!

I was so touched by some of the stories, I felt I wanted to send a card.
This is one of the cards I made!

The image & the sentiment are part of a set from

 Dude Time Doodles

Here's a closer look at

Breast Cancer Awareness Girl Set

I coloured the image with a combination of my 

Promarkers & Flexmarkers

The sentiment is one of several included.

I distressed it a bit, cut it out with a Spellbinders Die 

& threaded some lace through it.

I punched some flowers using my Tonic Punches

 & layered them up adding a gem to the centre of each.

Here's a photo of the inside!

Thanks to everyone's generosity, the

 total for my fundraising so far is an awesome 

£2946.90

If you haven't donated yet & you'd like to help me round up

my figures to a nice tidy sum, you can find out how to 

do just that on my Just Giving Page.

This month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

I urge you to check for any changes at least once a month.

Early detection is the key!

Thanks for stopping by!

I'm off to check out the Pink Challenges I can enter this little card in!

October New Releases at The Crafty Pad

Good Morning all!

I hope you're all well!

It's time for the new October New Release Post at 

The Crafty Pad

The image I chose to work with is the 

Christmas Bauble Set in Gold & Silver

As you can see, I used the gold!

The sentiment & the border are part of the set.

My card is Clean & Simple & will easily go in the post 

with an ordinary letter stamp!

I printed the image onto some card & added some sparkle

with my Sakura, Clear Star pen. 

Then matted onto some Gold Mirri Board.

The card base is an A6 

I wish you could see just how much it sparkles

 but it's so hard to capture with the camera!

Believe me I tried! lol

I hope you like my little offering!

I did decorate the inside with some Mirri Board but I 

was so intent on capturing the sparkle, I forgot to take a photo!

I did consider further embellishments but decided against it!

Pop on over to The Crafty Pad & check out the other
