Link Up for Pink Challenge Number 3

Hi Everyone!!

Yolie and her design team are hosting a Link Up for Pink challenge for Breast Cancer Awareness. You can find out more info on her BLOG!

Here is my submission ---- a very simple card that speaks volumes. So many women are affected by this terrible disease. We all need to find the courage and strength to fight the disease and we need the love of our family and friends to keep us going. The stamped words come from My Pink Stamper - Hope and Courage.


The paper comes from Close to My Heart and the "flags" were cut using the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge also from CTMH. The flower is from Prima. 



Remember to do your monthly self breast exam and get your yearly mammogram!
