Hope

So, unless you live under a rock, you are probably aware of the fact that this month is Breast Cancer Awareness month. On SCS, they are dedicated this weeks challenges to the cause, so it is Pink Week on SCS. All of the weekly challenges have a pink theme(optional of course), and if you choose, which I totally do, you can send your creations into the chosen organization, which is Chemo Angels. Since I am terrible about explaining things, here is the link to the front page story at SCS, and it will link you on further to the details. Today's Ways To Use It challenge was to focus on just one word on your card. You were allowed to include a main image too, as long as there was only one word on the card. I chose Hope(from my NEW Hampton Arts sentiment set Lee sent me), because honestly, it says it all. My image is from Stamping Bella, and is called Causabella. I stamped Bella twice; once on Whisper White and once on my Bella Rose DSP. I paper pieced the dress and then colored the rest with my SU markers, re inkers, and a blender pen. The colors on this card are Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red. I did a lot of piercing and added a ton of silver brads. The panel under the image is some more Bella Rose DSP and it has a piece of the new Pink Pirouette ribbon from SU as well as a piece of red taffeta. I used one of the ribbon slides from the Stylized Silver Hardware as well as a square frame. My sentiment panel was created using my Scallop Square Punch, a 1 in square piece of Pink Pirouette, and my white Hope panel that was punched out with my Large Oval Punch. By the way, my sketch is from Julee Tilman's Mojo Monday Sketch from this week. Hopefully, my nephew will stay asleep long enough for me to work on the MFT sketch challenge, it is awesome!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
