The Pink Ribbon

A very wonderful lady that is really important to my kids has just learned that she has breast cancer, and will begin next week with surgery and treatment.  Your heart just sinks when you hear that.  And yet, we know personally that cancer can be beaten - so I wanted to make her a card to encourage her and tell her that we're supporting her and to fight hard!

I also wanted to jump in and play in the 2Sketches4You sketch this week for some good direction as I created this card. 

I wanted it to be super-pink!  So I took out this wonderful set from Flourishes Think Pink - Fight Like a Girl.  I stamped the HOPE sentiment inside the t-shirt and colored with copics (Fushia Collection).  I added the breast cancer ribbon behind the t-shirt, and then stamped several of the sentiments in the set like Fight Like a Girl, I will Survive.  I think this is such an encouraging stamp set, and I really hope it encourages her. 

Thanks for many of your kind words hoping I had a restful day Friday.  I did!  I did some creating and then took a 2 hour nap which was awesome, it's amazing what some sleep can do.    Thanks for stopping by!
