It's the 17th of the month and time for the Calling All Sistahs reminder to check your girls. I have quite a few friends fighting this horrible disease at the present time, so please get your mammograms so you are not added to the count.
As I have said before I lost my mom to breast cancer at a young age and I am a survivor myself so cancer hits home with me and I do not want any more of my friends to have to fight this horrible disease.
Cancer can be beaten if caught early so please do self exams and get your mammograms once a year if thats what the doctor suggests. You can also help find a cure by purchasing products from the Calling All Sistahs line where 50% of the profits go towards breast cancer research.
Now for my reminder card.
I used the Word Ribbon and the Ruffled Ribbon Fri-die on my card. I started with a white top folding card base and a piece of gold stripe design paper. I added a little pink to the sides of the striped paper, gotta have pink somewhere right? Next I stamped the Word Ribbon in Versamark ink and embossed it with Guilded embossing powder from Brutus Monroe and then sponged some pink around the edges.
Stop back by tomorrow for our Encouragement challenge. We would love for you to play along and send out an encouragement card to someone who needs it.
Sorry you have friends fighting this horrible battle. Thank you for being a part of the Encouragement Squad and reminding your peeps to check themselves.
ReplyDeletep.s. Love the touches of pink you've added to your card. I hadn't thought to do that with foiled paper before. You've got my wheels turning.
