I have an exciting card to show today!! It's for a few challenges, so lets just get straight to it since I have a busy week ahead of me!!
It's time for a new Stamp and Create Monthly challenge. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our challenge is: Pink for Breast Cancer or a card of encouragement!
So you can either use Pink on your card, or just make a "thinking of you" type of card.
The prize a $25.00 gift certificate!
My neighbor is battling Breast Cancer...and she seems to be winning (which is a great thing). But it is still a LONG road. So far she had chemo with a trial drug, a double mastectomy, and Wednesday is her last day of radiation. Since she tested positive for the BRAC gene, she is having a full hysterectomy in November (to prevent Ovarian Cancer), followed by reconstructive surgery. She is so exhausted, but she's only half way done with two more surgeries to go!
So if anyone would like to make a card for her, I know she would appreciate it. Her name is Barbara. Email me at LaceySolIving@bellsouth.net and I will give you my address (I will hold on to them and give them to her).
It's also time for a new Magical Monday Challenge as well.
The challenge for the next two weeks is: Back to Nature!
This is basically any "Magical" image that features something in nature: birds, trees, flowers, etc...
Just remember that it must be a "Magical Creature" to qualify for the sponsor's prize.
We are sponsored by Wild Orchids Crafts!! Check out this prize...
Lastly, the Product Spotlight at Stamp and Create this week is: Fairies and Angels!
All fairies and angels are on sale for 25% off!! This will exclude the new Wags 'n Whiskers release on friday.
And speaking of Wags 'n Whiskers, this card is actually an early Sneak Peek of our new release!!!
This is Iris! Isn't she gorgeous?!
I knew this image would be perfect for both the Pink for Breast Cancer and Back to Nature challenges.
The paper is Basic Grey Porcelain. The sketch is from Sketch Saturday.
I also added some Basic Grey pearls, Prima Lilyput and fairytale roses, pink ribbon, lace, and Basic Grey button.
The computer was generated on the computer.
Iris was embossed in black and watercolored with Twinkling H2Os...
So now it's your turn...
Stamp and Create challenge: Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness or Encouraging card and

We hope you can play along with our challenges!!
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
