THINK PINK Challenge

 
October is the month where women everywhere show their love and support for one another and come together to try and  raise breast cancer awareness and take care of their personal health.
 
 
 
 
 Flourishes are encouraging us to  THINK PINK!  this week  and I have made  a card to join in - although my card does not look that pink in this photo - it is in real life and that is what counts!
 
 
 
 
I have used the Flourishes Butterflies & Blossoms stamp set, stamping it onto a Spellbinders Labels Eight Nestabilities, using the Die as a Stencil before the card is removed.
 
 
 
 
The sentiment is from JustRite and the gorgeous bling is JustRite® Stampers
 
 
 

The Pretty pink paper is from My Mind's Eye™. My Die has been cut using the Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine.

 
This card is for the following challenges:
Charisma Cardz - Bling
Sassy Studio Designs - Think pink
Crafts and Me - Sentiment
Simon Says Stamp - Glimmer/sparkle
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes + optional Celebrate
The Stamping Boutique - Pink Pink Pink!
Through The Craft Room Door - Alway's Anything Goes!
Crafty Bloggers Network - Anything Goes

 
There are a number of other ways you can join in the support that is happening
 
JOIN COPIC OZ! If you make a pink creation and use Copic Markers, you can also join the gals over on the Copic Oz blog as they raise funds for the McGrath Foundation to support those affected by Breast Cancer. For EVERY card entered, $5 will be given to the McGrath Foundation thanks to X-Press Graph-X, our Australian distributor for Flourishes. You have until Monday October 29th (AU EST). And, the winner will be announced on Tuesday October 30th! The winner will receive Flourishes’ Think Pink stamp set along with some other goodies! Click HERE to learn more!

JOIN SCS! This month, Flourishes is joining dozens of stamp manufacturers and card making retailers along with Splitcoaststampers for the Hope You Can Cling to month for breast cancer awareness. Each day this month, there are challenges with some fabulous prizes on the line — including a $100 gift certificate courtesy of Flourishes! But, the most important piece of this month is the donation of cards to the MD Anderson Cancer Center. These cards can be sent with encouraging words or can be sent blank, so that families have a way to write notes to their loved ones in care.
