Happy Thursday to all and it the last hop for October.
As October is Breast Cancer Awareness month I wanted to share a card that I made with the Ribbons of Courage set that was inspired by Patty Bennett.
( Actually I made this card early!!! mixed up my days. )
I paddle on a Dragon Boat team that has many survivors of this disease and many other types of cancer. This cause is very close to my heart and am amazed each day of the courage of these ladies I call friends .
Here is the sketch for today....
And my card for today's hop.....
I stamped off the ribbon image onto the piece of Flirty Flamingo. Then layered the ribbons and the sentiment that says it all!
Pink Pirouette and Melon Mambo added the remaining "pink" colours. Then a few of the Glitter Enamel Dots for some bling.
More ribbons and a few more Dots.....
Thanks for stopping by....here is a picture of my team at one of our festivals this year.
Now off to the rest of the hop...have fun.
Shelagh Freemantle - you are here
Cheers from.....
I'm late hopping this week but had to stop by and say how much I love your card. Near and dear to my heart too.

Very nice. I really like that you used the stamp to make the very subtle ribbons for the background. The colors really complement each other.

What a pretty card Shelagh! The shades of pink are perfect and so is your design. Thanks for sharing the picture of your boat team too! :)
