A sympathy card all in pink....

I needed to make a few more sympathy cards for a customer so I whipped up a "breast cancer themed" sympathy card all in pink with a special pink ribbon in the background.  This card will be donated to the Bastyr Integrative Oncology Research Center (B.I.O.R.C.) where my husband goes for treatments.  The incredible staff at this research and treatment center sends out many cards and they asked if I could make them some.  Here are some pics of this card:

Thanks for taking a look!  By the way the post before this one has my first ever attempt at a youtube video linked.  It shows my new die-cutting station.  I had fun trying a new form of media tonight and learning how to upload it to youtube and to this little blog of mine.  Thanks for looking!

 Make each day count!

Papertrey Ink's Make it Monday #16 - Sympathy Cards

This weeks Make it Monday challenge at Papertrey Ink is all about sympathy cards.  Here is a very simple sympathy card that I made this weekend at the request of a dear friend named Jackie at Bastyr University where my husband receives his immuno-therapy drips each week.  It is for a donor who passed away recently and helped start this research center in Kenmore, Wa. after losing his wife to breast cancer.   

Most of the products used are Papertrey Ink products including the sentiment from "Sending You" and the Fillable Frames #4 die and stamp for the focal piece that the sentiment is stamped on.  I also used the largest nestabilities Label 7 die in aqua mist cardstock.

The rose is made from PTI felt and the butterfly punch is from Martha Stewart.

Here is a close-up shot.  Thanks for taking a look!  Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend!
