Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop!



October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, to raise awareness we are having a blog hop!  I used a Nina B set, Scalloped Circles, stamped with Cloud White VersaMagic ink on Watermelon Sensation Bazzill cardstock.

I used Nestabilities Labels 4 and embossed the white DCWV cardstock with a Tim Holtz texture plate Regal Flourishes.  The mat is Bazzill Guava Sensation.

I made an awareness ribbon with some pink ribbon from my stash and a pearl gem to finish it off.

If you would like to join this hop, it is an open hop, feel free to use stamps from any company.  Just use the link below and the full extention of your blog post to join.  Add the html code to your post and you will have links to all stops on this blog hop.

Hope you enjoy the hop!

Biblical Impressions: Faith Hope

Hello All,

Today I'm featuring a set from Biblical Impressions called Faith Hope.  I love this set!  Ironically, it has taken me 7+ years to use it.  It was one of the last stamps I bought from Biblical before signing up with The Angel Company.  Last week I mounted it and used it!  What a great feeling.

This card was designed for a service project coming up at my church in October.  We will be creating care packages for the 12 missionary families we support around the world.  These cards will be signed by all who create the care packages.
 
I felt this set was perfect to thank them for their commitment and hard work spreading the gospel.  Missionary work is such a labor of Love.  It is a process which starts with planting seeds.  My hope is this card will be an encouragement as they interact with people in all stages of the process.

This is a 4" x 8" card.  The colored images were cut out and distressed using palette inks and a sponge then popped using pop dots.  Faux stitching was added using the ScorPal and ScorBog.  The card was finished with a twine bow.

Supplies -- BI Faith Hope; Cardstock: Copic X-press It, Bazzill Yam, Jacaranda, Saguaro; Pastel Chalks, Palette Burnt Umber and Cognac inks, Memento Tuxedo Black ink, ScorBug, Twine, Copic Markers

Copic colors:
Pot: YR15, YR18, YR24
Foliage: YG93, YG95, YG97
Fruit: B23, V17
Water: B21, B23

Next week, I will be sharing a card using the lighthouse image from the same sheet.

 Hi All,
