Let's Find A Cure - Pink's Not My Color With Mama LoveBug

Breast Cancer Awareness is a very important issue and one close to my heart as I have several friends who are dealing with this.  Bugaboo Digi Stamp (Ruby) has a fresh take on the cause with both a delightful focal point and sentiment.

Mama LoveBug here today, welcoming in the month of September with several awareness triple-embossed  cards to share.  

Both of my cards have the same elements aside from different embossing folders used and different inks - the top is Ranger Distressed Ink and the bottom is Stampin Up Blushing Bride.

I also used 

*Mama LoveBug's private reserve rumple ribbon

*Jaded Blossom Awareness Die

*Stampin Up cardstock and whisper white paper for triple mats

*Gel pen for accenting after using colored pencils for coloring Ruby

Remember no matter how you bunch your blooms, rumple your ribbon, and piece your paper, have fun with it................Cyber Cancer Awareness.........Mama LoveBug

Hi crafty friends!

Stacey from Stacey's Creative Corner

here to show you my project for this week.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness month,

I decided to make a little gift to serve as a little reminder to 

either get checked or do a self exam for one of my friends.

I used some of the very beautiful 

Princess Party Pink Rumple Ribbon 

on my project.

A package of pink tic tacs slides out of my little holder.

Don't forget about the monthly challenge going on over at the

Lovebug Lounge FB group!

You can read more about my project on my blog

I hope you have a fabulous crafty day!

Link up for Pink 2012

 

Good morning everyone!!! Today I want to share with you the card I made for Link up for Pink 2012! I couldn't let Mama have all the fun (if you haven't seen her LUFP post click HERE!)

So I made this card, showed it to my hubby when he got home and the first thing he said is "Can I have this one?" Sure I said..Turns out there is a lady he works with that has been cancer free now for a year and he knew she'd love this! (ps...She did!!!!)

So here it is...

 

For this card I used the "Fight Like a Girl" pattern from Paper Piecings by Nikki. I just love this set! Since I do not own a machine to do my cutting I never end up using the titles Nikki makes..and I thought..what a shame! So I figured out a way to use it to make some pattern paper...and I LOVE the way it turned out! Added some bling to the ribbon (pink of course!) and a computer generated sentiment! Of course this gal has to move so action wobble it is!! I love love love this card. To be honest I think this is probably my favorite thing I've made lately!

 

So there you have it! I hope it inspires you to get Nikki's "Fight Like a Girl" set and make something for Link Up For Pink 2012!!!

 

Bug Hugs,

Kimi

 

 

Paper Piecings by Nikki DT Offering - Fight Like A Girl

Happy Crafting Day to You!  Today I want to talk about a very serious topic - Breast Cancer.  I bet you all know at least one person who has been touched by this and with your crafting talent, you want to bring a bit of sunshine to that person - so here's an idea for you (actually several ideas)!!
Link It Up Pink http://www.linkupforpink.com/

Paper Piecings by Nikki has a wonderful cut file called Fight Like A Girl.  I used that file to make several different projects which I call the Breast Cancer Awareness Pack.  Here's what I made:

1.  Two different Breast Cancer Awareness Brooches, each with the image from PPbN.  These brooches could be worn on a jacket, a shirt, on a purse, etc - use your imagination.  Have a fashionista in your circle of friends who wants to make people aware of this cause??

2.  Two different Breast Cancer Awareness Book Marks, each with the image from PPbN - all glitzzed up with gel pens for added dimension - have a reader in your circle of friends who would appreciate the thought??

3. One Breast Cancer Awareness Lollipop - as you'll see in the picture I have plenty of room to make and send more but I wanted you to get the idea.  I took my favorite sucker, Caramel Apple, and added a bow cut out of a Sizzix die and added the PPbN image, glitzzed up and ready for gifting!  Have someone who wants to Fight Like A Girl against the Big C??

Together Let's Lick Cancer!!
You can find this file and so much more at the PPbN store - http://www.paperpiecingsbynikki.com/

Remember, no matter how you piece your paper, have fun with it........cyberhugs.........Mama LoveBug!
