Swap for a Cause

Hi lovely blog girls, friends, and sisters! For my followers...remember this is Breast Cancer Awareness month and if you are in the age group to start getting mammograms make sure you get yours in. If not, then make sure you are doing your personal check every month. When I was making my blog rounds this week I saw on Jeannette's Blog a swap being hosted by Viv on SCS and for each person that signs up and swaps $1 be donated to breast cancer. How could I pass that up? This is the full card and I almost have the other 5 completed. I'll also make two more to send to others in my life.

For this card I used Breast Cancer Hanna from Hanna Stamps. I colored the girls up with copics. The papers are from SU, PTI, Bazzill, and Me&Big Ideas for the hounds tooth. I used a Martha Stewart Hydrangea punch to create the flowers. I also used the weekly Hanna Stamps Challenge HSC89. Thank you stopping by today. Have a wonderful day.
