A Little Pick-me-Up

Happy Friday!! It's Sarah from Pink Cricut and I am SO excited to be guest designing for Monique and Wendy today!

I had the pleasure of meeting these super-sweet ladies at Winter CHA- and they are both so beautiful inside and out! :)

Here we are waiting to go into the Gala (Emma, Monique, Wendy, and me)

Okay-for today's project Monique and Wendy asked me to do a Breast Cancer awareness project- which was perfect timing- since my stamp company, Pink by Design is releasing 2 Breast Cancer Awareness stamp sets next week!

I did a 5x5 inch square card--using the DCWV Blossom Stack and the Forever Young Cricut Cartridge.


I embossed the dark pink layer with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder, and the light pink layer with D'vine Swirls. (I think these are the 2 folders I use the most)

I layered it on top of a white doily I cut from a stock image on the E2.
I used a ton of pop-dots to really make the cricut cut stick out!



I then added some bling and bows - (what girl doesn't like bling and bows?) :)


Here is the inside of the card:

Once you choose Hope anything is possible.


Since this card is going to someone I know- I also wanted to be able to give her something more.
So, I made her a little set of cards to go with her card!

I used kraft cardstock, papertrey ink cardstock and Spellbinders Lacey Squares.

Each of these cards is stamped with the Pink by Design Save the Tatas stamp set, as well as the Breast Wishes stamp set that is coming out next Friday :)

The sentiments read:
Thanks for the Support
Breast of Friends
Hang in There
and Hope

I will tie these little cards with some pink twine and put them in a clear envelope to gift them in.


Thanks again to Wendy and Monique for having me on their blog! I hope you enjoyed my little projects- and feel free to come say hi to me anytime at Pink Cricut! :)

Have a great LONG weekend!

  6. These are TOO CUTE! Love all them. I also loved getting to "meet" Sarah in her photo. I am getting to meet her stamps in person soon since my order from her site is on its way. I won a gift cert during a blog hop recently so I could try out her stamps.
