Fight for a Cure...Think Pink

Hello Diva Fans,

Today I am sharing the new challenge at Die Cuttin' Divas. I hope you will join us this week since this is an important and meaningful challenge.

This Week's Challenge...

Think Pink

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, which is an annual campaign to increase awareness of the disease. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States (other than skin cancer). But millions of women are surviving the disease thanks in part to early detection and improvements in treatment.

Here is my Design Team project...

A dark pink tumbler (from the Dollar Tree) personalized with a light pink ribbon. I cut the vinyl on my Cricut at 4''. I peeled the negative around the shape of the ribbon, and then used transfer tape to apply the vinyl to the center of the cup.

The tag was cut from Plantin Schoolbook at 3 1/2". The ribbon was cut from the Pink Journey Cricut cartridge at 2 3/4". The stamped sentiment is from the Jaded Blossom stamp set ~ Fight for a Cure.

The Hershey Kisses (wrapped in pink foil) have two different sentiments on the bottom, which is part of Fight for a Cure stamp set. I alternated between white and kraft paper with Hope and Faith.  

Other Challenges:
Allsorts ~ Let's Make It Pink
In the Pink ~ Ribbon and/or Bows
Craft Your Passion ~ Always Anything Goes

Hope you will join us at Die Cuttin' Divas this week for our "Think Pink" challenge.

Enjoy your day!

Stay Creative,

Paper Cutz Challenge #61: 3 Patterned Papers

My husband bought my daughter a Pink Cricut machine for making straight A's and the Pink Journey cartridge came with it. I used that cartridge to make this card.

The base card is white cardstock. The 3 pink patterned papers are from Nana's Nursery by DCWV. The scalloped frame is attached with foam dots as is the pink ribbon in the lower right corner. A piece of pink and white striped ribbon overlaps the two pattern pieces of paper. Hope was cut at 1 1/2" and the large ribbon and frame were cut at 2".

Hoping you are enjoying the challenge cards.

Be sure to come back tomorrow for the Terrific Guest Crafter.
