Today's 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" card was made using the ribbon from the Autumn Celebrations cartridge. Both Melanie and I chose this ribbon image from the Autumn Celebrations cartridge to make our breast cancer cards, but there are other ribbon images available on the Stand and Salute, Designer's Calendar and Pink Journey Cricut cartridges.
I cut this ribbon image at 3-1/2", so it would be the focal point of the card. There are many layers to this image that give it a lot of pizzazz. I used the MAMBI Fight Like a Girl, Pink Breast Cancer paper stack to make the card itself. The strips of paper are cut at 1-3/4" each. The top scalloped sections were cut with a die (see
HERE) using the Cuttlebug and then layered on top of one another.
Don't forget that the ribbon image is used for many different cancers and other causes. So, this could be a card for someone fighting a different type of cancer or even for a military woman who needs some love and encouragement - just change up the papers.
We have a SECOND Race for a Cure stamp set by My Creative Time to give away!

Love it! The sentiment goes perfectly with BC awareness and is so true, my Aunt has been battling BC and she always says that the secret is for one to have HOPE and hold on to Faith.

What a beautiful card. I wanted to thank you for recognizing that there are other cancers out there besides breast cancer. As someone who just two weeks ago and her 6th surgery for re-occurring thyroid cancer I appreciate it. Sometimes it feels like the only cancer out there worth fight is breast cancer and while it is definitely important we shouldn't forget the others.
I love the simplicity of the card without it looking plain.
Another wonderful card. These cards touch me a lot. I am a 4 year survivor so this awareness is so important to me. Thanks for your reminder in the form of cards.
This card is so bright and cheery! Love the colors...fit perfectly with the message. :) TFS!
Very nice!!
I like the combination of various prints. I love the vibrant pink!
This a beautiful card. Thanks for pointing out that you could easily change the colors and use it for many other causes. I loved that green accent! Thanks for sharing your great ideas!
This card is BEAUTIFUL. That ribbon cut is absolutely gorgeous. I love it! Amazing job as always! Hugs- Glora
Beautiful card for a good cause...
