...IT'S THE JOURNEY

Hey there, Breast Cancer Awareness month is winding down and so is the Hope You Can Cling To card drive through Splitcoast Stampers.  Eva's challenge, Words of Encouragement, is about powerful words showing love and caring during someone's time of need.  She wants us to create a card with a focal point of a word, quote or sentiment of encouragement.  I'm also going to play along in the Going Pink challenge through Our Craft Lounge.  Your project should have a pink theme and although you don't have to use OCL stamps, you get extra points if you do.

I've been participating in the HYCCT card drive since the beginning of the month and I've had OCL's The Journey sitting on my desk all month waiting for the perfect opportunity to ink it up...this is it, and I'm so glad I was able to use it!  This is a super-duper easy card, but it packs a strong message! 

Three Nestability die cuts were used.  While the sentiment was still in the die, it was sponged with pink ink.  The seam binding was dyed with the same ink and dried with a heat tool.  Three rhinestones complete the card.  I guess that's about it for this one...I can't believe I'm almost caught up with all the HYCCT challenges!

This project includes the following challenges:

Card Makin' Mamas ~ Cut it Out
Clean & Simple Sunday Challenge ~ Think Pink
Lollipop Crafts ~ Embellish It!
Paper Cupcakes ~ Color Challenge
