Pink, and a happy heart

This week's challenge over at The Hero Arts Club Blog is to create PINK cards of encouragement for Gilda's Club... a wonderful organization dedicated to the emotional and social support of those living with cancer and their families. Of course it was a no-brainer that I'd participate, because in case you can't tell, I love PINK! ;) LOL
Even more, I love the cause. :)


Here's my first submission (click to see larger). I really hope to send in as many cards as I can! I apologize that the photo is dark... we're quite overcast today. Anyway, the card is your basic layout - simple, tried and true, adaptable for any occasion. :) The main flower image is an older Hero Arts stamp, but one of my faves. I colored it with my SU markers and if it looks a little sloppy, then great! It was my intention to get that splotchy, almost watercolored look. A little ribbon (yay - back to the ribbon LOL) and some bling, and it's ready to go. I hope it makes the recipient smile. :)

Thanks for stopping by today, and if you get a chance, check out the
Hero Arts Club Blog and join in! It's such a worthwhile cause, and who deosn't love PINK?! ;) Have a wonderful weekend. :)
