Hello everyone, You must have come here from Diane's blog.
It is the 17th of the month, and I am once again part of the blog hop for the Breast cancer awareness, and reminder hop.

Each blog stop on the hop will feature something from

Calling All Sistahs collection

the special collection Michele created shortly after she was diagnosed last year.

50% of the profits from this collection are donated to

breast cancer awareness programs at

There will be a $15 Gift Certificate given to 3 people that comment along the hop.
Comments close on July 19th @ 12am EST.
As I told you last time, every hop I will share about one person I have come across, who is dealing/dealt with cancer.
Well, the second person, I came to know about was my sister-in-law's mother. This was back in 2005, she was in here early 50's, and she went through chemo therapy. I think it took about 2 years to beat it, but she did it, with the help of her family. She is healthy and doing great, and enjoying her time with her grand-kids.

For my card, I again chose the Hope ribbon stamp. I started with drawing some streaks using a zig marker on a water color paper, and used the water brush to blend and create the background. Then I used Pickled raspberry DI to stamp the ribbon. I decided to do some sewing, so added stitches using a shaded pink thread. Rounded the corners of the panel, and framed it with a black card stock, and used foam adhesive to add to the base, the reminder sentiment is from Kaisercraft. I also added a vellum border, sent to me by a bloggy friend - Cara :) .
