Think Pink! and 100th post!

Monday, October 20, 2008


I just noticed as I signed into my blog that this is my 100th post! That is certainly a milestone so of course there will be candy! More on that in a sec! You should know by now that October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. I don't know anyone who doesn't know at least ONE person affected by this horrible disease. We all have someone, family or friend. So this week over at SCS they are going PINK! All the challenges this week will have a pink feel to them. I hope I can join in on some! But to kick off PINK week and in honor of BCAM here is a little pink card of my own!


This is a wedding card I made for my cousin who got married last weekend. I couldn't go due to CKC. But I wanted to at least send a card with a little somethin inside! I stamped the big heart from Always twice on white and black in versamark and then embossed them using CTMH's silver pearl EP - it is so pretty - not a real strong silver. I cut them out, cutting the white layer down more and then layered them added some sheer ribbon and bling and that's about it!

Tools:
CS: Black, White, Pretty in Pink
Ink: Versamark
Other: CTMH Silver Pearl EP, Sheer Wedding Ribbon from HL, Adhesive Rhinestones

Oh and the candy! Leave me a post that has something to do with the word pink or your story about someone with BC and I will let Kaden draw one out to win a small little pink goodie box!

    What a pretty card. I love the pink.

    Hmmm...a pink story. Two years ago my daughter decided that she was going to be The Pink Princess for Halloween. Not just a princess, The Pink Princess.

    This month is especially meaningful to me because my Sister and my best friend both had BC scares this month. Thank goodness follow up showed that everything is fine but for a while we were all upset.

    Very pretty wedding card!! Welcome to the group. I am also in your Stampin Up club!

    My best friend from high school's mom battled breast cancer twice. The third time she lost her battle. I always think about her around this time every year and how brave she was all through it.

    Congrats on 100! That heart is in one of my favorite sets and is on my wishlist!!!

    Pink story -my grandmother. She beat it thankfully, but it was so scary. I will have to get scans before the regular age just to be safe.

Who is the Krafty Mama?


Hi I'm the Krafty one! :) I'm the Queen to 2 little knights and a sweet princess. I married my knight in shining armor (kevlar) over 8 years ago and I am a REAL mom, wife and substitute teacher trying to be the best I can be! I love "krafting" but tend to buy more supplies than I actually use. I love make up, nail polish, hair products and fashion but have been known to leave the house in sweats a messy bun and no make up! I love to cook and bake but am guilty of feeding my kids McDonalds in a pinch. I love direct sales and have joined too many to mention! I would love to get to know you!
