We are getting ready to wrap up the February Release projects and still have yet another day to share after today.

I have yet another card for you. Over the last 3 days I’ve share a unique card using each of the flowers in the Bold Botanicals set.
As you all know, I have been affected by Cancer through my own daughter who was 6 at the time, and now 11 celcbrating 3 years in remission, and now my mother 54, who is fighting her battle right now.
Cancer has no prejudice. It see no age, no race. It doesn’t discriminate. It can happen to anyone. I truly love this set, as it was put together in honor of my mother, and my daughter.
The Bold Botanicals set was designed for those who need encouragement and are grateful for second chances. I didn’t want “CANCER” to be the main focus, just soft images (and my favorite the butterfly for so many personal reasons to me) and an inspiring sentiment you see on bracelets and Cancer Awareness article everywhere.
People who have cancer don’t want that to be their defining quailty or the main focus of thier life. At least that has been my expireince with it.
Today my card is for a friend who is battling ovarian cancer. Her Cancer color is teal.
Faith Hope Courage Strength
This is a simple design that I can easily duplicate, and that the colors can be changed based on need.
I used a pigment ink in teal for my flowers, and olive for my stem. I added some white details using a singlo gel pen.
The detail along the bottom, is once again Puckered Up Patterns. I love it.
This is the perfect card for mass production, or just because.
Each Cancer is represented by a color. So when making a card or gift set it may be helpful to keep this in mind. It make personalizing the gift that much more meaningful.
