The Race of Our Lives

We are all in the race of our live to find the cure for cancer.  I do believe this terrible disease had touched everyone in some way.
  My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 72.  It was discovered after her first  mammogram.  She had refused to have one for years.  When she visited her doctor for the last time, (he was retiring) she gave in.  She told him she was having the mammogram only because he was retiring.  Now she tells everyone his retirement saved her life.  She is now an advocate for cancer screening.  My mother is now 84 years old, going strong, and cancer free!!
  This past week a friend at work was diagnosed with breast cancer.  She had surgery Friday and all tests have come back clear!  This card is for her.  The inside of the card says "We are ALL in the race of our lives.

Fall And Its Beautiful Colors

I just love all the warm colors of fall.  And add the bright blue of an autumn sky, nothing is prettier.  Fall is such a special season of color.  It is the most travel season just to look at the foliage.  I just loved making this card with all those beautiful colors.  I used the SPEAKING OF FALL cartridge and the STORYBOOK cartridge for the letters.  The ribbon is from Hobby Lobby.  And the paper is K&Company.

Ribbons Ribbons Ribbons

Yes, Ribbons Ribbons Ribbons is the challenge topic at Stampin Royalty.  I love the look of the ribbon on this autumn card.  I have always been a fan of "color on color".  When I saw this ribbon a few weeks ago at Hobby Lobby, I just knew it would be just so good looking on cards.  It is such a lovely shade of brown.  The width is perfect and the dots are so cute.

I made this card earlier in the week. I found the paper with the leaves on it in the bottom of a stack and just thought I had to use it that night.  There was no plan for the outcome of the card.  I just started "cutting and pasting".  Then I remembered the ribbon, and it all came together as if it was planned.

The green paper was embossed using the paisley folder in the cuttlebug.  The label was cut with the LACEY LABELS cartridge.  I have no idea where I got the leaf paper, but I really like it.  Border was punched with a Martha Stewart border punch.  And to finish it off, little gems were added to the bottom right corner.  AUTUMN GREETINGS!

Fall Leaf Happy Birthday

The card was cut with the A CHILD'S YEAR cartridge.  The blue border was constructed with a Martha Stewart border punch and the leaves were done with an EK border punch.  The ribbon is from the $1.00 bin at Michaels.  The paper is from DCWV.  And my favorite part of the card is the little leaf brad from The Oriental Trading Company.  The card is being entered in the following challenges.
