"Katie for a Cure is a very special set I designed to honor my cousin Kate, who earlier this year, at age 33, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Kate is the picture of health and vitality, and her spirit is magical. She has two very young children, and is in the prime of her life – which makes her diagnosis all the more distressing. As only Katie can, she is fighting this disease with the strength and grace of a pure champion. Her story is sadly not unique, but this is my Katie, and I had to do something. It is tragic, but I am sure that my family is not the only one to have this disease repeatedly rearing its head at us. It is my hope that together we will raise a donation that we can all be proud of. And if nothing else, Kate will get a smile from all the beautiful cards that you share with us. Thank you all in advance for your donations and your creations!"
The challenge this time around for the Fussy and Fancy girls was to use Pink and Black. So without further ado, here is my card using Katie for a Cure!
I made a tent card for this challenge and hung my cute little Katie in the window. I used pink cardstock and some pink and black camo paper I had in my stash.
I added a pink ribbon and bow held with a cute pearl brad as well as some cute rhinestone flowers by Petaloo.
I also used some pink bling around the Cancer Sucks sentiment.
Make sure to check out what the other girls did with this challenge and be sure you head over to Fussy and Fancy to play along with this challenge of Pink and Black. Stamp Insanity is donating 1 digi set to the winner (winner chooses the set). What a great prize! Be sure to check out the Groovy Gurlz samples also.
