Fight. Like A Girl

Hello!

This card will be entered into the Challenges at Cheery Lynn, Add A Flourish, Simon Says Monday, Inspired By A Song, and Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes!

 
I used the Flourishes stamp set, Think Pink, although this is anything but pink.  One of my best gal pal's younger sister has been diagnosed with Melanoma and has started treatment.  Melanoma's cancer awareness color is black, so I decided to make a black and white card and send it off to her.  Several die cuts used, Cheery Lynn; Fanciful Flourish, Paper Smooches; Foliage 1, MFT; Cross Stitched Rectangles and Spellbinder's Classic Ovals.  A little Martha Stewart Black Glitter on the Awareness Ribbon, Sequins and Gingham Ribbon for accents.

 
The song that inspired this card is by Pink, So What.....you know that catchy little tune where Pink wants to start a fight......I pray that MaryAnn will fight this with all of her might.  If you're inclined to do so, please say a prayer.  Thank You!
 
Be Well!
 
Enjoy~~

  3. I love this card and the idea that you could make one to send it MaryAnn to encourage her to fight. You captured the toughness and still made it look feminine. I will certainly add her to my prayer list. Unfortunately, it is getting longer.
