Hodgkin's Lymphoma Violet Ribbon

As I was making this card I received some wonderful news.....my niece who was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma, announced she was in COMPLETE REMISSION!!!  She never lost her courage or spirit and come the end of November (her last treatment!) she can wrap this chapter of her life in a pretty little bow and close the book!  AMEN!

Here is my card, which will be entered into the Challenge at Simon Says Wednesday, Water Colors, CASology, Splatter and a Stamp TV Challenge, Many Colors (a Stamp Out Cancer Challenge).    

 

I used water color pencils to color the stamped image, from the Strength And Hope set, by Gina K Designs.  Cut the image out using Spellbinders Classic and Scalloped Oval dies.  The background was created by putting craft paint on an old toothbrush and 'splattering' it all over the card stock....one of my most favorite techniques!  The card measures 4.25 x 4.25. 

 

I can't wait til she gets this card.....I don't even care if she burns it!  WHAHOO!!!

 

Thanks so much for joining me in this FANTASTIC news!!!

 

Enjoy~~
