Tuesday Morning Sketches 135

Happy Tuesday! Welcome to another edition of Tuesday Morning Sketches! Our sponsor today is Digi Doodle Shop. It is a fun sketch and it gave me a chance to use some of those little scraps lying around my stamping table.

For my card, I used the MFT Pure Innocence stamp set called "Give Hope." My card is for a special friend who beat cancer twice. She beat breast cancer over ten years ago and beat ovarian cancer this past year. The ribbon the girl is holding is half pink (breast cancer), half teal (ovarian cancer). We celebrated her success with a surprise party this past Sunday. The inside of the card says, "Cancer cannot steal eternal life, kill a friendship, corrode faith, shatter hope, cripple love."

The design paper is from My Mind's Eye, as well as all of the scraps used for the layers. Like I said above this sketch was great for using my little scraps. I thought this celebration called for a little bling too! The flowers are cut from felt with Die-namics dies and accented with more bling.

Have a great week! Be sure to check in on the other TMS girls to see more awesomeness!
