Hello Bosom Buddies and Blogging Friends!!
It is the 17th of the month and that means that I am here with the CAS-ual Fridays Encouragement Squad to remind you to do your monthly self breast exam and schedule your mammogram if you haven't had one yet this year!! Please stop by the Calling All Sistahs August Reminder post to see what the Encouragement Squad have made this month!!
Be sure to check out all the Calling All Sistahs collection of stamps and dies designed shortly after Michele, the owner of CAS-ual Fridays, was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2015. She designed them with the purpose of donating 50% profits to breast cancer awareness programs and to provide you with awesome stamps to remind and encourage your friends!
Here is my reminder card:
Ingredients:
Pink paper
White wood grain paper
Kraft card stock
Versamark
Victorian Velvet distress ink
Spun Sugar distress ink
Black ink
Pink crinkle ribbon
Swirl embossing folder
Swirl embossing folder
For this 6" by 6" card I started with Kraft card stock for the base of the card. I took a piece of Lemoncraft Yesterday paper, inked the edges with Spun Sugar distress ink and added that to the base of the card. I took a piece of white wood grain paper and stamped it with Versamark and then heat embossed it with Emerald Creek Rose Gold embossing powder. I tore the top and bottom edges with a ripping tool, inked the edges with black ink and then added that to the card. I took pink paper and the CAS-ual Fridays Ruffled Ribbon die and cut out the ribbon, I ran it through my Big Shot with the Swirl embossing folder and then rubbed some Victorian Velvet distress ink over the paper and added that to the card. I took some Pink crinkle ribbon and made a bow and added that to the center of the hope ribbon.
Lovely card Lori, love the vintage look and what pretty background paper. The torn edges around the sentiment add a little touch of contrast to all the pretty! Love this in a card x

I like the way you've made your sentiment strip look like torn washi tape. Very elegant and beautiful reminder, Lori. <3
