Hi there my crafty friends! It’s Lisa here with you today and I’m thrilled to bring you a super fun and PINK card in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
You may think it’s weird to celebrate something as life-altering as breast cancer, but here is why they do WHAT they do to promote awareness during the month of October (sharing the info which was posted already by Beth Pingry):
“The National Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation’s mission is to help women now by providing help and inspiring hope to those affected by breast cancer through early detection, education and support services.
Breast cancer is one of the leading health crises for women in the United States. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is currently no known cure for breast cancer, and its early diagnosis is critical to survival.” source: NBCF Website
We will have our limited edition Pink Creative Photo Corners are available only during the month of October. When you purchase these, a portion of the sale is donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. How awesome is THAT?!!
Just ask for them at your favorite retailer.

Love all the textures and colors on this card it’s fun and funky which is a nice change up. I think using the word celebratiate is so accurate for this annual campaign of awareness. We as woman must support each other and celebrate life no matter where we fall in it! We may be the fighter, the friend of the fighter, the caretaker of the fighter so we are all in this together. Together is how we will make a difference!
