The Crafter's Cafe Challenge #290 Use Pink for breast cancer awareness month

 Hello everyone!  Did you know that October is breast cancer awareness month?  Well it is!  So the theme for this month over at Crafter's Cafe is use the color pink (the color of this movement).  I have a really cute birthday card to show you but first here is our sponsor.

Prize~£8.50/3 images

Polkadoodles has got to be one of my favorite sponsors.  Please go visit and leave some love.  I would greatly appreciate it.

On to my project.  I have used the image entitled Helga Hippo Pretty in Pink.  Here is what I came up with.  I recently became a great aunt (really 3rd cousin) to a beautiful little girl who has just turned 6.  I used Helga Hippo to make her birthday card.   Here we go.

I am so happy that I got this paper at Tuesday Morning.  It was
in 2013.  (hey at least I remembered)

Here she is.  The beautiful Helga Hippo.  

Helga was colored using Prismacolor Pencils.  Then I paper
pieced her dress, jacket, purse and even her nails match the
jacket.  The paper is a hot pink.  Then I added a couple of
butterfly stickers that are very thick. 

The Inside

This is the card stock base.  I just loved the stripes and the main
paper with the green card behind it really pops.

I sent it to her with $6.00.  Hope she can find something she will like.  My nephew got married in August and his wife is the mother to Lily (which i decided is now my niece).

Now I have a reminder for you.  I will be having Carpal Tunnel surgery the last week of October.  I am so excited.  I have dropped so many glasses I may have to buy a new set.  My hand goes numb right 
when I try to grab anything.  But this also means no coloring for a while.  I have gotten projects done for the rest of the year.  So please keep me in your thoughts.

Stay safe, stay healthy and know you are blessed!



Have a safe and fun Halloween (samhaim)!!!
