Breast Cancer Month

October is Breast Cancer month.  I will display this on my blog for the entire month!  This is very near and dear to my heart.  Two years ago while having a routine mammogram I got that dreaded call.  We have " we have an area of concern" we would like for you to come in to the breast center and have an ultra sound.  Not knowing exactly what that meant I was in shock. 

I went in had the ultra sound seemed like for ever all alone with my husband in the waiting room I get moved in to an office where there was a doctor sitting.  She said,  we have found a lump on your left side and about an inch in size.  We don't think it looks like cancer but we want to watch it and have you come back in 6 months.  I waited and prayed, and prayed over that next six months. 

Talk about torture over that time.  Low and behold the appointment came around.  They took another mammogram followed buy more picture, followed by 3-d mammogram then an ultrasound again.  Again the whole time by myself hubby in the waiting room wondering was it bad news.

Luckily, by the grace of God it was not cancer.  I will still have to be monitored every year and the lump is still there but with God's grace.  It will not grow it will just be there. 

I was extremely lucky several of my dearest friends were not so lucky.  They got the dreaded Cancer diagnosis.  I am so honored to have these beautiful ladies in my life and love them both dearly.

Beth,  Janis and Pattie you guys rocked and beat cancer!!!!!  You are awesome ladies and I love you dearly!!!

One Layered Card - Featuring Kennedy Grace Creations: Time To Blossom

Hey folks! I'm back to share a card from the Kennedy Grace Creations New Release! The stamp set I used today is the Time To Blossom Stamp Set . I really enjoyed the simplicity of this set. You could totally heat emboss this and do some fabulous watercoloring, but Copic's seems to be the way to go for me lately so that's what I did. I started by stamping the image twice on my card panel. The only masking I did was a tiny bit on the stem. The name of the game was to keep this super simple folks. As I said, I colored the images with Copic's. Another thing I enjoy about the Time To Blossom Stamp Set is that you could choose any colors you wanted. I chose red-violets and yellow-greens, but seriously peeps, whatever floats your boat and it will looks great! To finish off my card, I used a added a couple of hand drawn lines to the background and I stamped a portion of a stamp that is also in the Time To Blossom Stamp Set . That's it! Easy peasy. T
