Fight Like A Girl!

With October comes Breast Cancer Awareness.  This is the month that celebrates survivors, supports those undergoing treatment, and morning those that lost the battle.   For today's StarStampz Challenge the theme is lace, ribbon, and/or cord.  This i think is perfect as I could use an awareness ribbon on this card.

I chose to use the Sunday Best Image, since it seems to represent femininity.  It fit the whole lace and ribbon theme as well. 

Don't forget to join the StarStampz challenge for your chance to win some really cute digital images like the one you see here.

Sunday Best 3"
Copic Markers
Flower Pleated Lace Nested Dies
​Awareness Ribbon
​Amelia Rose Dark Florals 5.5" x 5.5"
Heart Cotton Candy Cardstock
Black Glitter Cardstock
5.5" x 5.5" Card Base
Pink & White Baker's Twine
​Pink Polka Dot Ribbon
Double sided Tape.  Liquid Glue
Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic Glue
​1/4" Foam Tape

To begin I printed my image set to 3 in.  Using the larges of the Flower Pleated Lace Nested Dies, I die cut out my images so that it was centered.  

Below are the colors I used to color in my image. 
​
Skin:  E000, E11, E13, E04, E93  Hair: E41, E33, E23, E27  Eyes: B01, B02, B04  Sky: B000
 Grass: YG61  Flower, Dress, Basket:  R01, R30, R32, R43, YG03, E27, E29  Shoes:  C5, R43
I die cut the Awareness Ribbon from the Heart Cotton Candy cardstock.  I then traced the ribbon die onto the back of the black glitter cardstock to create a backing for the die cut.  I used Cosmic Shimmer Acrylic glue to adhere the die cut to the backing. 
To add some interest to the card and help break up the background some, I used pink polka dot and pink/white twine to wrap around the floral print cardstock.  I used 1/8" double sided tape to adhere down the ribbon and then to attached two pieces oftwine to a swatch of double sided tape.  I made sure to cross then over the fron t of the card. 
Using double sided tape, I adhered the cardstock down to my card base.  
Time to place the image on the card using 1/4" double sided tape.  Make sure to keep it centered. 
I tied a small bow if the pink twine onto the awareness ribbon die cut.  Then I used 1/4" double sided tape to adhere it down on the lower right corner of the image. 
Finally I hand wrote "Strength" onto a 1/4" strip of white cardstock with a diagonal cut and adhered it down so that it is under and over the ribbon.  This is what the final card will look like.
