Hi everyone and happy Monday!! I hope you had a fabulous weekend!! Its the first Monday in April, so that means it's time for a Delicious Die Cuts Challenge at Paper Playtime!! The challenge this week is to use any die cut and an umbrella on your project :)
I made this card for my cousin who just underwent a double mastectomy. The papers are from My Mind's Eye Lost & Found 2 Rosy stack.
I stitched the background paper to the base of the card. The tan background is a Spellbinders Creative Book Pages 2 die, inked with Walnut Distress Ink. I stitched it to black cardstock. The black and white polka dot design is a Spellbinders Lacy Doily Motif die.
The labels are Spellbinders labels 11, and I embossed the bottom one with the Swiss Dots embossing folder to mimic the spots on the lacy doily. I added Glossy Accents to the umbrella girl and inked the edged with Walnut Distress Ink.
This label is a Spellbinders Label 10. "Brave is beautiful" is from K Andrew Designs Positive Thoughts stamp set.
I used a Spellbinders Fleur de lis Square for the inside, again inked with Walnut Distress Ink, and a stamp from K Andrew Designs Scripture Sayings stamp set. Click HERE to purchase your own set or to see her entire fabulous line of stamps!!

I hope your friend is doing well after her surgery. My mom went through breast cancer, she thankfully did not have to have the masectomy but it is never easy dealing with cancer. Many prayers for her. I love this card. I am sure she will appreciate it.
