Postal 4th Annual Think Pink Breast Cancer awareness swap.
New Think Pink Breast Cancer Awareness Month card Swap. Due October 20th, 2012.
Cards don't have to be pink.
This is a special swap. October is Breast cancer awareness Month. As a breast cancer survivor as many of my friends here are. I though we would do a think pink card. I will be sending some of these to other women who are facing breast cancer. There is a catch to this swap you must make 2 extra cards and send to two women in your life that you care about.
You must check in 2 weeks before the end date and let me know you are still in the swap. If you need to drop out that is fine life happens but I don't have the time to pm 20 people a few times to see if you are still in the swap. If you can't do this then don't sign up. Thank you. You must also check in after swap and let us know you received your swap back.
If you would like to make an extra card to donate to the cause that would be great as I will be selling cards to raise money.
Make your cards theme related to Breast cancer or women your choice We want each person receiving your cards to feel as if they are receiving a card from a friend who cares.
Sign up for as many spots as you'd like, but please, make a different design for each spot you take.
Feel free to stop by and discuss anything you would like to discuss. Ask questions or post notes of inspiration. Lets make this a heartfelt swap with smiles and lots of friend.

I would definitely like a spot in this swap, especially since I'm a breast cancer survivor. And plan on staying that way for several years to come; in spite of the fact that it now wants to eat my bones!!!
