Challenge Title: REAL Men Wear PINK!
Hostess: Dina K. (aka dini)
Keyword: HYCCT1103
Date: Monday, October 3rd, 2011
It’s encouraging to see men getting involved in promoting breast cancer awareness by wearing pink during the month of October. They're reminding men and women to talk to their doctors about breast cancer and the importance of the yearly mammogram. Breast cancer affects every one of us somehow. (And though the occurrence of breast cancer is 100x greater in women, did you know that men can get breast cancer too?)
In honor of the men who stand behind the women in their lives…
Create a masculine card with PINK on it somewhere.

Thank you for participating in this card drive! HUGE thanks to Anna (SweetMissDaisy) and Jeanne (Jeanne S) for helping me out with samples!
Can't seem to get into the gallery for this either by clicking on "here" or by copying and pasting the HTCC for it in the Search part of gallery. Just letting you know.
Took me awhile to figure this one out, then I found the striped strip with pink in it and built my card up from there. I even made this masculine owl wear pink in his vest.
thanks for the challenge!
