1. Out of the three images shown, I chose the light switch plates......maybe because the Photographer is an electrician? Who knows!
2. I made this card for my sister-in-law's sister who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and is currently going through chemo.
3. I am amazed how many families are affected by breast cancer and sadly, I suppose it was just a matter of time before it touched someone in our family.
4. Misty is not a stamper, but my neice just introduced her to it thinking it would keep her mind off things, give her something to do while she is away being treated, give her something fun to look forward to.
5. Michelle bought her a few supplies and a stamp set and Misty stamped for 8 hours straight. She loves it!
6. I have started a RAK request in the Need a Lift forum requesting cards for Misty. Not only will they support her, cheer her up, but they will be wonderful examples for a newbie stamper!

Sorry to hear this awful and dreaded disease has found its way into your family. I am glad she has discovered the joy of stamping and that it will be something that can help her through and possibly give her joy. pm me her addy.. I would love to send her the card I made for today's challenge.

This lovely card should give her something to look at and wonder....just beautiful, Cindy! This goes right into my favs. Will send Misty a card today, and let her know she is not alone, and that support from friends (and even strangers) is a blessing!
