I made this card a couple of days ago for a lady named Misty. Mothermark (Cindy Motherway) posted a RAK request in the Need A Lift forum for a family member of hers who has breast cancer, here is a link: Forums at Splitcoaststampers. If you would like to send Misty a card, just PM Mothermark for the address!
I decided that I had to make a pink card for Misty, so I pulled out my Papertrey Ink Sweet Blush and Berry Sorbet. I also pulled my new Out on a Limb set. I thought that last week's sketch challenge (SC183 would be perfect with the OOAL set), so I used it for this cardThe card base is made with sweet blush cs and on the inside I layered a piece of whisper white cs for writing. I stamped the flower images from OOAL in sweet blush around the border of the whisper white panel.
Each of the panels on the card front is matted with Berry Sorbet. On the bottom panel of sweet blush cs, I stamped the Linen bg in berry sorbet ink. On the card base and on the middle panel, I made a background with the individual flower from OOAL in sweet blush ink. I tied a piece of berry sorbet satin ribbon around the middle panel. The top panel is whisper white cs. I stamped the limb in close to cocoa ink and the flowers in berry sorbet ink. The sentiment (from All Holidays) is stamped on the card base in close to cocoa ink.
Thanks for looking and check out Mothermark's RAK request!

What a beautiful card! I love that you put a pink beautiful ribbon on this card...the layout is fantastic and the whole thing just coordinates so well! I can see a little tiny bit of the inside too and you stamped in there! Thank you so much for sending this to Misty! She will be so touched as am I!
And THANKS for providing a link here.....You are the coolest!

This is such a lovely card. I really like the background paper you created with that simple, little stamp. I'm sure this will bring a smile to her face.
