The Sister Study, A Study of the Environmental and Genetic Risk Factors for Breast Cancer.
My sister was diagnosed with breast cancer more than 15 years ago. And almost ten years ago I joined the Sister Study, which is made up of 50,000 women whose sisters have had breast cancer. And let me just say that the areas of study are widely varied, and...ummmm...well, let's just say that they're...unique!
This is the Sister Study logo...
...And so...
Your Challenge will be to use BOTH pink AND purple on your card... AND I want SOME element, or elements, of your card to be in twos. Two flowers, Two trees, Two gals...sisters!...you understand I'm sure!
I want to thank Fran, Dina, Lee, Barbara, Lori, Joyce, and Jennifer for making samples for my challenge. My card, and the ones they made, are attached below.

Diane- a wonderful challenge! I love the idea of pairs- here's my list of elements: 2 brads, 6 stitches, 6 letters (always) 4 letters (love) 2 large red gems and 4 small gems, 2 drawn hearts. This is dedicated to my Aunt Noni who we lost to breast cancer, my mom's sister who was dear to us. Here is my card- Love Always

I'm getting here late, I'm sorry. I hope this doesn't count as a hijack...DH and I were in an accident coming home from church today. Everybody's okay, but a smash-up sure can wreck your day!
I thought of an idea for this challenge as soon as I read it, so I will set to work on it. I'll be back later!

I'm back - Here's my contribution. The color is a little off - I don't have a great setup for taking pictures in artificial light. What looks like green is actually "antique linen" from TH distress inks.
Two colors, two layers of matting, two impressions of the stamp, two colors of flowers, three flowers in the image, three droplets on each side, - oh yes: two sides - I think I got most of them. Thanks for a fun challenge, Diane! (And just for the coincidence of it, my sister is named Diane too!)
I'm signing off for now. We're okay, but the later it gets, the more bruises I'm finding. I'm going to head for bed. Thanks for the good wishes.
