This card is going to Sandy who is battling breast cancer for the second time. I got so hung up on using my breast cancer stamp set for the first time I totally overlooked that the card was supposed to be a circle. dumb dumb dumb!!!! At least I got the buttons part right.

awesome card. Thank you so much for not making a round card!!! Now I have a friend in the gallery. I am not totally square but for a senior citizen...I seem to be a rebel. I love the sentiment and the images. You bring a little humor and words of encouragement. My grandmother died of breast cancer when my mother was just a few months old and my mother had breast cancer and I have had 2 tumors removed from my breast...7 tumors in all....one cancer in my thyroid so I can definitely relate to the importance of check ups and giving encouragement during difficult times. you did it all with this card. tfs.
hugs,

Not to worry... there's plenty of round in your card. There are those sweet buttons and the stitching around the cups... I'd say this gets you in the front door. Love your colors and ribbon treatment.

Awesome card - love the striking colors and that stamp set is perfect for the destination. The buttons on the ribbon are the perfect touch. Now, if you lay it down flat on the table and spin it, it'll look round for sure. (Just kidding!)

You can roll right in the front door, my friend, because you have round buttons on your card! I love the images you've used and the colors are awesome. The card is really pretty!

Bwhahaha! I don't blame you at all for getting all wrapped up in these fun images! Tee hee! Sandy will get such a kick outa this! Why, I didn't even realize it wasn't round......until one of the girls tested its bouncibility! Hey, bouncibility is over rated any way. I mean lets, face it, do you really think any of these designer dodgeballs are gonna see the gym floor? I doubt it girlfriend! Beautiful and fun card. Sandy will love it!
Say hi to the girls at the back door for me! Bwahahaha!!!! I am sure as the teaparty rolls on, you will be joined by some others with bouncibilit issues! Snort!

I think Sandy will be pleased that you've made a card depicting support of breast cancer research... she'll be getting lots of circle cards... she'll treasure this one...

Every designer has a different idea of how their dodge ball should look-you are cutting edge-you decided to make your ball square. It's going to hit the runway rolling-it probably is made of some extra super duper bounce material!!! lol This is just darling. I can see how you got wrapped up in the images-they are so thoughtful and perfect for Sandy. This is such a beautiful card and awesome dodge ball entry!

Just keep Molly T. Moyer's card in your wallet for when this dodgeball causes some injuries with the corners. I understand she has never lost a case! Great images!

Beautifully done, who needs a round dodge ball anyway? You are on the cutting edge of design!
