Raise the Bar's blog is remembering that October is breast cancer awareness month and we are to create something in pink. I combined this with Lee's HYCCT inspiration photo challenge. Normally, I cluster flowers in odd numbers, but in keeping with the "boobie pairs", I kept it to 2 flowers on this card! I also used DP with pairs of birds in the design. I wanted this great sentiment from Verve to be the focal point and continued with using Jen Del Muro's super sketch for her monthly Sketch For You To Try challenge. This also fits for the Ways to Use It challenge to use pink, pink, pink. Whew! Think I covered all 4 challenges adequately! TGIF!

I think that on a corner like that the two-flower arrangement works really well - although like you I tend to work with odd numbers normally . Thanks for that inspiration to think outside the box.
