Today's HYCCT1306 challenge is to create with one of the 'colors of cancer'. Since Christmas 2012, two of my sweet cousins have passed away due to breast cancer. Bennie Kay was 1 year older than me, and Vicki was 2 years older. In honor of them, I've chosen to create with pink.
Fortunately I browsed through this week's featured stamper's gallery (darlenedesign), and found just the nudge I needed in this card. Congrats on your featured week, Darlene!

Sweet Bev, what a beautiful way to honor the memories of your cousins. Your butterfly is precious, and your card so meaningful. Everyone likes to hear those words.....love you. And love you too. Beautiful.

Bev, I feel for your loss. Your card is a real tribute to your cousins. I believe this is the best way we can let those who have past to know that we really care. It's obvious you do by your creation.
