Ok, you may be thinking -- why the heck would a woman fighting breast cancer want a card with a bra on it? Well, as a survivor myself, I can say that when you reach the end of this ridiculously LONG and rotten journey, there is a lot of rebuilding you need to do -- fighting the cancer, losing your hair, your eyelashes, your breasts -- really takes a BIG hit at your femininity!
So I opted for Kathy's "Let's Punch Out Breast Cancer" challenge to make an uber-feminine bra focused card. I used papers from Echo Park Be Mine and paper pieced a very pretty bra, added in some ruffled satin & lace ribbon and lots of elegant pearls.
I opted to keep the sentiment off the front of the card -- I'll add something inside before sending this off -- Just haven't decided what.

Cammy, this is an awesome, feminine design. I'm so glad you are doing well now and are joining us with our card challenge. The funny thing is that the only other card I've seen with the bra die cut is another stamper who is a breast cancer survivor. So way to go! I'm so happy your joined in my challenge to 'Punch Out Breast Cancer' today.
