This is for a group of us who have a little fun with our challenges. This weeks challenge was to make a RAK card for someone on a list of four names chosen from the RAK forum. I however, recieved special dispensation this week as I had 5 cards to make for raising money for Cancer.
My magolia girl ( especially made for cancer recognition) - has a ribbon that is coloured in lime green.
Sometimes it troubles me that we only ever see pink associated with Cancer - and images of women... because breast cancer/ and women's cancers are but one of the many types on Cancer's that afflict and sometimes kill people.
This is my female version of my non hodgkins lymphoma card - as after all, women get it too.
Lime Green is the colour that represents Lymphoma, a blood cancer which took my dad's life a year ago.. over a period of 2 years.

Awwww, Deborah, she is precious! Like the others, I appreciate your educating us on the different colors for cancer. I'm so sorry you lost your father to it, and am glad to see you reaching out to others.
