CFC73 - For the Girls


October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and CAS-ual Fridays is hosting their most recent challenge  "For the Girls".  I wanted to create something witty that would cheer up a friend or family member in need but I was drawn to putting a butterfly on my card.  So I punched a butterfly out on baby pink vellum (I love the look of vellum butterflies) and I made a tiny breast cancer awareness ribbon to place on its body.  I hope that I never need to use this card.  As a young girl I lost my grandmother to cancer. She first had breast cancer, than bladder cancer and then finally bone cancer.  

As uncomfortable as they are, remember your mammograms ladies!
