HSC33 -- Stamp Out Cancer!

I played around with my little ballerina Sophie Moose! She is just too darling! I decided to make a card with soft sky paper! I really like the color combination of soft sky, black and white. This card was created for Frances' sketch challenge (last Friday) - HSC33.



Stamps: Ballerina Sophie (Hanna Stamps), Everyday Sentiments (Hanna Stamps) Paper: Soft Sky (SU!), Basic Black (SU!), Neenah Solar White Ink: Onyx Black Versafine Accessories: Thin Black satin ribbon, black brads, copic markers,

If you have not heard, Hanna Stamps is selling Sophie Moose Ballerina Stamps for a good cause - to help a sweet little girl named Kelly fight cancer!!! Here are the details:

Kelly was diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma multiforme (brain tumor) in July, 2007. She had surgery to have the tumor removed at Children's Hospital of Orange County in Orange, California. After one round of radiation and chemotherapy, she had another surgery to remove a recurrent tumor on October 22. She is receiving further treatment to try to prevent another recurrence.

With this stamp, Hanna Stamps and Eclectic Paperie are teaming up and will be donating a portion of the proceeds from the sales of this stamp to her foundation. This stamp will not be sold anywhere else but these two sites!

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus).
