Unity Challenge Wednesday- HOPE

The Unity pre-HIP-HOP-addicts Challenge today is another "recipe" challenge, hosted by the very sweet, Cyndi! Check out her blog, she is full of some wonderful inspiration. Cyndi's challenge is the HOPE challenge, because we are still in Breast Cancer Awareness month. Sooo, here is your recipe: (you can use one or all of these elements, but we encourage you to include them all!! This IS a challenge, right??) LOL.
1. H....Use a sentiment having to do with HOPE.
2. O....Put some ribbon ON your card (pink ribbon, preferable- for Breast Cancer Awareness)
3. P....Use something PINK.
4. E....EMBELLISH with something that starts with "m" for Mammogram.
I thought that the Unity Stamp Co kit Floral Fantastical would be perfect for this challenge. I knew it had the sentiment, "Hope," in it, and lots and lots of pretty floral stamps. I also used the colors for SCS color challenge 190: Pixie Pink, Tangerine, and Kiwi Kiss. My card recipe: Papers: Kiwi Kiss, Tangerine Tango, Sweet Always DSP and PTI White. Ink: Pixie Pink for the sentiment. The image is stamped in Versamark ink and then chalked for color (poppin' pastels). I embellished with metal (SU hodgepodge hardware) and made a pink awareness ribbon. I also used a pink and green button for some extra dimension. Stamps: Unity Stamp Co- Floral Fantatstical. Now, if you want to play along with us, and I HOPE you do, you can find the discussion thread on SCS. If you are going to upload your creation to the SCS Gallery, please use the keyword: USC10. Don't forget to check out all the other Rockin' Unity Challenge Chickas blogs located on the left side, below. Thanks for stopping by and have a HAPPY STAMPING day!!!
