I am a Survivor



Ribbon for a Cause is the theme of the  Chocolate, Coffee and Cards challenge this week of  Aug. 24th, 2012! Isn't that a wonderful challenge theme, I'm sure we all have our favourite cause, I actually have several but decided to showcase 'Prostate Cancer' as I have a brother who conquered  it and a husband who is awaiting surgery for a prostate related problem (not cancer). Doodle Pantry is the proud sponsor of this weeks challenge and I choose the  birdie from their  'I will Survive' stamp set and coloured the ribbon light blue  the color for Prostate cancer.  Hope you  join in and who knows you might win a Doodle Pantry prize!

    I love that you did a survivor's card for the Ribbon for a Cause! Or maybe that's just because I am one of those survivors. :-D Hugs, my friend.
