I thought I'd do a different kind of celebration card today - the pink in the photo inpsired me to pull out the Pink Power stamp set. I also used the celebrate sentiment from Moments Remembered. I've used the Rounded Scallop Frame, cutting it twice and joining the parts together to create a larger frame. 


I've also used the fantastic Banner Bundle, Pennant Trim and Ribbon dies. 

Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines!

  30. Lovely card! Great idea to use the cancer fighter/survivor theme for a celebration. I also hadn't thought of expanding a frame by cutting it twice and piecing it together, I'll have to try that sometime.
