Believe In Yourself

Welcome to the

"Believe in Yourself" Blog Hop 

sponsored by 

Unity Stamp Company & Paper Issues

**You should be arriving here from Renee Aslette's Blog**

Being a part of both Design/Creative Teams makes this hop

even more exciting and fun for me! 

 Cassie (owner of Paper Issues) created some very special kits for us

 to use in conjunction with Unity Stamps with the theme being:

Believe in Yourself

Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we were 

thinking pink, along with inspirational messages for all women, whether

they are a breast cancer survivor or not.  All women have been affected

in one way or another by this type of cancer.  

For my project I have created a layout of my Mamaw Bea at her

90th Birthday Party.  In her 90 years she has been through so much:

losing two sons, a husband, parents, a grandchild and having been

in a major car wreck and dealing with the recuperation associated with that.

  Through it all, she's been one to pull herself up by her boot-straps and 

carry on.  Since her 90th birthday Mamaw has suffered from dementia and

failing health all-together.  But she's still as feisty as ever!

One of her sisters in the photo is a breast cancer survivor...I thought these

photos would be a nice tribute to these women of strength.

Along with the Paper Issues Kit, I've used these beautiful stamps by Unity:

Moments in Bloom by Lisa Hetrick

After layering my patterned papers, I stamped on the grid image (love that!)

and used one of the sentiments on a kraft tag provided by Cassie.  

I think that it all came together quite lovely ♥
