I made this card using Unity's stamps from the Oct KOM. I love the quotes they come up with! This card is honor of Breast Cancer Awareness of course, but I also chose to use the card sketch from Sweet Sketch Wednesday and their color challenge.

Then I decided to kick it up a notch (thanks Emeril!) and add some sparkle because that's what the challenge is all about at Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog! I added some gold stickles to the sunshine and rock candy stickles(----> very cool!) to the pink ribbon.

...and a close-up...

The Pink Elephant #35 & Simon Says Stamp

I made this adorable Halloween card at a Stampin' Up Meet up through Laura Thorpe. She got the design from Connie over at Inkspired Treasures. I don't really make Halloween cards, but I love this one! I just love the skelly and dog plus the cute little saying. It made the "bite" out of the card just perfect. I wouldn't mind making more Halloween cards like this one! I'm using this card for The Pink Elephant Challenge #35 which was to use the colors Black, Orange, Purple and White. And also Simon Says Stamp, which was to make a Halloween card. Here is my card:
