Cricut Cardz Challenge #93

Cricut Cardz Challenge #93 - "Think Pink".  October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. To help promote this worthy cause, make a card for a friend or loved one for Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Use any cartridges you'd like and use Pink as your primary color.  Make sure you give your card to a friend or loved one! 
This card was made for my sister in-law who was diagnosed with breast cancer this year.  I'm happy to say she is doing great!  We are thankful she was having regular mammograms because that is how they found her cancer.  Please everyone, be sure to get your mammograms!!
