365 Cards - Challenge 144

You Raise Me Up: Try to incorporate at least TWO ways to add dimension to your card.

I've just finished making a dozen of these cards... I'm taking them to work tomorrow to sell as a fundraiser for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. While I didn't make them in specific response to the challenge - I did just finish them, they fit the challenge to a "T" and I do hope it's an acceptable entry (if it's not - no worries... I'll make a replacement card for the challenge this week)

Adding Dimension:
Cuttlebug folder: Bloom Dots (check)
Pop Dots to make the embossed panel 'pop' (check)
Ribbon (check)
Punched flowers (check)
buttons (check)
Brads (check)
Pink Ribbon eyelet (check)
Swarovski crystal (check)

Now, off to package these babies in their acrylic bags, and they're good to go for tomorrow!

Thanks for lookin' y'all. G'night!

Nice card.

How perfect for the challenge. I would never have thought to embellish like that. (And - yes, insomnia is still keeping me up. I think the stickles on my card is going to dry before Mr. Sandman comes to visit me!)

Wow Carolyn - these are so nice. I might have to CASE this one! We are getting ready for our Relay for Life here... Great job, and I would think that you can most certainly use it for your challenge!

Great looking card and a great purpose for a card. I try to make Breast Cancer Awareness 'treats' for the staff at my school (they pay more attention when it contains food!). Most staff members have been touched by cancer in one way or another. I may CASE this for this October's give away.

Thanks for your comment on my Twilight card, it means a lot to hear from others...Have a great day.
