Breast Cancer Awareness Month - Think Pink

Think Pink! This is Breast Cancer Awareness Month... Please make sure your loved ones have had their mammograms done every time they should.

Well, the last time I wrote, I mentioned that I was ready to submit a card to a magazine... well, I did it!  I dropped it in the mail last week.  Now I sit with my fingers crossed that someday I'll see it in a magazine.  It may be many months down the road and of course, I'll have to buy every issue for the next year or two to find out probably! 

Our local Chamber of Commerce is having their annual fundraiser on October 16th and has a silent auction as well as a live auction in conjunction with it.  I made a dozen cards with envelopes and put them in a cute locked box that I got from Hobby Lobby that looked like it was covered in old postcards. Oh, and I also put a small address book and a green rhinestone pen in it too... get it?  GREEN?!  I hope it will bring lots of money for them.  It will also tell me if I'm any good or not too.  I had a friend help me decide what to call my entry and I just loved what she came up with and I think that is what I'm going to my cards... Eclectic Cards by Barb.... I printed it on a tag that I had that looked very eclectic itself, then tied it onto the handle of the box with some twine.

I also uploaded some cards onto my gallery on  Splitcoaststampers.com you can see they are the ones that are dated October 6, 2010.  It's just a sample of some of the cards I did for the Chamber's event.  I think my favorite though is my Halloween card!  I'm going to make several more of those and mail them to my LOSTie friends and my friend friends!  They know who they are.

I've got to go now.  I've been fighting a migraine for two days now and I really need to head to bed and get some rest.  Thanks for spending some time with me today.

Hugs all around,
B
