Stampin’ Up!™ provided participants in World Card Making Day (#WorldCardMakingDay25) with some sketch templates before the event. During the event, they showed some wonderful cards using these sketches. I was inspired to use the Love & Courage Set with these sketches to make these cards.
Don’t forget that the Love & Courage Set in the Mini Catalog is this year’s Making A Difference product. For every set purchased, Stampin’ Up!™ will donate $3 to breast cancer organizations. Of course, you can create cards for any kind of cancer by simply using different colors of ink and cardstock.
This first card uses the first sketch provided. What a great thank you card it would be to give to anyone who helped during a battle with cancer.
