THINK PINK challenge; 2 Sketches 4 U Bonus sketch & a TOOT!!!

I'm still widdling away at WCMD challenges,
& still using nothing but paper scraps for my cards.

I knew I wanted to do this next challenge.
For the first time in my life,
I had someone dear to me become diagnosed with Breast Cancer.
She is the absolute sweetest person you will ever meet
& it broke my heart,
BUT, she has a strong faith in God
and a strong husband & family to support her.
So, when I saw this challenge, Carla Peicheff's THINK PINK challenge,
I knew I was going to make something.
I used some origami paper, adding lace & flowers for a feminine touch.
I love how it turned out & THANK YOU Carla,
for making me get this done.

AND, I also managed to get the 2 Sketches 4 U - Bonus Sketch,
done & it was another sketch by Carla Peicheff.
I pieced rhinestones together for the dragonfly
& love the way it turned out.
My flower is from a pack I bought at Michael's eons ago.
This is only the 2nd time I've used it & need to use them more.

And last, but certainly not least:)
I'm going to be published in the April 2009 issue of Scrapbooks Etc.!!
I'm so stinkin' excited about this, as this is my favorite magazine!!
That's all I have for now.
I think I'm trying to get sick:(
I was in bed by 8:20 last night with body aches
& though I'm not feverish or anything else like that,
I'm extremely fatigued & my body just wants to stay in bed.
I'm still hoping to make a few more things today though:)
Thanks for stopping by!!
