Leslie passed away on Christmas Day last year, but I know she is celebrating this *gah* pink challenge in spirit with her fellow Belles and Shopping Our Stash design team.
Last weekend I was reorganizing my old Stampin' Up decorative papers; I separated my collections and sorted all by color. That was when I came across these scraps and I knew I needed to use them for this challenge. Leslie used to be a Stampin' Up demonstrator, so I'm pretty sure she would have had these papers in her stash. I even colored the tree trunks with a Stampin' Up marker "Pretty in Pink." I love it when I start purging/re-organizing crafty supplies and it sparks a little creativity! The trees stamp is by Paper Smooches ("Warm Hearts") and the wonky stitched die is My Favorite Things Die-namics.
Happy Tuesday!

A very sweet card and remembrance of your dear friend Leslie.
This is the prettiest card, June. I absolutely love it. It looks fresh!
I think your friend, Leslie, would have loved all the thought and love you put into this card.

Oh that's pretty, June - I love using up scraps (justification for all the hoarding!) and this is such a creative way to do it. Great idea to combine Breast Cancer Awareness and Pink Christmas. I'm sure Leslie would have given a very satisfied "Gah" to this card!
