Happy October. As we all know October is breast Cancer awareness month. Im always touched when I see the support and love that comes with this month and the symbol of a pink ribbon. We really need to keep the awareness and support going all year long.

As a nurse I see first hand the devastation this illness causes. We need to be aware of all the colors of ribbon out there for all the types of CANCER. We need to solve this puzzle before it touches our children, grandchildren etc.

Thanks to Stef at Glitterbabe for this freebie digi. There is an awesome Link for Pink challenge that is being sponsored by Touched by a Butterfly, see the Link for Pink badge and join the support.

My aunt was diagnosed with Br CA about 10 months ago. I made this bookmark for her to celebrate her victory.

Tag is from acetate, embossed with my Sizzix Swiss Dots folder. colored with Copics and Stickles to make the ribbon shine.
