DIY floral background with Copics and solid stamps – BCRF fundraiser

May 1, 2017 by Sandy Allnock 180 Comments Filed Under: Copic Advanced

This was originally part of a bloghop – so many links didn’t work that I removed that part. And somehow, this re-loaded into my blog although it’s really really old, from 2017….so you may have gotten a subscriber notice! ha! Good news: stamp and die set is still available!

In honor of their three amazing mothers, Chaitali, Julie and Ellen teamed up to find a way that they could make a difference and honor these very special women in their lives and actively contribute to finding a cure for breast cancer. Together they have created the Courage Stamp & Die Set. It’s soooo beautiful!

Many of you are affected by this disease or other forms of cancer and we are turning to you for help. After much research our team made the decision to support the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  BCRF is the highest rated breast cancer organization in the nation. To learn more about BCRF please visit their website.

Through this fundraiser, it is our goal to educate and raise money for research and support services for patients and survivors battling breast cancer.  And I’m honored to join in this bloghop to celebrate and encourage these efforts!

Won’t you join us? Donate, stamp, share, create—there are many ways you can contribute!  Visit the Ellen Hutson BCRF fundraiser page to find out how and to follow our progress.

Together we can!

And now, on to MY project! I saw all the flowers – meant for layering – and knew others could do amazing cards with stamping and layering inks. But what could I do that would make this set “sing” in my own way? And as I pondered….I started seeing each one of the layer-able stamps as separate flowers…what would happen if I added to each one with a little bit of color to make them all totally different flowers?

Watch the video below or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.

Supplies

Today, I’m only linking to the stamp and die set used on this card – and it’s not an affiliate link. All of the proceeds will go to the cause, not to anyone on this hop! So please do join in and pick up a set…then go share the card you have created using #BCRF #BCRFfundraiser #cancerresearch #BeTheEnd #essentialsbyellenbcrf

    Such a wonderful idea – we can always count on Ellen & friends for supporting things that really matter. Love your ideas for easy flowers. I see where I could use my wildflowers from the class you did last summer. But right now I need to go to Ellen’s and get me one of those stamp sets. Thanks to all of those involved in this effort, for all you do!

    I don’t usually comment, whether there’s a giveaway or not, but I had to when you said you’d be donating for every one you got. Your generosity and talent are above and beyond!!

    That is such a pretty card, Sandy, I’m sure it would mean so much to your friend to receive it. I went through breast cancer treatment in 2013 (4 years cancer free for me -YAY!) and small things like a note or a card are treasured during this stressful time.

    It is a very “Sandy” card for sure, with all that yellow, but so bight and cheery and I know your friend will be encouraged by it. Thank you for your generosity for the cause.

    Sandy,

    I have been motivated to comment on the other blogs because, like Ellen, Julie, Chailateli, and so many others, this is a cause near and dear to my heart.

    I love what you have done with the stamp set to show the versatility it has. And, of course, for you yellow is the best color you could have used to make a card that was sure to wow us! You do always seem to find a new way to show off stamps that I don’t see anyone else come up with.

    Thank you for making a difference! You are such an inspiration!
