Coffee and Cards with Deb and Celeste | Breast Cancer Awareness Month | Hope Card
Hello, y'all. Welcome to October, aka Breast Cancer Awareness Month, or in the USA, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Every October, major breast cancer charities around the world organize this campaign to increase awareness of the disease and raise funds for research. My friends Deb ( Meticulosity ) and Celeste ( Crafting Junky ) asked me to join them this month for their monthly card collab, "Coffee with Deb and Celeste", where this month's theme is Breast Cancer Awareness. Of course, I said YES! Did you know that a woman in the U.S. has about a 13% chance of developing invasive breast cancer during her lifetime? That's about 1 in 8 women. The overall 5-year survival rate is 91.9%, rising to 99% if the cancer is caught early. Since there is HOPE, I made a mini slimline HOPE card. I made a card base, 3" x 7", using white cardstock. I cut a piece of pink cardstock, 3" x 7", a piece of white cardstock, 2.75" x 6.75"...
