Fibro Aware Card!

The challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog this week was to create a project to show your support for a cause or to raise awareness for a cause. Well, most of you know I have Fibromyalgia and suffer daily this this debilitating chronic pain syndrome. The most common color associated with Fibro is purple so my card is all purple and butterflies are also commonly shown with Fibro awareness logos. Did you know Fibromyalgia Awareness Day is May 12th?? Don't forget to where your purple that day! The ribbon image is from Dustin Pike and I colored it with pencils before I used Diamond stickles to outline it. I cut the butterfly at 2inches using my Cricut and the Live Simply cartridge. "Fibro" is cut at 1inch using the Alphalicious cartridge. The ribbon is purple satin from my stash and I added Diamond stickles to the butterfly's wings and to the letters to make everything shiny. I wish I could make Fibromyalgia shiny; nothing about it is shiny unfortunately. If you'd like to know more about it click my "Fibromyalgia" page above for info and great links! Speaking of Fibro awareness...Don't forget to check out my BLOG CANDY and grab my Fibro awareness button to display on your blog!

  2. That's a beautiful card, and certainly a worthy cause, and one that's too often overlooked. Thanks for joining us at FCCB.

  9. What a great card! I love the way you incorporated both the colour and symbol. I'm sorry that you can't make your fibromyalgia shiny - but your attitude seems to be.
