Crafting for all Seasons #52 "Think Pink"

Good morning all.
Well I seemed to lose yesterday trying to sort an Order of Service!! Me and the newer version of Word just don't get on and I eventually cut and pasted everything into Craft Artist to get it laid out properly. It is an exceptionally long service.....8 sides to be precise when I had finished....it started off 11 sides!! Never mind it's done now and all ready to print once I've finished the toppers for the covers. by the time I'd finished it was nearly bedtime so sorry I didn't get to visit anyone.

I'm off to Newcastle shopping with one of my sister's today to sort her wedding outfit out so if I don't get around to see everyone tonight I'll see you all on Thursday.

Today it's time for a new challenge at CFAS and it's a very special one close to all our hearts.  It's our second birthday and as a tribute to and in memory of Dawn Austin the founder of the challenge our theme this time is "Think Pink". 

Dawn fought a long and valiant fight against breast cancer, never losing faith or giving up hope that a cure could be found. Sadly a cure wasn't found in time to save Dawn and she passed away in February.

Dawn was a very private person but the glimpses she gave into her everyday life were always filled with love for her family and her crafting.

We're being sponsored by Robyn's Fetish and Rick St Dennis (who gave the DT images to use) and Inky Impressions (Nicole designed some sentiments specially for the challenge). 

This one's for you Dawn...I hope you like it!!

Image is "Daisy Days" from Robyn's Fetish and I've coloured her with promarkers. Sentiment is from Inky Impressions and I've changed the colour in Publisher. Base punch is from Martha Stewart - I think this is my favourite punch although I do have a new one I haven't used yet which may take it's place!! Pink card from Papermania. Papers are a Me to You magazine freebie. Dies are all from Spellbinders. Floral lace, ribbon, butterflies, button, skeleton leaves, flowers and gems are all from my stash.

We're being joined by many of our former design team girls who also wanted to pay tribute to Dawn, so please pop over to the challenge blog to see all their inspiration. We're  looking forward to seeing all your makes this time and hope as many as possible of you will join us in this very special tribute to to a very special lady.
