Sunflower Love & Courage friend card

My card today is very near and dear to my heart.  I've used the Making a Difference stamp set for 2025, Love & Courage, to make this card for my friend.  Although, mine is specifically pink, this set can be used for any type of cancer and made into any of the colors that represent the different cancers.  I think it's a must have in your collection.  Who doesn't know someone who is or has fought the battle?  Sometimes a little encouragement is all it takes to make someone's day when they aren't feeling great.  You can watch the video tutorial on how I've put my card together over on my YouTube channel. 

Supplies and Measurements:

Love & Courage ($3 from each stamp set sold goes to breast cancer non-profits.)

 Hello everyone.  I hope you like the sneak peek of one of this year's Sale a-bration offerings by Stampin' Up!  This is a level 2 set which includes a photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies.  I found some Italian milk chocolate hearts at my local Home Goods store and knew I would need to make a treat box to share them in.  I designed two boxes, one with reinforced sides and front and the other with just a reinforced front so I could get two boxes from one sheet of cardstock if I were to make a bunch of them.  I like to design boxes which allow me to get multiples from one sheet of cardstock.  If you would like to see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Triangle Treat box using Hearts & Hugs
