I hope you give this fun fold a try.  I did have a bit of trouble using the small little bird as an anchor to keep the card closed during the video.  I revamped it, cut the bird die in thick basic white three times, glued each layer on top of the other and added my stamped bird image over the top.  I then placed a double stack of glue dots on my card where I needed it and added the bird stack to the glue dots.  It isn't perfect, but it works with such a small image.

Sunflower Love & Courage Making a Difference card tutorial

For my project today, I wanted to make a card using the Love & Courage stamp set and pair it with the Sunflower 3D embossing folder.  I used an ink blending technique to ink my focal background.  The sentiment uses a colored ink embossing powder technique.  I hope you are inspired to make some cards of encouragement for those in your life that are fighting the battle, not just breast cancer, with any cancer.  Change up the colors to suit your needs.  This is an important fight and most of know someone who is currently struggling with it or has fought the fight already.  $3 of every stamp set purchased in my Stampin' Up! online store goes to a Breast Cancer organization.  

To see how I've put this card together and learn the techniques I've used, be sure to watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel.  You can make several of these in whatever color you choose and donate to a cancer center.  They'll get into the hands of those who could use some encouragement and you get the joy of stamping and giving.
