A card for my special friend Laurel, who is just starting her chemo for breast CA. Laurel is a very talented and crafty friend who loves anything homemade. I did this weeks sketch challenge and color challenge in this card. The color challenge was a bit of a challenge because I had the CS, but only 1 color, Apricot Appeal. I used my Stampin' Pastels for my Eggplant and Celery. Worked just fine. I loved the effect of the embossed Canvas stamp. My 1st attempt. Thanks "leslierich" for the idea and thanks to "suen" for the skewered sentiment idea. Enjoy!

Beautiful, Nancy! Your friend will love it! Great job improvising with your supplies! I really like how the apricot paper is coming out of the frame and I like the tag hanging from the spiral. TFS!
