Blogs For Boobies - Check it Out!

Today, I'm showcasing a set of cards I made in honor of a cause that affects 1 in 8 women: Breast cancer. 


Breast_cancer_awareness_card

I'm one of over 60 bloggers who were invited to participate in a hop that raises awareness and funds for breast cancer. It's called Blogs 4 Boobies and is the brainchild of the amazing Skipping Stones Designs stamp company.



Now, to me breast cancer isn't about the boobies (although it's a fun word to say). It's about the women (and men) behind the disease. Over 40,000 women will die in the U.S. this year because of breast cancer. 

So a group of bloggers got together and decided to do a Hop that will raise money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation. 

I'll be auctioning off a set of 3 cards. 

Card 1

breast_cancer_awareness_stamped_card

Card 2

butterfly_and_distress_inks_thanks_you_card

Card 3

bird_and_distress_inks_friendship_stamped_card

Want to help raise money for this awesome cause?!
Here's how the auction works:

Bid Process Very easy!
To my  blog visitors and followers make a bid, for the card set, in the comment section of this  blog post. Bidding starts at $5.  Put your email address next to the bid as a way of "signing it" or authenticating the bid. 



Winner Process

The winning bidder will receive a paypal invoice from Skipping Stones Designs aka Heather Engebretson and she will collect the money. All of which will be donated on July 1, 2016. to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.



Shipping Process

Once the winning bidder pays via PayPal  and I receive notice from Skipping Stones Design I will ship your Card Set to  you. I will ship anywhere in the world!

  16. Wonderful cards Becca - glad you mentioned that men also suffer from breast cancer - few realize that amidst all the publicity, or that treatment for them is almost nil as there is virtually no research done for that, and most the treatment is based on femaile hormone levels etc.... :-(.
