A Card drive for Elise and some Blog Candy
Hi all,I do have some cards to show you tomorrow,but first I have some sad news about one of our fellow bloggers.Elise from Paper Love Affair has just recently been diagnosed with breast cancer,she wasn't going to say anything,but decided to post her story in the hopes of raising more awareness of this disease.What also upset me was knowing that Elise has a 4 year old son,my youngest is 4 1/2 and as you know you do worry about your children,I just can't imagine what Elise is going through right now.Elise has a long road ahead,so I am asking all you generous crafters out there to make Elise a cheery uplifting card to help her get through this.You can read Elise's Story here and here.When Bec from Bizzy Becs heard Elise's story,she wanted to help, so she has put up this AWESOME blog candy for one lucky person.Thanks Bec,you are wonderful and so very generous.So here is what you could win

Dang it! I missed the deadline ... I am hoping I can add a link here. (Not for entry into the comp ... but just so Elise knows that someone else is thinking of her!) I just really wanted to encourage Elise! Sorry ... I am so slack ... but I only discovered the challenge on Monday! (And ... didn't read the deadline date properly!)
Please check my 18Nov post on my blog to see my card for Elise! (link below)
