Chris' Kit - Breast Cancer Awareness







Chris' Kit is now on sale. For the rest of this month all net proceeds from all sales on our website will go to the Susan Komen for the Cure in Chris Hertel's name. To help raise breast cancer awareness we are offering a pink kit in honor of Chris.

Chris was a dear friend and colleague with Creative Charms. She was our designer for the catalog and packaging. Last July Chris lost her battle with breast cancer. She left behind a loving and dedicated husband and two fabulous children along with two her dogs. Her family was her joy and inspiration. The net proceeds from this kit will go to the Susan Komen for the Cure to help find a cure for this terrible disease so that no other families will lose their wives and mothers (Chris' wish).

CHA Sneak Peek #4

Hi, Chris here with a CHA sneak peek. This kit will be available in October for Breast Cancer Awareness month. It's lovely and pink and sparkly! What more could a girl want?

With this kit, I did a layout about my daughter. I went ahead and scrapped the not so perfect photos. She still looks adorable! (if I do say so myself)

Here, in the close up, I combined the pink flared flowers with a hot pink gem brad. It was easy to do. Just take a craft knife and position it in the middle of the flower, and poke through. Make sure you are poking through on a craft mat or similar surface. Slip the brad through the opening and you have a completely different look! I also bent the petals to give it more dimension. Such a fun way to use the two together.

I also used the gorgeous sequined flowers to go with the "cluster". I created another cluster in the corner with the pink sequined flowers. I love creating clusters!

I also used the pink gem brads on the butterflies. Using a die cut machine or punch, cut a butterfly out of cardstock, then embellish it with the brad. To add even more sparkle, I added a bit of glitter glue around the butterfly edges.

The final fun little detail I added was using one of my favorite Creative Charms products, the gradient gems. I think I use them on every layout I make! They come in a variety of sizes and colors, so I always have the perfect one!

Here I used it as an accent for the "dot" on the letter "i". Instead of just using the dot, I used the asterisk mark, then added the pink gradient gem to make it look like a little flower.

I hope you enjoyed seeing how I used these pink products on my layout.
