FRIENDSHIP PAGES

These are FRIENDSHIP PAGES I made my SWAP PARTNER in IRELAND back in OCTOBER.  Somehow it got saved as a draft probably because I was waiting until my partner recieved them.  Didn't want to spoil the surprise in case she seen them here.  So they were just sitting there in draft when I noticed them tonight.
This was my first time making friendship pages.  They are 6 x 6" double sided (side by side) pages (so a total of 4 pages).

The challenge for the friendship pages being the month of OCTOBER was to incorporate pink for the theme BREAST CANCER AWARENESS month.  So the pages had to be pink & support the cause in some way by making a purchase of ribbon or something that can be incorporated into the pages.

I USED SOFT PINK COLORED & PATTERNED PAPERS THAT REFLECTED THE COLORS USED IN THE

THINK PINK CAMPAIGN

FOR THE FIRST TWO SIDE BY SIDE PAGES.

THE WHITE SCALLOP TAG WITH THE DAZZLING PINK BLING BRA ATTACHED IS ANOTHER PROJECT YOU'LL FIND ON MY BLOG HERE

  My partner lives in IRELAND so I asked her if there is anything she would like me to add to her package - anything she had a hard time finding over there. Her favorite colors I found out was purple & red & she likes bling. 

Instead of purchasing ribbon I purchased a cotton braided bracelet for the cause & turned it into a pull out page with a surprise (the bracelet in her favorite colors purple & red - the bracelet was a cancer awareness campain item I found @ a local shop in the mall) I also included some BLING & tucked it into the bracelet.  Looks like I forgot to take a pic of the bracelet.  I added small packs of  purple rhinestones & some red rhinestone flowers in two sizes. One of the floweres in probably 1 1/2" in diameter so that's some pretty good bling. I also added extra paper pages etc in red & purple for her taste. 

I stamped off a bunch of fairies & other Irish themed stamps I have so she can use them in her cards. Just forgot to take a picture of that too!

I chose to included an extra little goodie in her friendship pages that was a project that I posted about previously HERE It's a large boc of  PINK TIC TACS that I made a little cover for.  I made a similar one using the smaller regular size TIC TACS @ a CHRISTMAS Craft Workshop I attended last year.
