pretty in peach

Hi everyone
Hope your all fine and dandy this wet autumn day.  Me thinks winter is just around the corner as there's a right nip in the air too and we have had a bit of frost in the mornings.  EEEEEEEk I hate the cold!!!
Anyway todays card is for one of my regular customers.  One of her friends, a young girl, is fighting uterine cancer and will celebrate a year free later this month with a party.  Now is that a fighting spirit or what?


papers - Polka Doodles
ribbon, button and pearls - stash
sentiments - made on pc

My first thoughts were Krista's ribbon images but she wanted the image to have long flowing blonde hair so as they both have short hair I went with this lovely lady instead.  
Did you know there are different coloured ribbons for different cancers?  I'm ashamed to say I didn't but after visiting google and doing a bit of research it seems the colour for uterine cancer is peach, hence a peach card.
Here's  wishing Julie many more celebratory parties:)
