THINK PINK Candy

THIS CANDY HAS NOW CLOSED. THE WINNER HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED HERE.

It affects old as well as young, women as well as men, rich as well as poor…
Cancer. The dreaded C word. 
Most of us probably personally know someone who has been affected.
In my case it was a very close relative who 9 years ago was diagnosed with breast cancer. She went through chemo and radiation and she also had the mastectomy. She fought hard and she won.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and here on the LLC Blog we wanted to do our part to increase awareness of the disease by creating in PINK. As most of you know, the Pink Ribbon is the international symbol of breast cancer awareness.
  I’ve also gathered pink products from the store and put together this candy, “Think Pink”.
Whilst "Think Pink" is about raising awareness and showing support for those affected, it's also a way to remember and to honour the memory of loved ones who lost the battle against cancer.
The THINK PINK candy contains:
Pink Butterfly, Studio of Memories 12x12, Pion Design
Ocean of Roses, Studio of Memories 12x12, Pion Design
Small Leaves, Studio of Memories 12x12, Pion Design

  47. Thanks for putting together this pink candy and focus on the breast cancer. My mother got it almost 13 years ago and had to do a mastectomy too and did a re-construction some years later (of skin and fat from her stomach). She is enjoying her life. 2 of my neighbors have just won the fight and a 2 friends of mine a few years ago. It is a wake up call for all us women to take good care ourselves and do a regularly check.

    Take care
    :-) Nina
