Looking for a fun way to promote Breast Cancer Awareness? How about making this DIY  Bra purse ? Check out the Orginal bra purse we created here.  You can use discount new bras or recycled bras too.  Old bra’s might be a fun way to memorialize the loss of breasts by turning your old bra into a purse.

  1. I love that awareness for BC but does anyone realize that September is Childhood cancer month?? I just wish that more folks would be aware of that and help. My 6 year old daughter is a cancer survivor, dx at the age of 3. Childhood cancer does not receieve the funding that adult cancers do which is why so many of our children will die from cancer.

  2. You realise it’s still SEPTEMBER? I’m all for breast cancer awareness and all, but how about some Childhood cancer love? Childhood cancer kills more children than any other disease. Sept. is chilhood cancer awareness month and they need all the support and awareness they can get. Consider eating at Chili’s restaurant today (monday sept 27th) all their procedes today will go to St Jude Research Hospital to fund research for childhood cancer.

    My neice who’s four years old, has been fighting neuroblastoma, a form of childhood cancer, since she was just 13 months old. We need to cure this, for the 40,000 children fighting.

  3. Emily and Dana, thank you for the information regarding Childhood Cancer Month. We would be happy to post any scrapbooking or crafting related awareness projects on the blog. Feel free to send any such information to me at scrapbooking “at” craftgossip.com or use our Send Us Gossip form.

    Lisa’s project was highlighted here because she plans on showcasing “pink crafts” during the month of October. We wanted readers to be aware of her plans before the new month started in order to be prepared to follow along.

    Thanks again!
    Francine

Disney Themed Halloween Mini Scrapbook Album

Inessa combine two of my favorite things, Disney and Halloween, in this adorable mini scrapbook album! She combined Classic Mouse and Halloween Boo collections from Simple Stories for this fun 4″ x 6″ album project. I love the bright and bold colors and Halloween patterns with touches of Mickey and Minnie sprinkled through out. The cover has stitched polka dot pattern papers, a colorful title, cute Mickey die, enamel gems and tiny star embellishments.

Inside is lots of space for journaling and adding photos and some pages even have tabs on the sides and fun shapes or tags along the top, sticking out from the pages for added interest.

There’s also flaps for interactive elements. I love the mouse ears along the edge of this flap with the sentiment inside and the photos hidden underneath, so fun!

Visit the Simple Stories blog to check out the rest of the album pages and learn more about how the project was put together.
