I really LOVE GinaK's new Stamps for a Cause set - How Sweet It Is!
I copied and pasted this from Gina's How Sweet It Is page:
"$7.00 of every stamp set will be divided equally between the American Diabetes Association and the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, two organizations that are working on research to find better ways to treat diabetes and hopefully will some day find a cure."
How cool is that? And the fact that the set is extremely versatile (you can use it for so many things all year round!) makes it a mus-buy in my opinion!
You can purchase it either unmounted (on EZmount foam) or wood-mounted HERE.
This first card I made with this set uses the flower image - I stamped it then colored it in with Copic Markers.
The sentiment is from GinaK's Rectangle Greetings set (you get this FREE when you order 3 or more stamp sets in January - more details are here) and I stamped it onto celery (Stampin' Up!) card stock then punched it out with my Marvy Extra Jumbo (yellow) scalloped rectangle punch.
The yellow card stock is Bazzill (from the Doodlebug line - that is my absolute favorite line of all Bazzill CS - I love the texture and the colors!) and I finished off the card with a pink button that I threaded the May Arts ribbon through and tied off to hold in place.

This is my favorite image from this set - I stamped and colored it in with Copic Markers then punched it out with my Marvy Mega Scalloped Circle Punch and sponged the edges with Chocolate Chip (SU!) ink.
The sentiment was stamped onto a scrap of Soft Sky (SU!) CS then trimmed and the edges were rounded using a circle punch.
And see I used some of my new ribbon!
The punched Giga circle is again Bazzill DoodleBug CS.
