this is my card for today's ways to use it challenge. Toni wants us to use newsprint. I have to admit that I have never done this before, but I wanted to give it a try.
I am also using this in the hope you can cling to challenge "hycct1121".
Bar is the hostes for this challenge and she wanted us to use different sizes of geometric shapes. The mojomonday sketch was a perfect one for this challenge.
I found this news article on breast cancer and cut it out for the wt347 challenge. It even had a little color in the newsprint.
I pulled out my spellbinders circles, my su oval punches and I cut the rectangle myself for the hycct challenge.
My patterned paper is from American Crafts. My sentiment is from Stampin-Up's "because I care" set.
The felt flower is from Pebbles. I added some brown pearls to the corners and the sentiment panel to complete my card.
ETA: I added some butterflies to give a more balanced look to my card.

Great card! Fantastic use of the np; it is sooooo cool for the focus of your card. I like the sketch. Nice touch adding the butterflies. I read somewhere that they represent "hope."
