Warrior Women Blog Hop!

Welcome !!
We are celebrating the healing journey of our dear friend, Sherry Goodloe  who's recovering from her recent surgery, and has just learned that she won't have to endure chemo or radiation! Sherry is our official Warrior Woman Muse for this hop, and is someone we all love and admire. Of course, so many of our friends and loved ones-- if not we ourselves-- have faced breast cancer, and our art is intended to honour each and every woman who has, is, or ever will fight this battle.
I made this Warrior Woman in honour of my friends who fought the battle, and are still fighting the battle. Ironically the tissue tape that I used for the spool, happened to say "admit one". I couldn't decide whether to leave it like this or alter it to another word, but decided to leave it, just because it is so true, yet not so true....



Please join in by visiting our blogs and finding some inspiration for your own art. In many cases, there's blog candy to be had for those who leave comments! If you leave a comment on here , I will pick a winner for £15.00 worth of stamps from The Artistic Stamper range :))) . I will send it all over the world. All you have to do is leave a comment.

You're welcome to dedicate your art to someone specific (or any number of special someone's), and please use the "Add a Description" field in the gallery to tell us about them. Please make sure that you mark the photo as public otherwise no-one will be able to see it!
Submissions will be accepted until October 30, and on October 31, our Warrior Woman muse, Sherry, will choose a winner who will receive an amazing prize package, courtesy of Daisy at Eclectic Paperie

I look forward to seeing what you create, and may the Warrior Women fight on!

Fabulous warrior lady for a fantastic cause and a wonderful idea. Love the idea of this blog hop as my Mother in Law faught breast cancer quite a few years ago now and won and this is such a great tribute to everyone out there fighting this battle and those that have won the battle. I will try and do something with one of those angels you gave me as I think and angel would be very apt for this occasion, I will get my thinking cap on. Have a lovely day Jennie. Tracy Evans x
