We can all say that we have been deeply touched by at least one person in our lives, but for the last couple of weeks myself, Lauren and the rest of her creative team have truly been touched in more ways than one with the story of two remarkabley strong women.
Our latest “RAKlift” project involves a very special digital gal by the name of Melissa Lewis (mlewis) and her younger sister Becky. We were all inspired by this story of two amazing strong women and the journey they are facing. Melissa’s sister Becky was diagnosed with breast cancer this past spring and has recently undergone surgeries and chemo at the young age of 29.
As a digital scrapper Melissa has flooded her gallery with amazing layouts created with pictures of herself and Becky, along with the three beautiful boys they have. Melissa has also got Becky started on digital scrapbooking and we look forward to praising her work.
Here are a few of Melissa’s gorgeous layouts…
As a team, with the greatest effort, we chose to lift the spirits of both of these young women!! And what a better time than October as it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
We were all inspired by the beautiful pictures and stories on Becky’s blog and decided we would hi-jack some of her pictures and create these…
