Do you consider yourself a warrior? If not, change that perception because you are. Being a woman in all that you do and who you are makes you a warrior in my book.
We are fighters... real women in the midst of a battle for our families, friends, children, loved ones, homes, careers, health, finances, and sanity. Isn't it true?
Martha Stewart and Ford are recognizing Warriors in Pink in honor of breast cancer awareness month. They've created a new stamp set, Symbols of the Warrior, that was featured on "The Martha Stewart Show" yesterday. 100% of net proceeds go to support the Susan G. Komen Foundation throughout the entire year. It's a perfect gift for someone special. With the holidays coming, I'm thrilled to have two sets to giveaway.
Keep reading for details on how to win and some great scrapbooking and stamping projects inspired by the Martha Stewart team...
