Just STOP!!

I wanted a subject line that would grab you.  October is Domestic Violence Awareness month, most people don't know that.  Purple is the color of Domestic Violence Awareness, so I wanted to make a purple card and participate in The Hop to Stop.  We have to stop ignoring this epidemic and help not only protect and rescue the victims, but punish the guilty.  I borrowed these statistics from the Hop page:

1 in 3 women will experience domestic violence over the course of their lifetimes. That's 33% of all the women you meet.  And yet, it's something that is rarely talked about in public. It's something that's hidden and hushed. But since papercrafters are some of the most amazing people out there, some of you have agreed to make a card (or cards) during the course of this hop to raise awareness for this issue. Together, we CAN make a powerful impact. 



Just a few linkups:


Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Laters!!!
