Well, it is the start of another week, the last week actually, of October. You know what that means, I have a freebie mini kit for you! I just completed my Week 4 entry over at Scrapping FairyTales.
Here is some background behind it:
I found it a little difficult to start this particular challenge—It was hard for me to pick just the right theme to relate to Europe. I started with the Italian pizza idea, thought about doing something with the Loch Ness Monster and then started to think about Italian desserts like Cannoli’s and Tiramisu. After a few days, I changed my mind again and wanted to focus on the street café’s and bakeries that serve such yummy goodies.
When I started designing the beverages for my baked goods, I started to focus on one particular hot drink—tea which is a popular past time in Europe. After doing some research on tea, I stumbled upon some studies which showed that green tea, in particular, minimizes the risk of breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men. After I stumbled upon this discovery, I knew the direction my kit should take! Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I wanted to pay some small tribute to all of those, including me, who are affected by cancer in some way (either a survivor, a family member or friend who knows someone who suffers from this terrible disease, or you have a loved one or a friend who has passed away because of cancer). Here is Tea Time, A Tribute. (And a special toast too, “Let’s Pray for a Cure”)
Here is the preview:

Oh yes, I wanted to actually start something on my blog for this particular kit.
In the comment section of this post, I would like to see you pay tribute to those who are affected by Cancer in particular. If you are a survivor, share your message of courage, strength, inspiration, or difficulties. If you are a friend of someone, share how you have helped your friend deal with this disease. If you know someone who has died because of this terrible disease, please share a happy memory or pay tribute to them in some way. (If you want to give me ideas on colors for a full sized kit, please feel free to do that too. Lastly, I would like to design a guy version of this kit so please let me know of some colors--green tea minimizez the risk of Prostate Cancer in men according to some studies.)
