Love yourself

CABBIE says, KAYA!

I was inspired by Bjay's "Love yourself" layout in commemoration of breast cancer awareness this October. I used her title but with a photo of myself, i think that we as women of the new decade should be aware of how and what breast cancer is and how early detection can make a difference for us.

i incorporated some patterns of the haliotis specie (abalone) as part of my doodling. well, nothing significant about it. i just want to divert and explore possibilities instead of using flowers. the eyes-like design on the middle part if you look closely, would suggest awareness ( i had written the word aware all over those eyes-like patterns).

the symbol of the breast awareness ribbon takes a strong place here. it symbolizes what my layout is all about.

Journaling:

breast cancer can affect anyone...it doesn't choose... it doesn't care
let the world be aware that this condition seeks those who doesn't care...

Materials used:

dcwv cardstocks
lyra watercolor pencils
crayola and whispers markers
zig sketch black pen

Techniques used:
doodling
