Day of the Month Card Club - Look for Circles Day

Hi Everyone,

welcome our ninth Day of the Month Card Club challenge!

This month we are celebrating the national

"Look for Circles Day"

For more detail on this day go visit our challenge blog.

We also have a Guest Designer with us - I am sure you all know her - it's Coni Longley from Which Craft?, who was voted winner in challenge #7. She is immensely creative and one of the best commentors I know. It's always a delight to read her comments, which she distributes generously on my blog and everyone else she follows! So uplifting!

Now here is my inspiration card:

I didn't want you to look too hard for circles on my card, ha ha.....

The circles I made with a MFT stencil. I did some die cutting with a MFT die and elevated the letters with fun foam.

Not too tedious to make and I love the way this looks.

I am counting on you! You have until the end of the month (11/30) to do so.

Please link up HERE

This is a voting challenge - the winner will be determined by vote. Everybody can vote, even if you didn't play along. Voting starts on the first of the following month - June first.

The 3 participants with the most votes will win.

The winners will be showcased on the 5th of each month and the new challenge will start each month on the seventh.

And to make it more fun and appealing it would be great if you could comment on at least 3 other participants - perhaps you'll find some new friends that way.

There is always a reason to celebrate!

The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes.... Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
