HYCCT1101C Encircled With Love
Challenge Title: Encircled with Love
Hostess: Beate
Keyword: HYCCT1101C
Date: Saturday, October 1st, 2011
Everyone knows someone that battles or has battled breast cancer. While we can't do much about that yet, we can help friends and family members by encircling them with our love and support. So in that spirit, let's make a circle card.
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE HERE
View the Hope You Can Cling To Gallery HERE
View the Hope You Can Cling To Master Challenge Thread HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. All Hope You Can Cling To Challenge Entries must be uploaded to the Hope You Can Cling To Gallery, with the specific challenge keyword, no later than November 7th, 2011 at 12:00 Noon Central Time to be eligible for our fabulous prizes! Post a link to your entry in this thread.
2. You may not combine challenges, but you are welcome to create multiple cards for each challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.
4. Please package all challenge entries with an envelope, protected with a clear plastic bag and mail them to our partner at the UT MD Anderson Cancer Center to benefit patients being treated for breast cancer and their family. We would like for them to receive cards throughout the month of October, but we understand if you'd like to mail all your cards at once.
5. Since these cards will be used by visitors for patients, most should be blank inside, but feel free to send cards with messages of hope for the patients in addition to your challenge cards!

(Please note - because MD Anderson is part of the State of Texas, they ask that no religious sentiments be used on cards sent to the Cancer Center)

How did I ever end up with two pads of BG Euphoria, :rolleyes:. This month should be an opportunity to use some up, starting with this Circle Note. |

I think this is the first round card I've ever made. How do people make them so their not flat on top? I'm concerned mine looks kind of silly (with the flat top... the rest is good.  )

Well now, THAT makes sense!! Oh well, next time I guess I'll have to try that. For now, my round card has a flat top. Here's my card... Simply Amazing__________________ ~Holly"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" Philippians 4:4 come visit My Gallery |

Yes, circle cards are tricky. This was a real challenge for me, but I met it!
Here is my Special in the round card.
Sure wish I could keep up with these challenges all month, but I know I won't be able to. I'll enjoy looking at all the lovely cards in the gallery though. __________________

This challenge was a little tougher for me. Rather than try to figure out how to cut a hinged circle I hinged my card with a brad. Here's a picture of it hinged open to show the stamping on the inside:
