Hi, Linda here with your Ways to use it challenge this week. We as stampers are always using different shapes when we are making our cards. We all have the one favorite shape we go to the most often. I love the shape of the oval. Some things that come to mind are picture frames(especially vintage), eggs, eyes, footballs etc. This week we are going to put the oval in the spotlight. You can use stamps, dies, punches etc. Use your imagination and have fun!!!!!
Remember to use the keyword WT515 when uploading your card.
Thanks to Lisa and Sabrina for their added inspiration.

Here's mine, but seeing your lovely card, Linda, makes me want to revisit punch-art penguin I devised some years ago, and see if I can improve on him now I have more supplies. WT515 Blackbird Singing...

I agre I Love ovals as well. Was going to do a small sentiment on the bottom with a couple too, but didnt find a sentiment I wanted to use that would fit, so putting on inside...Here is my " Daisies for Wendy "

This card came together easily (after searching thru my paper folders for the oval cutout!). Thankfully, I don't need this card at this time (had enough right before the holidays). So into my stash it goes. TFL!
