Challenge Title: Hang in There!
Hostess: Wanda Cullen (cullenwr)

What a special month to focus on sending some love to all the special people fighting the cancer battle! My challenge is to create a card or 3-D project with a hanging image (i.e., ornament, stocking, etc.) or a hanging element (i.e., charm). Pink isn't mandatory, but extra points if you use it!

It feels good to be caught up on all of the challenges to date! My goal is to complete them all! I mailed the first of my cards of to Houston yesterday.
This was a fun one...I knew these charms that I got on clearance would come in handy one day, lol! here is my creation (combined with today's IC also):
For today's Hope You Can Cling To Challenge, Hang in There!, I used my mini stamps from Stampin Up- a heart, a duck, a leaf, and a pumpkin, stamped on DC tags from Fiskars, sewn with embroidery floss to a DC mat by Kimemories. I put a DC figure of a lady sewing to the right, and a little square of muslin backed swirly material for an accent. The Ribbon is from American Crafts.
Have a great weekend! Here's my card:
This was a really fun challenge and got me to try something new. I made a rotating cutout for HYCCT1108. The center label rotates to show a greeting or a stamped image held in place with embroidery floss. It was something I had seen, but never done. I'm sending five of these cards. Thanks, Debby

Sorry Wanda, but this is the first challenge I've missed. I just couldn't get my brain around a concept for a card with something hanging. I have a few bits of ideas, but they haven't come together. I'll try to catch up later in the month, ok? I'm going to miss a whole bunch in the middle of the month and don't know if I'll be able to catch up with them all by the deadline (Nov. 7th?).
I sure am enjoying all the challenges and the beautiful cards in the galleries though.
