Default LSC221 - Circle of Life

LSC221 – Circle of Life

Siiiiiimmmmmmbaaaaaaa!!! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!!) Anyway, today’s challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to think CIRCULAR . . . circle-shaped cards, images stamped in a circle, punched circles, stamped circles . . . even primas (which are circular, right??). Just think round, baby!

Where is the limitation?? This is the tricky part, you may only use ONE stamp set (images, backgrounds, and sentiments must all come from the same set). That’s pretty much it!! I got a little carried away on one of my cards as far as supplies (Nesties, punches, ribbon and embossing), but I figure if ya got it, it’s hard NOT to use it.

(And I posted a bit early since my daughter is having a sleepover birthday party and I have a house FULL of teenage estrogen!!)

Here is my sample:

Pocket Friends

Ring Around the Rose

Keyword: LSC221

LSC221 Gallery

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.

If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!


Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!

1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You’re done!

Default Early posting

Hey Wendy, thanks for posting so early. I wouldn't have time to stamp tomorrow morning, so this worked perfectly for me.

I cut my image into a circle, but the sentiment is long, so it had to go into an oval. It's still roundish, right? I hope the challenge police don't come after me.

Here is my Silhouette card . I hope y'all like it!

Oh - I am glad you posted early. Now I have time to cast a quick eye over my stamps before I head to work, so I can come home all ready to go.
Hope the sleepover goes/went well. Hope you get enough sleep .
And hey - guess what arrived on Wednesday - my first circle Nestabilities. Looks like they get a workout today - I hope.

Here are the favors I recently made for my brandy new grand daughter who arrives, Lord willing, in early June.

http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...5188?cat=13133

The writing says "Olivia Lou, we love you....... Lots of circles on this one, especially when you make 32 of them!!!! And Olivia Lou....well she fits right in with the CIRCLE of LIFE theme, so forgive me for uploading something I already made but it fits so well with this challenge and I am headed to Minnesota today to visit one of my daughters and son in law....and won't get time to make new circles!! Hope you like my little favor- it's made with four big shot die cuts, (2 dp, 2 cs) sticky stripped to small white bags......such a fun box to make!!

Wow! How convenient is this! The Stampin' B's DT challenge this week was to incorporate a circle (along with several other things) in our cards. Here are mine:

I can't wait to do this challenge when I get home. I'm at school in a couple of classes with seniors who are done with their work. We're playing on the computers! So I can comment on cards even though I can't make one yet.
