You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
It's Sabrina here as your hostess this week. Despite that fact that we've had a couple of snowy mornings this week, we've also had some blue sky and sunshine, Spring is in the air and I am feeling young as I write up this challenge. The Hula Hoop patent was granted on the 5th of March 1963, so it's even older than I am :mrgreen:. Young or old, we can all have fun with today's challenge, which is simply to use circles in any way on your card.
Or of course you can simple use circles in any way that takes your fancy.
When you've circled around and made your card, upload it with the keyword WT521, and then come back and share a link here - that makes it easy for people to find your card .
If you're not sure how to add a link, here's how:
1. Open 2 windows or tabs: one for your card in the gallery, and one for this thread
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Go 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.

Ahhh! I used to be really good at hula hoop. But I tried one a couple years ago and it was a total flop. So...I think putting one or the likeness of one on a card will be much easier. I hope to have time after work or maybe tomorrow. Thanks, Sabrina.
What a great challenge! Especially, as I have a couple of panels I tried with the Watercolor Bokeh Technique laying on my craft area. Maybe this is the push I needed to do something with them!
Fun challenge, Sabrina! I remember having a hula hoop as a child. I'd probably throw something I need out of whack if I tried it today, lol. Here's my St. Patrick's Day Owl. Thanks so much for looking!
p.s. I may be late commenting. I've been having on again/off again gallery viewing problems. The great crew here is working on it...but most times, I cannot see the galleries or cards. :(

Sabrina- great challenge, thanks! I love shapes, especially ones from die cuts and punches. I used some elements from my SU friends- the medallion and circle combo with the pumpkin and greenery, along with the fancy shapes upper left and right respectively. Added my dotted coloring over the embossed woodgrain center panel- and a purple bow, and the dc gold and white bow Here's Circles and Ovals
