Challenge Title:Stay CENTERED Hostess: lisa lara (Lisa) Keyword: HYCCT1525 Date: October 25th, 2015
Maintaining balance isn't easy is it? Toss in Breast Cancer to the mix and ACK! So my challenge is about staying centered. Make a card by only using the center for your image, sentiment etc.

I'm looking at your samples and not quite getting it. It sounded like you wanted us to use only the center of some sort of image but your sample cards look more like you want us to use just the center of the card front. Can you clarify for me? I am very literal, I'm sorry, I know I'm a pain in the back end!

Lisa- great challenge! I went with a nice sentiment from SU- along with a stylish girl image from Stamping Bella. Added a cool embossed background, inked and colored. Put a Halloween style sticker and pumpkin themed dp behind my sentiment. Here's HYCCT1525 My Friends

Hi Robin, wherever your mind takes you with this theme is of course A okay. My original thought was to use only the center of your card. Hope that helps.

This challenge helped me to figure out a design I had planned last year around this time but never achieved. Happy to have the opportunity to fix that!
I am a little behind, but I loved the idea of this challenge so much, Lisa. In honor of your love of bright colors I used some DSP with a little zing to it. The center is actually cut out with the sentiment panel behind it, the scalloped edge on top to finish it off. The colored panels are stamped twice and fussy cut, lifted up on dimensionals.
