TLC193 - I knew the moment I saw Lynn's samples for this challenge that I HAD to make one (special thanks to Becca Stamps for her creative genius!!)! I went to THREE different craft stores yesterday trying to find a corner punch that would work for this! All of my corners punches are WAY old school . . . the kind with the paper guide built into the inside of the punch . . . no way to remove it at all! I made many attempts at trying to do this with a regular ol' punch with no success . . .
I can't seem to break myself away from these fall color combos . . . LOVE 'em! I go through SO much chocolate chip cardstock this time of year!! And this is the greatest use of Nestatbilities! I will definitely be trying this again!!
Thanks for lookin'!!

I'm really loving these circle-medallion cards, and the paper is one of my current favorites. I also like the way you used the partial piece of the embossed background -- it's so easy to get stuck on thinking of those embossing folders to be used with the full design.
