Circle Calling Card

Good Evening Blogging Friends.
I just returned from the 
pre-Circle Crop dinner.  About 24 gals from around Northern California met for dinner to celebrate finally having a Cricut Circle Meet-up in our area.  We're expecting 60+ Circlets tomorrow.
Tomorrow we'll be exchanging calling cards.
I just know that many of them will be super fantastic, but I went for simple so that I had time to finish all my other projects.  The back of the card has my messageboard name, email and blog addy.  I can't wait to exchange cards with my new Circle friends and begin visiting their blogs for wonderful inspiration.
I must get to bed.  I have an hour's drive in the morning to help set up for the crop.  It should be a fun, fun day and I'll have some exciting news to share on Monday.  Until then, have a wonderful weekend.

Oh, one more thing.  If you're having problems leaving comments (a Blogger issue that manifests itself in several different ways lately), I received this hint in one of my post's comments -
When you sign in, do not check the "keep my signed in box" and after you've typed your username and password, hold down the Control key before clicking to sign in.  Then, back at the comment window, hold the Control key again while clicking "post comment".  It worked for me, but I sure hope Blogger gets these silly kinks worked out.

Hugs and Happy Crafting,

Think Pink #2

     Here's another Breast Cancer Awareness card.  I just pictured the ribbon as the "O" in "HOPE" and went from there.  It's not often that the finished card actually matches the picture in my head, but this one came pretty close - woohoo!! 
     Tomorrow is chemo day for my sister-in-law.  I'm her chemo buddy and we'll be gone most of the day so I don't know if I'll have a new post ready.  I always take my Gypsy with me.  She loves exploring all the cartridges and then, when she gets tired, I start working on my challenge cards.
     This is a standard A2 card.  I used Mini Monograms for the scalloped squares and Lyrical Letters for HOPE, cut twice and then offset.  I also used a Martha Stewart border punch.  Foam squares added the extra dimension to the scalloped squares.



Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs and Happy Crafting,
Larelyn
