October 2026 Card Chain Challenge Reveal

 Today's the day all the cards sent world wide for the October Card Chain Challenge are revealed over at the blog.  Twenty nine cards were exchanged.

For October, I sent my card to Arlene in California and I received a lovely card from Linda in Michigan!

We are given design suggestions to help us get creative.   You only have to use one of the suggestions or you can combine as many as you like!

This month I used the suggested colors and one of the theme options - Fall.


And here's my card.

I created the circle using an acetate circle mask from Lavinia.  I sponged inside the circle with Ranger Distress Inks - Speckled Egg and Abandoned Coral.    Then I stamped the cabin stamp from Stamp Scapes using Portabello - Versafine Clair Ink.   I stamped and die cut the sentiment from Taylored Expressions and popped it up on foam dots beneath the image.  

I cut the white panel to 4" x 5 1/4" and layered it over an A2 white card base.
