Circle-A-Thon

Card 1
  
Card 2 

If you follow my blog you know my obsession with Hexagon-A-Thon.  Erin at Schlosser Designs is furthering feeding my obsession by release a new A-Thon set with circles.  Although I wasn't feeling well I had to play with this new set that is being released on November 3rd.  I made 2 cards.  For card one I weave Washi Tapes to make a grid/plaid background.  I added a bow and the circle is the new set.  It is acutally 3 stamps...I love all the layering possibilities.  The second card I created a gradient background using a leaf image and added some sequence ribbon.  The focal point is another layering adventure with Circle-A-Thon.  The very center is the circle that coordinates with the leaf image used to make the background.  I added 3 layers of Extra Thick Embossing powder to the very center to create my own epoxy embellishment.  The photo of the second card didn't turn out very well, since I had to take it at night. Maybe I will have to redo the card photo shoot.

Here is a close up of the epoxy embellishment.


There will be a blog hop on November 3rd showcasing the new sets being released.  Check out another peek HERE on the SD blog.
