ACOT Message Board

Talking about different shapes we use in scrapbooking I thought I'd try a challenge each month with a different shape and we'll have different size requirements each month.

This month we'll be starting with an easy one and it's also my favorite to use..... the CIRCLE! I use circles quite often on my layouts and I hope you'll give this a try.

For my challenge you must use the following...
a 7" or larger circle This can be cut from paper or cardstock. It can also be a stitched or masked circle. Any medium of circle as long as it's 7" or larger.
4 or more brads or buttons. Also some of my favorite embellies!

As a Bonus I'll put your name in twice if you use TEAL as I have in each of the following layouts.
Here are a few examples of mine.

Relax the Day Away! {Uses a 9" circle.}


Dance the Night Away! {Uses a 7 1/2" circle.}

Learning To Crawl {Uses an 8" circle.}


***Please put this in the June Shape Challenge and link here as well.

You may combine this with one other June Challenge that allows you to combine.
If you combine, please list here what other challenge you used.
You may do this challenge more than 1 time.

I'll draw a random winner using Random.org from all participants for a $5 ACOT GIFT CERTIFICATE!

Hope you'll give this a try!

Wonderful work making this into a 2-pager! Beautiful photos and I love your clusters of flowers! Looks good with the circles and thanks so much for taking my challenge, Susan!

I used a circle larger than seven inches, four yellow buttons, and some teals!

This is amazing! I love your circle and the little hexagons with the button accents are a great touch! Thanks so much for taking my challenge!

Here is my LO. 7" circle, 4 snowflake brads, and even though it shows up poorly, there are shades of teal in the pp and title (they look strange in the photo). I could not get a decent picture today (pouring rain) and I had such a rough time with this LO I just wanted it done.
