Card Chain Challenge Reveal - June 2023

The One Where Jo Dropped The Ball...

Seriously, I totally missed that yesterday was the second of the month and therefore Card Chain Challenge Reveal Day. Little wonder that the adorable Gail was messaging me on Facebook this morning to see if I was ok. Thanks, Gail, you're such a star!

We had a truly impressive 36 participants who exchanged cards across the globe this month, and we even welcomed two new players to our friendly little community.
 
Total number of cards exchanged thus far by Card Chain Challenge participants is 4,041. Isn't that just extraordinary? 
 
All the cards exchanged this month used at least one of the following options:


Colour Palette Option


or

Sketch Option


or 

Theme Options: Vintage/Wheels/Friendship

or 

Product/Technique Options: Lace/Shaped card

I sent my simple CAS creation to the lovely Mia in Greece...


And just look what Hilary in the UK sent me...


Such a pretty card that looks even lovelier IRL. Thanks so much, Hilary.

If you'd like to play along with this fab challenge our July Sign-Up is still open here. I hope you come and join the fun.

I love your CAS card, such a great image too. Life sometimes runs away with us so I know the feeling when you have missed something. I did notice that Gail was working on the post very late on the 1st too. I am late visiting because life ran away with me for a few days. I am so glad you like my card xx
