November 2025 Card Chain Challenge Reveal

Hey crafty friends - it time to share cards that went around the world for the November Card Chain Challenge. Twenty-five people participated & you can see the full reveal HERE. My card went to the amazing Jo (Jo Blogs) in the UK. Jo & Gail (Crafty Nomad) handle the administration at the CCC & do an excellent job, I might add!


Supplies: Paper - Neenah Classic Crest Solar White;
BoBunny Dotted; Lawn Fawn Let's Polka;
Recollections Jewel Toned Inks;
Spellbinders A2 card
Stamps - Hero Arts Wild Columbine (sentiment) & 
Dies - Hero Arts Morning Glory;
My Favorite Things Blueprints 23
Other - Copic Markers, SSS Starshine Dots

We had the following options for making our cards:

Color Palette Option

Sketch Option


Theme Options: Feathers / Vintage / Friendship
 
Product / Technique Options: Buttons / Abstract

I used the colors, the sketch & the theme of friendship. I was getting supplies ready for Thanksgiving cards and decided to put a trio of pumpkins in place of the circles on the sketch. Interesting in the November color palette, aren't they? They needed some vines, I thought, so I die cut a morning glory and trimmed bits of vines off of it. Added them here & there around the pumpkins. Stamped a sentiment strip & added it, plus some dots - done! The red looks orange in the photo but it matches the ruby palette better in real life!!

Sweet Chris from IL sent me the card below - I just love her arched pop-up frame for the beautiful cardinal - such dimension! Thanks, Chris!!


If you want to participate for the December chain, go HERE for details by Dec. 6th. It's so easy & fun - just make and send one card!

That's it for today. Thanks for visiting and happy crafting!!
