Hello everyone! Today I would like to share about a fun card challenge and swap community where I met lots of crafty friends from around the world.
It is called the Card Chain Challenge. It is not a regular card challenge, it is a place where you can meet new crafty friends, make a card base of the given options, and send it to a friend.
Yes…This is an international card that challenge for us to not only make a card but actually send it out! And I have been participating with this card swap for since 2013. It is about 7ish year now!!! I was not always join every month, but I joined several times every year. If you want to see my first card, you can go here.
Blog Hop and Giveaway
Today, they are having a special blog hop party to celebrate the 3000th Sender! Yes there are 3,000 cards have sent out around the globe!!! The hop starts at Card Chain Challenge post and you can hop over to the each of sender’s posts, leave a little love and they will be randomly selecting 3 comments left between today and the 28th June to win some prizes.
I hope you will pay a visit to Card Chain Challenge Blog and participate for the CCC June Challenge. You will love it! There is a joy in the making and sending the card to someone.
Here’s my card that I sent to my friend in Netherland for the CCC May Challenge:
I picked the May Theme Options: Repeat (more than one of something)/ Fruit / Friendship. I made CAS card with this theme.
I stamped the circles from the Preciouse Remembrance – Little Things Stamp Set repatedly with VersaFine Clair ink pads in rainbow colors. And I stamped the sentiment from the Preciouse Remembrance – Positive Thoughts Stamp Set with VersaFine Clair Nocture ink pad. I added the heart (from the Bits & Pieces : Love Coupon) in the middle of one of the circle using 3D foam tape.
Thats my card today. I hope it gives you an inspiration to join us at the next monthly Card Chain Challenge!
Thank you for stoping by my blog today and I hope you all have wonderful day.

Pretty card! Love the circle designs and the colors you used!
Your card made me think of the Olympics circles. I quite like the colors and simplicity. Sad, that the Olympics are cancelled, I think.
So cute with the circle design.
Super cute card, Helen!
Clever design Helen. I love the multi-coloured circles.
Fabulous CAS card Helen, love the clean and stylish look and the little detail of the raised heart!
