rubberFUNatics Weekly Challenge #388

 Good Morning, Stampers!

(click photo to enlarge)

There’s something wonderfully freeing about taking a simple shape and letting it bloom into something unexpected. This week’s rubberFUNatics Weekly Challenge is all about Fun With Shapes, and I'm spotlighting one of the most versatile shapes in the craft garden: a simple circle.

Circles are everywhere in paper crafting — layers, windows, focal points, shaker frames — but today I'm giving it a fresh twist. With the card on the right, I took a circle from the Spotlight on Nature dies and cut it directly into the designer paper and simply popped it up with Stampin' Dimensionals and added a sentiment. With the card on the left, I die cut the circle and then sliced the circle up into strips and popped the pieces up with Stampin' Dimensionals and finished it off with a sentiment. I love how simple these cards are and these gorgeous Scenic Coast designer papers worked perfectly!
