Hope You Can Cling To-Day 1

It is October and time for Hope You Can Cling To (HYCCT) 2014! 
I think I have made 2 cards since last year's HYCCT.  It kind of feels foreign to make cards again, but I have been enjoying it. 
Day one had 3 challenges. 


Day 1-Challenge 1-You Raise  Me Up Challenge. 

There was a video tutorial explain how to do Paper Tole.  Since, I haven't been around card making lately this was new to me.  I chose an image that would be simple and few layers for my first try.  It is kind of fun! 
Here is a link to the Split Coast Stampers Thread HYCCT1401A

 

The Teddy Bear image is from Rubber Stampede, Inc.  I have had this stamp for many years. 

 

 

Day 1-Challenge B-Shine On!

This challenge is to use a light to convey hope.

The lamp image is from the stamp set Decorative Lamps from Hero Arts.  The paper I used are scraps.  The alphabet is Sizzix Bozo Font.  Can you tell I haven't bought supplies in years?  LOL

 

 

 

Day 1-Challenge C-Hold On To Your Hope

 

This challenge is to include something on your card that you can hold on to.

The teapot image is from Basic Grey. The paper ribbon, buttons and paper are scraps. 

 

That's all for day 1--See you later!
