CCEE1227 - Three Circles

I'm the hostess for the month of July over on the CCEE challenge blog.  For my first challenge of the month, I asked the team members to make a card using three circles anywhere on their cards.  It's not exactly a sketch challenge, but you should find at least three circles on everyone's cards -- plain circles, scallop circles, whatever!

For my card I made an circle easel card.   Masculine cards are not always easy, but this image from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company (from a set called Island Life) made it relatively simple.  I had made easel cards before, but most of them were either square or rectangular.  This might have been the first round one I made.  Because I wanted it to be a masculine card, I didn't put much in the way of embellishments on it -- just the brad holding the easel up.  I don't know if you can see it, but I pierced around the outside circle -- using a piece of plastic canvas as my template.

We'd love for you to play along with the blog team.  Just make a card using at least three circles and post it to the CCEE blog.
