October Card Chain Challenge reveal

This is the second time I paricipate in The Card Chain Challenge - anyone can enter as long as you are willing to snail mail a card to a fellow crafter. For October there were 27 pariticipants across the world. If you'd like to join in for the November challenge, you can sign up here until til 6th. 

THE CARD I SENT

I sent my card to  Joanne of Ambrosia and Iron in the UK, along with some images and sentiments from the stamp set I used, the Altenew Tall Tale stamp set. For my card I followed the sketch, I placed it upside down to fit on the bookshelf..

THE CARD I RECEIVED

I recieved this sweet card and some die cuts (thank you!) from Suze of craftysuze in New Zealand. I'm a cat lover, so this is a suitable card for me.
