Just a Little Note
Hi, All - Deborah here....
I want to express my deep gratitude to Gail and Jo for all of their hard work on keeping the CCC going while I was out of commission. The three of us are going to jointly manage the CCC from it's new home here - which is such a blessing to me!
The 2017 Options page will be ready soon so you can work ahead if you want to.
Thanks for stopping and have a blessed day!
Deborah
P.S. I don't want to clutter this blog with personal matters; you can read about why I've been MIA here.

Welcome
Hello and welcome to the Card Chain Challenge. This is the brainchild of Deborah Nolan and she has run this card exchange very successfully for many years from her blog, Society of Stampaholics. Deborah been dealing with some health issues over the last few months that have
prevented her from doing much here in blogland. CCC was temporarily hosted by Gail on her blog Crafty Nomad for a couple of months at the end of 2016. But this wonderful idea deserves it's own corner of blogland so here it is, at least for the time being. Who knows what the future may hold......
We would like to welcome old friends and new and hope that we can continue to spread love around the globe, one handmade card at a time. We also wish Deborah a speedy recovery and we look forward to you taking up the reins again soon.
If you are interested in being a link in this awesome chain please check the FAQ's page for details and we hope you feel like joining the fun.
