My HAOOCAYR #29 August 2025 design team projects

 Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog!

why: This posting shares a couple of design team project contributions to online artisan blogger friend Deanne's challenge blog HAOOCAYR or Halloween and other occasions crafts all year round. This is her 29th monthly challenge so she's almost had this challenge blog going for 2.5 years!!! She has 2 main monthly themes (Halloween and Birthday) and then offers usually 2 optional themes each month. August's options are family and/or romance. I'm choosing to do BIRTHDAY and optional theme of family/home-love. 

when: HAOOCAYR #29 starts August 1, 2025 and stays open all month.
