why: this posting shares my newest owner/DT contributions for HQFSCAT or Heart's Quest For Shaped Cards and Tags challenges blog. #8 continues with anything goes on a shaped card or shaped tag theme. The only shape not allowed is a standard 4 straight 90 degree corners rectangle. Variations are accepted. Fun/fancy fold (dimensional cards) are welcome along with ovals, rounds, hearts, squares, stars, trees, pumpkins, birds, etc. This time I've prepared 2 gift tags!
