You Are My Sunshine Tic Tac Toe Challenge #tttc075

July 30, 2020

It's time for a new challenge at the Tic Tac Toe Challenge!

We hope you will play along with our new board!

My card is created using the bottom row: Pool, Die cut, Sun!

I created a watercolored panel using distress inks. I cut the background with a Swoosh Cover Panel from Reverse Confetti. The little elephant was created using the Neat & Tangled Beach Day stamp set. I colored him with Copic Markers and added Wink of Stella for shine. The sentiment is from the same set. The sun is created using a watercolored panel and sun die. I added some clear Nuvo drops to look like water.

Please stop by and see all the fabulous cards by the Design Team. There is so much inspiration!

We hope you will play along with us this week!

Leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.

HUGS!

My card was very easy to create. I opened a fun paper pad and choose three papers that were bright and coordinated to create the background. I cut a white rectangle for my sentiment. I used textured white paper. I stamped the sentiment using the Casual Friday's "Frankly" stamp set. I added enamel dots for fun! I am sending this to a friend that just finished chemo. I hope it makes her smile!

To The Birthday Girl Paper Players Challenge PP501

July 26, 2020

It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!

The fabulous Anne Marie is our hostess this week and she has a great sketch challenge for all of us! We can't wait to see what you create!

My card is created for my niece. She really is a princess! She was supposed to be in the Miss Indiana pageant this summer but, it was postponed because of Covid.

I used a pink background and a matching striped pattern to create the background. I cut the white panel with a scalloped die and stenciled distress ink for the polka dots. The MFT PI Birthday Girl stamp set was used for my image. I colored her with Copic Markers and added Wink of Stella for shine. I also stamped her dress on the same striped paper and paper pieced the dress to match the background. The matching die was used to cut out the girl and the crown. The sentiment is stamped on the same pink paper in black. It is from the same stamp set.

Create a new paper-craft project specifically for this challenge.
