Hope This Makes You Smile Tic Tac Toe Challenge #tttc059

April 9, 2020

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

We hope you will play along!

My card is created using the Middle Row: Inspiring Sentiment, Orange and Flowers.

I found a fun sheet of flowered patterned paper in my stash so, I selected it for my background. It had a lot of orange in it so, the orange polka dots were a fun combination. I stamped the inspiring sentiment in black ink. The flowers are die cut using the MFT Stitched Bloom Dies. A few enamel dots were added to complete my card.

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!

HUGS!

My card is created on a white card base. I added a turquoise layer on top of the base. I found this piece of Zoo themed paper in my stash. I cut it to match the sketch. The sunbursts are cut in white and turquoise. I added the sentiment to the top of the white one. The elephant and palm leaves are from Lawn Fawn's Critters in the Jungle stamp set. I stamped them in black and colored them with Copic Markers. I cut them out with the matching dies. Wink of Stella was added for shine. I also added three orange enamel dots to complete the card.

Happiest of Birthdays To You! Paper Players PP484

March 29, 2020

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

I hope all of you are staying home and your families are healthy. This is such a difficult time for all of us. I am praying for an end to this horrible virus. Sending love and virtual hugs to all of you!

The amazing Joanne is our hostess this week. Since it is the fifth week of the month, we are going to play Tic Tac Toe. I love when we have an extra week and we get to play TTT. It always amazes me the amount of creativity that comes out of the board.

My card is created using the right column? Patterned Paper, Birthday and Flowers

My card is created on a white card base. I smooshed a watercolor background using Distress inks. I used my favorite dies by MFT Stitched Blooms for the flowers and leaves. I used lots of plaid papers by Lawn Fawn to create the wide variety of petals and leaves. The sentiment is stamped in black. I added a few sparkling clear sequins to complete my card.
