It's Sunday and time for a new challenge at The Paper Players!
The lovely Laurie is our hostess this week! This is my favorite challenge--Tic-Tac-Toe! I am always amazed at the variety of fantastic cards using the board. I can't wait to see all the fabulous creations! Have fun!
I used the last column--Masculine-Red-Die Cut. I grew up in Indiana and bowling was so popular in the Mid-West. The winters are so cold and many people participate on bowling teams. That is not so popular in Atlanta, but this stamp set made me smile.
My base card is white. I used a piece of patterned paper I found in an old pad that had a bowling theme. I was jumping for joy when I found it. I backed it with red and black paper. I cut a strip of woodgrain paper for the bowling lane. A Zig Zag Stitched Circle Die by SugarPea Designs was used to cut the circle. I used Tim Holtz Tea Dye distress ink on the edges.
The bowler and the pins were stamped on Neenah Solar white paper. The Spare Me stamp set is from SugarPea Designs. I colored the images with Copic Markers. Glossy Accents were added to the pins. Wink of Stella was added for shine to the images. The sentiment is stamped in Momento black ink.
So happy you stopped by my blog today! Please leave a message! I love to hear from you!
