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 Diagonal:  Scoring, Stripes Ribbon 


My card is created on a white card base.  I added a white panel that I scored 5 times on the side.  I stamped the Dandelion and sentiment using this stamp set by Technique Tuesday.  I added a piece of Baker's Twine on the side. A very easy card to create.

Sketch by Lisa





My card is created using a white card base.  I added two white panels that I embossed with an embossing folder.  I added a rectangle of wood grained paper.  The leaf is cut out of some plaid paper I found in my stash.  I used an old die from SU-Vintage Leaves.  I stamped the sentiment in black.  CAS is never easy for me, but I love the way this turned out.

So Very Grateful Tic Tac Toe Challenge #tttc131

 Sept. 16, 2021

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 Diagonal:  Brown/Beige, Coloring, Foliage


My card is created on a white card base.  I added an Early Expresso background on the top of the base.  I cut a plaid paper with a die and then a Crumb Cake panel with the same die set. I embossed the small panel with some texture.  I used the stamp and die set by Neat and Tangled called Oak Leaf.  (I think they went out of business.  So sad!)  I love this set.  I watercolored a piece of water color paper to create the background for the leaves.  I heat embossed the leaf stamp and used gold embossing powder for the outline.  I love the variety of color the distress inks created.  The sentiment is stamped in black.  It is from the same set.  I added three enamel dots 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!

Sept. 5, 2021

HAPPY Labor Day Weekend!!!!!

It's Sunday and time for new challenges at The Paper Players and Sunday Stamps 

The lovely Leanne is the hostess at The Paper Players  this week.  She has a fabulous Theme Challenge for all of us!  "By the Numbers" is the theme and there are so many possibilities with this idea. 

The Sunday Stamps Challenge is a beautiful color challenge.

My card is created on a white card base.  I used Cajun Craze for my background.  I trimmed this panel with a Wonky Stitches die.  I added a strip of yellow/white chevron paper and then cut a Pear Pizazz panel with the same Wonky dies for the top panel.   The cup, sentiment and coffee element were stamped in black using a retired set by My Next Stamp "Java Geek".  The coffee splatters were added at the bottom and I added a black enamel dot in the center of each splatter.
