TTTC017-Merry Christmas

Hello my crafty friends it’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday! I’m super excited to share my design with you this week….. This one was pretty easy peasy to pull together. I decided to pull elements from the bottom left diagonal row up: ink blending, circle, green.

I stamped the Avery Elle Festive Wreath image onto X-Press-It blending paper and colored with various Copic markers. I pulled out last year’s Authentique Retro Christmas 6×6 paper pad and used one of the patterns that had bulbs to accent the berries in the wreath. To finish my card I adhered the pattern paper and art piece onto a Top-Fold (SU) Garden Green card base added a few Nuvo Crystal Drops in Red Berry, Nuvo Crystal Glaze onto the berries to give them dimension along with white accents on the leaves and berries. The sentiment was stamped with SSS Clear Ink and heat embossed with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder.

Hello, Are you ready for some Tic Tac Toe. I’m back with a new card for you this week over on the Tic Tac Toe challenge. For this weeks design I went middle row across: Floral, Yellow, Die-cut.

I stamped the Penny Black Flower Cascade stamp onto Neenah Solar White card stock twice. I then stamped the image again on Bristol card stock. I colored one of the images that was stamped on the Neenah with various Copic markers and then I fussy cut it out… I know right! not my thing for sure.
The image that was stamped on the Bristol card stock I did some ink smooshing with Hickory Smoke, Wild Honey Distress Inks. Next I adhered my fussy cut image  with a slight offset onto the smooshed background.  The sentiment  is  from SSS Bouquet of Thanks stamp set it was stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with Wow Clear EP.

As a final touch, I created tiny flowers with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Dandelion and Ebony as accents, Clear Wink of Stella was added to flowers to give them a little shimmer. I die cut the panel with the SSS Scallop Border die before mounting the panel on a Black Licorice card base.

Tic Tac Toe Thursday – TTTC013

Hello, Hello my crafty friends it’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday and this week’s board was created by none other than Shannon Jaramillo. They say three times a charm right! For this weeks creation it took me 3 not 1 but 3 times before I was some what happy with the results. The verdict is still out but any who’s here you go! I’ve been wanting the W Plus 9 Modern Anemones stamp set for some time now and I’ve been chomping at the bit to try embossing with the Tonic Nuvo Gilding Flakes. This weeks board provided the perfect opportunity.

I stamped several of the Modern Anemones flowers and leaves onto Neenah Solar White Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with various copic markers. The flowers and leaves were cut out with my Brother Scan N Cut.
I die cut an oval shape out of black cardstock with  one of the MFT Cross Stitch Oval dies and arranged my flowers to look as though they were cascading the oval shape. I wanted a bold graphic look and the Ellen Hutson Modern Graphics paper was the key to pulling this design together.
To finish off my card I adhered a (4 x 5.25)  piece of one of the Modern Graphic designs paper onto an A2 Top Fold Neenah Solar White card base. The sentiment was stamped with SSS clear ink and heat embossed with Ranger Sticky embossing powder Nuvo Gilding flakes in Radiant Gold were applied to the sticky embossed sentiment, rubbed in and the excess removed with a brush.
I adhered the oval (just so you know the oval was the reason for my 3 times is a charm) and arranged the flowers around the oval added a few My Minds Eye enamel dots from Christmas on Market Street

Thanks So Much – TTTC011

Happy Thursday my crafty friends welcome to another Tic Tac Toe Thursday… Wow! how time flies when your having fun. I can’t believe how we have gone full circle with the entire Design Team being the Featured Designer.  This week’s board was created by Peggy Noe.
For my design this week I chose the elements on the middle row across: flower, thank you, angled.

I have fallen in love with the look of a black background against a pop of color.

I die cut the Avery Elle Diagonal Stripes Elle-ments out of Neenah Solar White Card and adhered it to an A2 Top-Fold Black Card base. I had a few flowers left over from the Avery Elle Floral Bouquet set that I’ve been trying to use for some time now and what a perfect opportunity. The flowers were angled in the lower right corner (hint) angled…. you know the third element on the middle row across. I took the Thanks so much sentiment that’s included in the die set and ombre colored it with my Copic Markers added some Versamark ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  The card was finished by adhering the sentiment adding  a few Nuvo Crystal Drops in Carnation Pink and some Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

Hope you’ll join me over on the Tic Tac Toe challenge this week. I can’t wait to see you in the gallery.

Butterfly Kisses & Birthday Wishes for YOU!! TTTC010

Hello, Hello my crafty friends………!  It’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday and I’m keeping it simple this week. For this week’s board I chose the elements on the top row across: Metallic, Emboss, Insect or bug.  This week’s board was created by the talented Nicole Watt………..

I have fallen in love with the dramatic look of black cardstock as the backdrop for my images. I took a piece of SU Black cardstock and stamped the flower image from the Mama Elephant Butterfly Kisses with clear ink and heat embossed with the SSS Fine Detail Gold EP. I then colored the flower with my Prima Metallic Accents Watercolors. I have a confession I’m actually giving Washi  tape some love. I adhered strips of the Pink Fresh Studio Washi tape along the sides of my card base . After I was done with the art panel I took the same colors of paint as my image and went splatter crazy. The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with the gold embossing powder as well………. The art panel was then adhered to an A2Top Fold card base. I hope you like my take on the top row of the Tic Tac Toe board this week.  Oh by the way you should check out some of the design’s that Design Team “O” has created for you this week.
