Well, hello my crafty friends. Happy Tic Tac Toe Thursday… This week our board was created by Shannon. My design this week I used the board elements left row down ( Tilted, Stitched, Blue). This one was easy, peasy to put together.
The art panel was created on Neenah Classic Solar White 80 lb paper (die cut with MFT Cross-Stitch Oval and coffee cups with my Brother Scan N Cut and paper pierced with Lawn Fawn Gingham patterned paper ), attached to a 2 x 4¼ gingham paper and adhered to a top fold Neenah Desert Storm card base. I stamped the Coffee & Friends sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black Ink and the little heart with MFT Paver Red ink. This finishes off my design for this week. Hope you like it and feel free to leave a comment.

Hello again! I am posting my second homework assignment for AECP. This design I’m using the beautiful Build A Flower: Rose set again, I’m in love with this stamp set it’s fast becoming a favorite. I love these layered roses and the countless ways they can be used to create so many lovely designs.
If your new to layering stamps like me and feel intimidated by them, Altenew has layering guides with each set on their website. These guides are great if your not sure how to line the stamp layers up properly. The more I create and come out of my comfort zone I’m loving learning this new technique.
Second Design
For my second project, I created a single rose from the Build A Flower: Rose stamp set and die to create this beautiful design. To color the flowers I stamped with Altenew Crisp Dye Inks in Red Cosmos, Green Fields Mini Cube Ink sets. This is quite simple as the images are fairly defined. If it isn’t exact it doesn’t matter in the least. The sentiment is from the Build A Flower: Sakura Blossom stamp and die set and stamped with Versafine Onyx Black Ink. I was pleasantly surprised that my design came together easily by following the alignment guide. I wanted to set my rose in a frame so I die cut the art panel using the Lil Inker Stitched Mats Dual Stitched Rectangles to give it the look of a photo frame. Lastly I finished my card by adding a few Lucy’s pearls and adhered the lovely rose and leaves to the bottom right corner of the frame panel, and attached to Neenah 110 lb top fold card base. Feel free to leave me a comment and let me know what you think of my design today!

Hi, Friends! There’s a new Tic Tac Toe Challenge and it’s a fun one! This week our board was created by guess who ME! I’m the Featured Designer this week. My design this week I choose the right row down ( Layers, Friend/Mom, Heat Embossing). This week I tried my hand at water coloring.
The art panel was created on Strathmore Ready Cut Watercolor paper cut to (4 x 5 1/4) and attached to a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Simon Says Slate Gray card base. I stamped the Mama sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black Ink, heat embossed the other sentiment with Stampendous White Detail Embossing Powder on black card stock. I added a few white and black splatters and sequins to finish off my design.

Hi, Friends! There’s a new Tic Tac Toe Challenge and it’s a fun one! This week our board was created by LeAnne, for my design this week I choose the middle row down ( Blue, Umbrella, Designer Paper). This week my design is pretty simple.
I die cut a panel of designer paper from the Moda Scrap Spring Flowers (6×6) card with a A2 die and attached the copic colored umbrella with foam adhesive. I then added this to a card base cut and scored from Neenah Solar White. I like all the bright colors together and raindrops drawing your attention to the colorful umbrella makes any gloomy day feel like sunshine..
