Hello, It’s that time… What time is it! It’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday and I have a fun card for you today. I used the elements in the middle row down….. blue, embossing, happy.
I couldn’t wait to pull out this old stencil I got last year in the SSS August 2016 Card kit.
I created several fireworks on my navy blue cardstock with various EP (hint, hint) I took the middle row too a whole new embossing level.
After embossing several fireworks I went over my card with some perfect pearls to give the fireworks some shimmer.
I then stamped the Happy 4th of July sentiment on vellum and adhered it with glue dots to my card front. This card was pretty easy to create. I hope you join in the fun over on the TicTacToe challenge this week.

Hello, hello! Welcome back to Tic Tac Toe Thursday. For my card today I chose the top left row diagonal down.
I stamped the flower from the Mama Elephant Butterfly Kisses set on Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored the flowers with various Copic markers and cut it out with my Mama Elephant Butterfly Kisses Creative Cuts. I found some strips of old patterned papers from my stash and wow did it make a difference to my design.
I used my Sharpie Extra Fine Point water-based pen to add a few white dots on the flowers to give them some definition along with Clear Wink of Stella to add a little sparkle.
I added a few embellishments with my Nuvo Glitter Drops in Silver MoonDust along with silver twine that was adhered to the back of the flowers. Thank you for stopping by hope you like my take on this weeks Tic Tac Toe board.

Hello my crafty chica’s……….. Happy Sunday evening to yah! I’m hoping you had a fabulous weekend. I went to a watercolor class on Saturday and this morning I spent sometime in the haven getting my inky on… Let’s cut to the chase I’m playing over on the CASology challenge this evening and the Cue word is Clothes… I love too shop go figure right what girl doesn’t. Here’s my take on the cue word.
This one was pretty easy to make. I’ve been wanting to use the MMH April Card Kit for sometime now it is filled with tons of girly images and dies. I wanted my dress to look like it was on display in a dress shop.
I die-cut the mannequin base out of black cardstock and adhered it to a MFT Die-namics Cross Stitch Oval die cut out of Neenah Solar white cardstock.
I used one of the dress images and stamped it on some old patterned paper from my stash. I love this paper it has an animal print with pink roses in the design. I then stamped the hat image in VersaFine Onyx Black Ink on Neenah Solar white cardstock and die cut it out adhered it to the top of the mannequin base.
I knew the patterned paper would be perfect for a dress. I used my white sharpie pen to add pearls around the neck. I used the leftover paper to give the image a backdrop… It’s a wrap hope you like my take on the cue word.

Hello, Hello my crafty friends……. Yeap! It’s that time Tic Tac Toe Thursday is here and I have a little something to share with you today. I’m going to link this card too a few challenges where Anything Goes. I like the Tic Tac Toe board that was designed by Corinne this week. My design originally started out as middle row across: Happy Birthday, Gray, Yellow it dawned on me after it was done oops! I used the wrong sentiment for the middle row.. but remember we’re playing TIC TAC TOE, I’m still in the game and won with the bottom row across: Hexagon, DieCut, Embellishment…… Woot! Woot! You see how you can’t go wrong with playing this game of TIC TAC TOE.
For my card today I did a “lil” ink smooshing with Squeezed Lemonade and Mustard Seed distress inks and used my heat tool to speed up the drying.
I took my clarity stencil brush and the Tim Holtz hexagon stencil to add a few hexagons and ink splatters with Hickory Smoke distress ink to give my background some pizzaz.
I stamped the SU Birthday Blooms flower image on Neenah Solar White cardstock and colored the flower with various copic markers and cut it out with my Brother Scan and Cut. I added a few embellishments with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Liquid Mercury and English Mustard…
I don’t know if you see the sparkle but I added some Clear Wink of Stella to those flowers to give it a ‘lil’ dew you know like dew drops early in the morning…..
Hint, Hint from the looks of this card what row do you think I was creating off of…. lol. Thank you for stopping by today.
I’m also linking my card to the Addicted to Stamps and More Challenge.

Hello, my crafty friends…… I’m super excited it’s Tic Tac Toe Thursday. I’m excited to be sharing my first creation with you today on the new Tic Tac Toe Challenge blog. For my design I chose the right row diagonal.
I trimmed down a piece of Black cardstock to 4 ” x 5 1/4″ and stamped the large floral image from the Floral Bliss Stamp set on the left side of the cardstock as shown using SSS Clear Ink and heat embossed with SSS Ultra Fine Gold embossing powder. The image was water colored with the Gansai Tambi Starry colors and a Silver Black Velvet paint brush #4. Once completely colored in, I set the background aside to dry.
I finished the design by splattering some gold flecks with a scattering of Honey Gold Nuvo Glitter Drops.
Oh! by the way please don’t forget to stop by and see the inspiration from the rest of the Design Team http://tictactoechallenge.com/tttc0001-welcome/
