Sneak Peek for Tic Tac Toe 009

The Tic Tac Toe Challenge has a great bored right now. It has thank you, all things round, sequins, stacked sentiments, plants. So many fun elements to choose from. I chose to go all they way down on one side with all things round, stacked sentiments, and plants.  

I knew right away I wanted to use all things round.  So then I decided to use a stacked Sentiment. That just left plants.  My first version of this card, I completely forgot to add the plant elements. I was going to go with it anyway, but then I had computer issues and didn’t get my post off as scheduled. So, I decided to add the plants… Such fun ?

I really wanted to use an upcoming stamp set from the Holiday Catalog (available Sep.1) it is perfect for the round theme. And can be used for so much more than Holiday cards and crafts.  The set is called Cheers to the Year.  I love the sketch circles in this set!!!

Cheers to the Year

This is such a wonderful stamp set.  I love the snowflakes and the sentiments are beautiful.  Stampin’ Up! has paired this set with some amazing matellics for the holidays!  These samples from the catalog are just simply beautiful in every way!

Cheers to the Year Stampin’ UP!

I decided to pare the circles with a fun summer color combination!  This color combination reminds me of a setting sun or even  a sun rise on the beach.  The perfect blend of pinks, yellows, and peaches.

The sentiment is from a wonderful stamp set in the Annual Catalog, Hello Friend.  It is paired with The Stitched Shapes Layering Dies and the Paisley Framelit Dies.

  • The circles are stamped in Daffodil Delight, Peekaboo Peach, and Melon Mambo
  • The a few flecks of gold/silver leafing. If I were to do this again, I would add less leafing…i just got carried away and kept adding
  • The sentiment is stacked on layers of the circles from the stitched Shapes Layering dies.
  • The flowers are cut from the Paisley framelit dies.

Each of your comments makes me smile! Please, comment HERE.

Here’s a look at the card before adding the flowers.

Here is the supply list less the items not available until September.

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have had a great Monday.  And that  you have had a moment to be creative.

Peace-

Jennifer
