Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #8

Happy Friday everyone!! It is a happy one for me because it is the last day before spring vacation from school!! I will not be going anywhere due to Charlotte having dress rehearsal for dance but just having next week off from work is fine with me.

Today I am sharing a card I created for Stamping Smiles Designs Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #8.


I chose to use the last column on the right, down-Square CardDie-Cut Negatives and Food/Drink.


This was a TOTAL challenge for me as I DO NOT make square cards!! That said, this was oh so much fun to create!!



I started off by taking an A2 sized polka dot card base I had in my stash and cutting it into a 4" by 4" card. Next I used foam adhesive to pop a negative die-cut that I had on my desk. I had previously blended this square with orange ink and used the circle for a different card. I adhered a white banner with a stamped sentiment from PaperTrey Ink's "Sweet as Can Be" stamp set over the square.


I then stamped, die cut and adhered an ice cream cone from the set over the banner. The last step was to add sequin "sprinkles" on top of the ice cream.

I LOVE how this card came out and used a stamp set that I had NEVER played with before even though I have had it for years. I LOVE these challenges!!

Please hop on over to the Stamping Smiles Designs Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge blog and play with us.

Thank you for stopping by!! Have a FABULOUS day!!

Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #5

Hello everyone!! Happy Tuesday!! Can you believe it is MARCH already? Wow!! This year is flying by!!

Today I am here to share the card I created for Stamping Smiles Designs Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #5. I cannot believe that this is already the fifth challenge. I have had so much fun creating for this blog!!

For my card, I used the top row across-green, beads and geometric shapes.


I was so excited when I saw this badge because I was intrigued with using beads on my card WITHOUT making a shaker. Here is what I came up with:


I started my card off by die cutting a rectangle of green and white striped patterned paper and adhering it to a Kraft card base. Next, I die cut three triangles with MFT's "Triangle Die-namics" from paper scraps and adhered them over my striped patterned paper. (geometric shapes)


I then die cut the word thanks three times from Kraft card stock using a Simon Says Stamp die. I glued the layers together and the fun began!!

I took a piece of gold thread and weaved it in and out of the thanks sentiment, catching green seed beads at different points in the word. The beads were adhered to the sentiment using micro glue dots so they would not slip.


I then weaved more gold thread around the word and adhered the thanks to the card using Ranger multi-matte adhesive. I LOVE how this came out!! It is still flat enough to send too!!

Please come on over to Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge and enter a card for Challenge #5. I cannot wait to see what inspires you to make a card!!

Thank you for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!!
