The Paper Players PP709 - A Tic Tac Toe Challenge from Claire



Join us! It is 
TIC TAC TOE week at The Paper Players.  Claire is challenging us to pick a row, diagonal or column from the Tic Tac Toe board above, and create a card.   
This week, I decided to focus on the right diagonal: LEAVES, DIE, and DOTS or SEQUINS.  I used Tim Holtz' funky leaf set (I believe Altenew has a funky leaf set too).  The leaves are die cut from cardstock I sprayed with metallic sprays, one of my favorite inking techniques.  Leaves are mounted on kraft cardstock with gold, heat embossed edges and sentiment. Gold metallic dots were the final touch.


Keeping with my New Year resolution, I made three copies of this card.  My goal in making this resolution was to have more cards to donate.  This type of general card is put aside for friends.  Whenever I need a "thank you", I bundle five cards up in an acetate A2 box with a simple ribbon.  The boxes can be purchased on Amazon.

Check out our fabulous guest designers as well as the rest of the design team.  These ladies work hard to inspire you each week.  Drop by their blogs and leave them a little love.

Enjoy!  I am looking forward to your inspired creations in the gallery.

Elizabeth, these leaves are beautiful! I love that you used metallic spray to create them. The gold embossed sentiment and panel are lovely! I love the kraft background for Fall! Thank you for making my challenge shine this week! HUGS!
