Stamp Ink Paper 46 Tic Tac Toe

Hey there!!! Happy May to you all with May brings flower and an overwhelming sense of spring!!! At least for most of you.... I had snow and rain all weekend!!!
This month we have the amazing Jan Tinklenberg guest designing for us!
We are starting this month with a really fun Tic Tac Toe Challenge!! I made my three in a row by going down the left side of the column!

This fabulous card kind of started backwards... I made the flower first and then started piecing things together... The stamps I used are called "Don't Be Like The Rest Of Them..." from Unity Stamp Company! I simply stamped the flower image using Versamark ink. Then used the gold Stampin' Emboss powder to heat emboss it!!So I did something new. I used my aqua painters with Blushing Bride and Wild Wasabi ink to watercolor my rose! I then took about a yard of gold metallic thread and wrapped it around my fist to create the loops behind the rose! The lovely stitched rectangles are from Gina Marie Designs. For my bling I adhered a mix of Pretty Pink Posh sequins!!  Flower, Pink, Bling that is my Tic Tac Toe!!!
Now I want to see how make our three in row!!!

Stamp Ink Paper 37 Wood Cork or Felt

Hey you all I am really sorry I am late with this post! 

This week has not been an easy one! I have Taryn my 6 year old with influenza and horse who has had colic for two days!! I am so lucky that Justin understood!!

This week with Stamp Ink Paper we are making cards featuring Natural Elements! Wood Cork or Felt!

This elegant card started with a base of Soft Sky with a quick matte of Very Vanilla. The Ball Jar paper is from Carta Bella Rustic Elegance! I also used the wood pattered paper from the same collection! The cute little banners seemed to fit my Rustic Elegant theme! I found these at Unity Stamp Company embellished the center one with a wood heart! The gold heat embossed sentiment is from Stampin' Up! Big News!

Have a fabulous day!

Stamp Ink Paper 32 Valentine Tic Tac Toe

Hey there! It is Tuesday and we know what that means!!! Stamp, Ink, Paper DAY! Sorry for no post yesterday. I have been fighting some sort of intestinal virus! Although, it could be the over excitement from the BRONCOS winning!!!!

This week Sandy Mathis has created a fun Valentine Tic Tac Toe that I am sure you all will be able to play!

So for my Tic Tac Toe I started on the bottom left and went diagonally up! So Patterned Paper, Love and Hearts! The great thing about this card is there was NO STAMPING! Yes you read that right! I absolutely LOVE the Carta Bella Rustic Elegance collection from last summer! Justin had sent me some of the collection from Scrap-A-Latte. After receiving the paper, I decided I needed a mini hoard of it and most of everything that went with it!  

So lets get started! I started with the base that Mint Macaron card stock base. I distressed the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The Heart Patterned paper was matted onto Early Espresso Card Stock. I also used the Vintage Photo ink on the edges of the patterned paper as well! The cute little crochet trim and bow are of course from Stampin' Up as well as the wooden "Celebrate"! The "love" was from the Rustic Elegance Ephemera pack! I added some dimension to this by using Dimensionals and a matte of Blushing Bride!! To finish this card I used the cute little roses!

Have A Great Day!
