Stamp Ink Paper 61 Tic Tac Toe Challenge

Good Morning! Rise and Shine it is Tuesday! 9 Days til school starts and we all survived Monday! We here at the Tucker house had fun filled weekend in Denver courtesy of Troy's place of employment! We went to Elitch Gardens and ran the kids ragged on rides... But I think we ran ourselves ragged in the process as well!

This week with Stamp Ink Paper we have a really fun Tic Tac Toe Challenge and I can't wait to show you what I made but going across the top Green, Sequins and Flowers!

I must say that I really could have done a lot of with the above Tic Tac Toe but I am really trying to go outside of my comfort zone lately and it was time for a NON shaker card! The Swirly Bird Bundle seems to be one of the more popular sets out of the annual catalog! I know that i had used the dies before but the stamp set had yet to be inked up! My inspiration for color is the Perfectly Wrapped packaging kit! I just love the colors in that set so I ran with it! Now I know you are saying "Where are the flowers". To me, the swirls are abstract flowers... I suppose I could have added leaves but I liked things the way they were! I started with Peakaboo Peach flowers, then used the Emerald Envy. The Basic Black seems the most abstract to me and I finished it with some Gold Foil die cuts using the Scribble Dies that are in this bundle. My "Happy Day" sentiment is from the Perfectly Wrapped stamp set. It is stamped over the Peakaboo Peach "splatters" from the Swirly Bird set! To finish this card off I stapled the Gold Sequins with the Emerald Envy ribbon!!
Thank you so much for stopping in!
Can't wait to see how you make your 3 in a row!

OSAT May Flowers Blog Hop

 

Hey there!! Happy Thursday to you!!! It is the second Thursday of the month and we should all what that means by now! It is the One Stamp At A Time Blog Hop! If you got to by way of Alisa Tilsner her creations are always so lovely!
I have to be honest I am not sure how I pulled it all together for this hop. You see, this past Saturday we had an EF2 Tornado hit here in Wray, Colorado. Well not only did it hit in Wray it hit the property that we live on and destroyed a friends house up north! This all happened while we were in Nebraska!!! It was pretty scary not knowing what were going to come home to even though we knew that our house was okay! It has made for quite an interesting week! What was my silver lining you ask? MY Stampin' Up! 2016-2017 Catalog PRE-ORDER came!!!! So everything I have for you is NEW!!! Wooty WOOT!

So my creations this month started with the Perfectly Wrapped Project Kit! This kit is absolutely adorable. I just love the colors!!! It comes with the cute cellophane bag and the striped box shown here but it also has a tiny acetate box and a gift bag to create as well! The colors really caught my eye on this. It is the NEW Emerald Envy and Peakaboo Peach as well as Tangerine Tango, Basic Black, Mint Macaron and Whisper White with Gold Accents.

So to coordinate with the Perfectly Wrapped Kit, I started my card with a vivid base of Emerald Envy. To keep with the scheme of things I matted the Black and White striped paper from the NEW Pop of Pink DSP with the Peakaboo Peach. My Scribbles are a new Thinlit! They are called Scribbles Thinlits. I used the precision plate to cut these out. They came out of the dies with ease using our Die Brush! I created my flower using two of the dies to adhere this to the NEW Flirty Flamingo card stock I used spray adhesive then fussy cut the outer edge. I stole the leaves from my Perfectly Wrapped kit and added them to my flower. My Gold border on the left hand side was also from the scribble thinlits simply cut from our Gold Foil paper! To adhere these I used a two way glue pen. Ooops I almost for my banner!! Obviously it is new too! It is a great little bundle available in the new catalog! The stamp set is called Thoughtful Banners and coordinates with the new Duet Banner Punch. This bundle is going to be super versatile! I stamped the banner outline with Emerald Envy ink and the sentiment with our Archival Black! What card of mine wouldn't be complete with some lovely sequins that I still have from the Hello December kit!

These are the Perfectly Wrapped Projects stamped with the Perfectly Wrapper stamp set! If you look below I gave you a closer look at the beautiful flower!

Phew! Seems like a lot of work right? Honestly, half a day with all the items made!
