Happy Sunday, peeps! It's my turn to host the Paper Players and this week, it's a Tic-Tac-Toe! Wheee! So many options! Here's the grid:
For my card, I chose the left column: red, Santa, and diecut, but it also fulfills the top row across, which is red, glitter and snowflakes! I chose to make a little scene:
I used the Hearth & Home die along with Lawn Fawn's Stitched Hillsides to create my scene. My sentiment is from Cosmo Cricket; I sponged the "siding" on the Crumb Cake card, added a red window frame, complete with a gingham curtain, snow in the corners and heaps on snow at the top and bottom:
And ho, ho, ho, who is that we see inside?
Jolly Saint Nick himself (Katy Sue's Silhouette Santas), placing a gift under a Lovely as a Tree Christmas tree! They're stamped on Always Artichoke, which for some reason, is difficult for me to photograph! The sentiment is from Amy R Stamps' Handy Christmas Greetings. I added a few stamped snowflakes on the outside; the "snow" glitter is from Martha Stewart!
Now, I hope you'll find some inspiration in my tac-tac-toe board and play along with us! Check out the amazing samples from the DT:
Cassidy got another Halloween card in the mail; this one was from my very first Stampin' Up! customer, Maryanne! She loves funny cards, especially interactive ones, and this one did not disappoint! It featured a little scene with three spooky characters that move along the bottom of the card when you pull the ribbon:
She loved the vampire-looking dude the best!
And check out the cool stuff she put on the spiderweb inside! Neat!
Hope you have a wonderful day full of blessings!

Oh my goodness I just love this LeAnne! I almost missed the Santa at first glance, because I was too busy ooh-ing and aah-ing over that red window and gingham curtain amidst the snow drifts, then I saw him - how fabulous! I love your sponged clapper board house too, so effective! I had so much fun with your board this week - and adore your fab Christmas card! Way to rock your challenge, my friend!
This card is just AWESOME! I can't wait to play along...so many ideas floating through my head. Have a blessed week.
Yes, I'm back!!! What a DARLING little scene you've created, LeAnne! I don't know how you keep it all together so well ... busy hands, right? One only has to look at that darling face to know how much Cassidy loves her card!

This is such a clever and fun design LeAnne!! I love how you did the siding on your house and what a fun idea to put Santa through the window!! LOVE IT!! :)
This is fantastic, LeAnne! The sponged siding is brilliant and looks so realistic. Love the stitched hillsides too. Great TTT board!
Love this!! Seeing santa at work and the little mound of snow in the window box is wonderful. What a delightful card. And what a fun card for sweet Cassidy!!
Wow, you've been such a busy stamper, LeAnne! I can't keep up with all your posts! Love your Santa in the window, especially the snow collected in the corners. You already know I loved this tic tac toe board, too!
Oh my, that Santa in the window is FANTASTIC!!!!!! I love the siding on your house, too! This card makes me smile! Such a fun challenge! I love Tic Tac Toe boards! Thanks, My Friend! XX
LeAnne - putting Santa in the window is genius! I love the little touches of snow, especially with the gingham blind! Fabulous - and such a great tic-tac-toe challenge. I love the card that Cassidy received for Halloween, too. Thank you for sharing
