Happy Friday, peeps! I am off this morning to stamp with my retirement community friends, so this will be short and sweet! The Tic-Tac-Toe challenge from Vicky this week is a fun one:
I've been working on some Christmas cards for my next stamp camp and one of them fit the bill; actually, it could be for two tic-tac-toes! I originally chose the top row across but it could also be the left column down. Here we go:
I still have a few pieces of Soft Sky cardstock left in my stash, and I thought it would be pretty with this Cottage Cut Winter Wonderland Border die. I stamped a large sentiment from the retired Greatest Part of Christmas in Baja Breeze, then added a few snowflakes. The snowflakes sort of blended into the background, so I sponged some white craft ink along with some white Shimmer Paint around the edges. It's hard to see but it gives the card a nice subtle sparkle!
I added some sparkle to the snow as well....too bad you can't really see it here! I just love this cute little die!
The inside featured another sentiment from the same set, diecut with the Unbounded Love dies:
I am still on the fence as to whether or not this card will make the cut for the class. Also, I'd love to get some more cardstock that is close to this pretty shade of blue! Anyone have any suggestions as to where and what color they would recommend? I was so sad when SU retired this! Anyway, thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

Oh, I totally understand why you would want more of this beautiful blue, LeAnne - PTI Aqua Mist is pretty but not quite as soft as this one.
ReplyDeleteI love your card - CAS and as sweet as it can be!
I'll check my cardstock to see if I have any of this color. If so, I'll mail to you. Thank you for the lovely b'day card I received yesterday. I'll be displaying it on my post either tomorrow or Sunday :-) Have a blessed day and thanks for being a blessing to me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet card! And like you I loved Soft Sky! Perfect with
ReplyDeleteBaja Breeze (another fave long gone!).
What a pretty little winter scene! Love this, LeAnne. I'm thinking PTI's Aqua Mist (which has been sadly unavailable for quite some time now) or maybe The Stamp Market's Sea Glass (it looks blue online, but is aqua) would be a good match.
ReplyDeleteI love this - that die is so pretty and I've always loved that blue - the perfect winter sky.
ReplyDeleteSoft Sky is one of my favorite SU colors and I've used almost all of it. Your scene is such fun! I love the snowflakes and the way you did the edge! Such a fun die too!
ReplyDeleteLovely card. I wonder if I have some Soft sky left. tfs
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a festive card from Tiffany LeAnne! It's so elegant with its snowy sky and that gorgeous border die. Thank you for coming to play with my Tic Tac Toe board! Vicky x
