Happy Sunday, everyone! It's time for another Paper Players challenge, and Joanne has a great tic-tac-toe challenge for us today! They're always fun! Here's the grid:
I chose the center column of patterned paper (current DSP from SU), yellow (So Saffron and Daffodil Delight) and birthday (Itty Bitty Greetings):
I began my stamping one of the florals from Bloom and Grow in Sahara Sand ink. These large images can be intimidating, even to me! But they color up very quickly, really! I colored this one with a Crumb Cake center, Daffodil Delight light and dark petals, and Mint Macaron leaves. Then I diecut it with the matching die, and instead of layering it on top of the gingham, I also cut the gingham with the die and "inlaid" the colored image inside. Just a little thing, but I like the effect it gives:
I stamped the sentiment in Crumb Cake and diecut it with the Nested Labels dies, adding a little burlap ribbon underneath, along with a few metallic pearls! I love these colors together! And since the Festive Friday challenge this week is featuring yellow, I am entering there as well!
I hope you'll play along with us this week too....lots of fun possibilities with a tic-tac-toe grid! Share you creation with us, and check out what the DT did at the Paper Players blog or click below:

Those blooms are gorgeous and look so pretty on the gingham!Love your visitors in the field!
Love the sunny yellow and gingham and what a neat idea to inlay the floral die - I really like this detail too! A great card for this week's challenge LeAnne!
I LOVE all your visitors! How fun! Since we moved back to the city, I miss seeing all the deer friends when we lived at the lake!
All the yellow and white gingham is so pretty and your inlaid blooms are gorgeous! Such a creative idea! Love that ribbon to add a country feel to your card!
Happy Fourth of July to your family! XXX
What a beautiful card! I love the inlaid look...how creative! The pearls are the perfect accents!!!
LeAnne, love your visitors and yes, I wonder who was actually watching who?! I also love your card. I love the texture the hessian and it works so beautifully with the gingham - they really go together so well. You did a great job of coloring the flowers, too and I love that you die-cut them and inserted them into the gingham. Oh, I love the layout, too! A wonderful, warm and sunny card - sure to brighten anyone's day.
