Hi stampers! My second post of the day, and it's the first challenge of the year for Team X at the Tic Tac Toe challenge!! It's my turn to choose the elements for the board, and here's what I came up with:
I chose the middle row across of red, dry embossing and designer paper, but it hits a few more squares as well! So here we go!
I hadn't inked up the cute Under My Umbrella set for a while, and I thought a red plaid umbrella would make a fun Valentine card! I stamped the umbrella on the SAB DSP Berry Delightful and added a floral accents, colored with Blends and fussy cut:
I realized that my reds don't really match, but hopefully the recipient won't notice too much! I extended the umbrella handle a bit and added a little bow at the "junction", then mounted it all on a panel that had been embossed with the Falling Petals EF (which look like hearts to me!) and added a sentiment at the bottom, also embellished with some flowers and bling! It all went on a Basic Black mat and a Real Red card base.
And here's the inside:
It was a lot of fun to ink this set up again! I hope you'll find some inspiration from our Tic Tac Toe board and play along this week! Can't wait to see what you create!
