Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

I’m packing for my trip today so I thought I’d share a really cute card with you created by one of my Design Team members, and I don’t have the Birds Eye View stamp set so it’s a treat for both you and me. We had a Tic-Tac-Toe challenge this month (I have not done mine yet … when I get back!)

I’m thinking that it is either … Any Shape / Ribbon / Animal *or* Any Shape / Embossed / Yellow. Which tic-tac-toe pattern do you think it is?? Either way, I think it turned out so cute!

Measurements: 

• Card Base: Lemon Lime Twist 5 ½” x 8 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”  
• Cardstock #2: Basic White  4” x 5 ¼”,  2 1/8” circle die, ½” x 2 ½” banner die
• Designer Paper: ¾” circle die

Instructions:

• Cut out 20 circles from the designer paper using the ¾” circle die. Adhere each circle to the Basic White cardstock.
• Stamp the owl and glasses on a scrap Watercolor Paper using Stazon ink. (Make sure that your Stazon is juicy before using it to make sure the image comes out nice and dark on the paper)
• Use a water painter to color the owl. (I pressed the ink pad on a Stamping Block, then picked up the color with a bit of water). Cut out the owl using Paper Snip Scissors.
• Cut out a circle using the 2 1/8” die. Adhere it to the card.
• Stamp “hi” on a piece of scrap Basic White cardstock. Cut it out using the banner die. Add it to the card using Dimensionals.
• Add the owl to the card using Dimensionals.
• Use the Multipurpose Glue to add a “bubble” to each of the glass lenses.
• Make a bow with the silver Simply Elegant Trim and add it to the card using a Glue Dot.
• Apply Rhinestones.

I want to thank you my friends for today’s visit to my blog. I’d be happy to hear what Tic-Tac-Toe pattern I should use for my card. You can comment below.

Have a wonderful day ~
