GD for Tic Tac Toe
I'm happy to be Guest Designing for TTT Challenge No. 080. There are lots of fun options with this board, so hope you'll play along.
My inspiration came from the top horizontal line: Stripes, Masculine, Blue. As you may have noticed, I seldom use designer paper on my cards. Today's card changes that, as I found this wonderful blue/green striped sheet in a pack I've had forever.
One of the main problems I have is finding inks to go with the papers. This time I had a perfect match for the green: VersaMagic Oasis Green. I stacked the MFT letters 2 high, sponged on the ink & mounted them to a navy scrap. The Winnie & Walter balloon die was cut from heavy weight vellum twice & embossed with a star folder. I tied on the navy twine & figured out how I wanted it to lay before mounting the sentiment panel with foam tape. Always good to come up with a masculine card you like, right?! Thanks so much to TTTC for having me GD with them & thanks to you for visiting my blog. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will be stopping by.
