Wonderful Friend

Hi and welcome to another week at  Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge.  I came up with the board this week and my card is nothing like I envisaged when I designed the board!  I ended up using the centre row of Pink-Encouragement-Squares for this card.



This was quite simple to make.  After hot-foiling the frame and a sentiment, I chose some pink cardstocks and die-cut them with an embossed edge square die.  I arranged them within the foiled frame and added the sentiment.



Finally, I finished with some matching enamel dots.  I hope you'll head over and give my board a go!


Products used:

Cardstock:  White, Lemonade, Bubblegum (MFT), Velvet Rose (Spellbinders)
Dies:  Foiled Frames Square (MFT), Embossed Edge Square (Kat Scrappiness), Yana's Special Sentiments (Spellbinders)
Accessories:  Gold Hot Foil, Red Cosmos Enamel Dots (Altenew)

Silver Leaf

 Hi and welcome!  Today's sketch at Freshly Made Sketches was designed by Cecile Ribon and I took a very loose interpretation to come up with my card:



This card is all hot-foiling as I was really pressed for time this week to come up with a card.  I hot-foiled all the elements except the sentiment which was stamped.  I then arranged the elements to try and mimic the sketch.  And now that I look at the sketch as I'm typing this post, I realise I completely missed where the sentiment should go and the fact that the sketch is for a square card.  Doh!



Anyway, I hope you'll check out how the rest of the DT correctly interpreted the sketch!

Stamps:  Detailed Leaf (Pink Fresh)
Ink:  Versafine Onyx Black
Cardstock:  White
Dies:  Detailed Leaf hot foil and die (Pink Fresh), Fine Rings:  Circles (Altenew), Circle Infinity Dies (Hero Arts), A2 Layers Hot Foil (Waffle Flower)

Swoopy Roses

 
Hi and welcome to another challenge over at  Freshly Made Sketches where our sketch hostess this week is  Jen Brum.  Here's the card I made using Jen's sketch:


I die-cut the "swish" out of a white card panel before running the two leftover pieces through an embossing folder.  I matted some black behind the swish as well as some text patterned paper.  

After colouring and die-cutting the flowers I added those to the front along with a black hot-foiled sentiment.



And that's it!  Thanks so much for visiting.  Please check out the gorgeous cards made by the design team.
I'm adding this card to the Inkspirational challenge to add embossing and Addicted to Stamps & More's birthday challenge.

Mimosa Musings

 Hi and welcome!  I had a bit of spare time yesterday so decided to play with a couple of challenges.  The sketch at Just Add Ink and the colours from Color Hues combined to make this card.  


I stamped the Mimosa Musings images onto white cardstock and die-cut them.  I also stamped the main sentiment onto a white panel before running it through the Brickwork 3D embossing folder.  I chose 3 green cardstock colours and cut strips which I adhered onto the embossed panel and trimmed the sides.



I added the flowers and adhered the whole lot to a white card base.  On the inside, I stamped the remainder of the sentiment (which says "about you today") and added some more of the flowers (forgot to take a photo of the inside!)

Thanks so much for visiting.
