There is at least one card challenge out there that does a different Tic-Tac-Toe challenge each time. I’m alway curious about them, but somehow rarely participate. One of my favorite challenge sites, The Paper Players, has a Tic-Tac-Toe challenge this week. This is a weekly challenge, and I frequently miss those too. This time I was determined to play along.
When I recently went through and purged nearly half of my 6X6 papers, I found some old favorites. One pack was a My Mind’s Eye set with gold accents which I loved when it came out. I found this blue and bronze combination which I thought would make a good masculine birthday card. I need two of them in September, and I chose the row across the middle: birthday/die-cut/masculine.
The 6X6 paper gave me two 3″ pieces. I adhered it to the left side of the card, and used another piece of paper from the pack to die cut the word “celebrate” and cut a narrow strip of bronze metallic paper along the side.
The die cut sentiment is from Papertrey Ink’s “Wet Paint II” set.
Thanks for visiting. I hope you have a great week!
That’s an interesting way of setting a challenge! And I like what you have come up with; very arty.
that is such perfect paper for this challenge and certainly makes a great masculine card – you should try the TicTacToe Challenge (https://tictactoechallenge.com/) – I’m on their DT and really find this challenges my creativity – makes me think outside my box! I’m working on my card for the PP challenge tomorrow!
Yeah to sorting of papers & the discovery of the perfect use for re-discovered gems. What an interesting way to challenge participants. Your choice is a winner for sure & shows off your talents & skills as a master card maker.
Oh, this is so pretty! I’m glad you found the paper. I missed seeing this on Sunday when I had my “event”. Looking forward to Jim coming home tomorrow.
This is such a beautiful combination of colors and a very unique design. I love it a a masculine card. Perfect! Thank you for joining us at the Paper Players this week.
I remember this paper – in fact I think I still have a couple of pieces I’ve been hoarding. The little hints of shimmer and shine are fabulous. So glad you shared this with us at the Paper Players this week
