7 Kids College Fund Challenge #131: Anything Goes with a Twist: Tic-Tac-Toe Board

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today starts a new challenge on the 7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog! The theme for the next 2 weeks is:

ANYTHING GOES with an optional twist of a TIC-TAC-TOE BOARD 

(created by our DT Member Colleen)!!

Now, remember for the Tic Tac Toe Board it's 3 across, or 3 up and down, or 3 diagonal....so you could do Flowers, Sentiment, and Embossing, or Flowers, Square, and Rectangles, or Flowers, Buttons, and Lace. It's totally up to you on which Row you decide to use!! 

Just remember to qualify for the TOP 3 and Gift Certificate, you must use a stamp carried in the 7 Kids College Fund Store. This challenge will end on AUGUST 11th, 12:00pm MST.

Some of my favorite stamps are the Simply Gorjuss line from DoCrafts. I own a lot of them, haha! This one is called Simply Gorjuss Getaway. She's stamped on X-press It Blending Card and colored with Copics.

Copics:

Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E13

Black: C3, C5, C7

My Tic-Tac-Toe combination is Flowers, Square, and Rectangles. I used By DIEzyne Dies Stitched and Pierced Rectangles to cut out the white and black cardstock image. The decorative paper with the flowers is from Penny Black Beau Jardin 6x6 Paper Pad. The sentiment on the squares is from Penny Black Sprinkles and Smiles Clear Stamps.

Little Darlings Rubber Stamps~SC Girl Power: LITTLE LOVES

Happy Tuesday everyone! I'm back to share my latest card for Little Darlings Rubber Stamps using this adorable gal called Saturated Canary Girl Power: Little Loves. I LOVE butterflies so I had to have this fabulous stamp! She is stamped on X-Press It Blending Card with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copics. I framed my image using the LDRS Dewdrop Circle Die....it's GORGEOUS!!

 

 Skin: E000, E00, E01, E02, E13

Lips: R22, R27

Eyes: E44

Hair: E44, E47, E49

Dress: R24, R27, R29, R59

Butterfly: BG13, BG15, Y02 

 

TIP OF THE DAY: I sprinkled Aged Taupe Frantage Embossing powder around my image, and used my Toaster to heat it from underneath to keep the particles from flying around! By using the toaster I can control where the particles go and if there are any on her face I can move them off before I heat it.

  

I decided to make an easel card and used some dps from Echo Park Fine and Dandy 6x6 Paper Pad. The flowers are from I Am Roses and the pearls were in my stash. The butterfly was cut out using By DIEzyne Dies Dotted Wings and Puffy Things. I also used the same LDRS Dewdrop Circle Die for underneath the sentiment. I just used my cutting knife to cut off the outer edge of the die to form a dotted circle.

 

Now head over to the LDRS Store to get all your cute stamps and amazing dies! If you want to see more amazing creations from my fellow DT sisters, then head over to the LDRS Blog. And be sure to come have some fun with us on the LDRS Facebook Group!

 

Hugs!

The Greeting Farm July Release~MAKE A WISH

Today, I'm back with the last new stamp released in the TGF Store on July 15th called MAKE A WISH! This stamp set comes with a coordinating die available HERE. I love cupcakes so you know I had to have this one for my collection! It's also great to put a card together quickly because there is not a lot of coloring involved. :)

I actually used chalk to color in the cupcake liner. The rest of it is CTMH Baby Pink Ink. To kick it up a notch, I added lots of Cotton Candy Stickles to the hearts and liner!

 My dps are from Bo Bunny Head Over Heels 6x6 Paper Pad. The gorgeous heart border at the bottom of my card is Memory Box Cherish Border Die. I used the Spellbinders Lacey Circles Nestabilities to cut the black scallop circle around my image. The pearls are from Melissa Frances. The white ribbon is from Walmart.
