Tic Tac Toe Challenge No. 041
The #tttc each week offers 9 possible card combinations. This week, I chose the top horizontal line of circle, flower, and die cut. I tried combining it with the color challenge from Fab Friday #134 which is Powder Pink, Night of Navy, So Saffron, and Soft Sky. What I got was a soft and sweet thank you card, even with the Night of Navy paper and ink. I also substituted Pool Party for the Soft Sky.
Here’s my card:
Here’s the #tttc041 challenge:
The soft and sweet elements
I used Night of Navy for the base of the card, the ink for the sentiment, and Stamping Write Marker for the outline of the Pretty Label Punch. I am getting better at using the marker to outline, as long as I remember to keep the marker below the punch. It’s possible to control the outline by angling the thick side of the marker on the outline.
The DSP is from the Whole Lot of Lovely DSP pack. Some of these sheets are soft and others are bold, but they are all lovely. Powder Pink flowers on the top, and the substitution of Pool Party on the bottom.
The die cut is from the Stitched Shapes die set. I love this set, use it often, and many times I use a Stamping Write marker to draw an outline in the ditch of the shapes. The So Saffron circle and mat under the DSP cover that color challenge.
When I got the elements together, I decided that it needed something, so I grabbed my Subtles enamel shapes. There are 4 Powder Pink enamel dots in the 4 whole flowers on the top. It just worked out that they surround the die cut circle. There are 3 Pool Party enamel shapes on the bottom in a triangle.
The sentiment is from the All Things Thanks stamp set. I had to use the Stamping Write marker to color just the parts of the sentiment that I wanted. However, I love this font and have colored it in many times to use just the “thank you” portion of the stamp.
Have a Peachy Day!
I simply love your color and pattern combinations on this card, Sue. Thank you for sharing it at the Tic Tac Toe challenge.
Thank you, Rosanne! The challenge color combo is very soothing and subtle.
