I really enjoy the #TTTC weekly challenges because of the flexibility of available options. This week, I decided to follow the top row of thank you, sequins, and all things round. Thank you and all things round was pretty easy to conquer. Sequins? Not so much. I’m just not a fan of sequins, I don’t get how to attach them and they just don’t work in my comfort zone sense of order. However, I met the challenge and used 3. Yipee!
Here’s my card:
Turns out I used quite a bit of Tranquil Tide this weekend. I didn’t realize just how much until I started posting pictures on FB. The DSP is the Naturally Eclectic (LOVE the patterns and colors). I punched out the circles and just flipped the paper over then popped up each on a mini-dimensional. The inner circle is Lemon Lime Twist, with a Tranquil Tide stamped sentiment. This font is one of my very favorites! Mat circle in Tranquil Tide sitting on a Whisper White doilie. I thought the card needed a little bit of something and just threaded Whisper White bakers twine under the smallest circle and tied a neat little bow. Added the 3 sequins and ta-dah! I was done.

The #tttc008 is always interesting because of the 8 choices using the tic tac toe board. This week, I chose bottom row of square, feminine, and doilies. For some strange and unknown reason, I thought that animal was in there, which explains the puppy.
I used the new to me Naturally Eclectic DSP and I really like all of the papers. The stripes and Powder Pink paper worked well for feminine, as least IMHO. I need a card for my soon-to-be-born great niece, and thought this would be perfect. I added the doilie peeking out of the square layers and wrapped some Pool Party ribbon around the base layers. Obviously, I am still having challenges with ribbon bows, so I’ve just got a square knot. I used the Stitched Shapes framelits for the puppy and greeting Whisper White square. I wanted to make sure I really emphasized the feminine, so I used my Powder Pink fine marker to just color in the the stitched lines.

#WWYS126 this week is to use the Label Me Pretty SU stamp set, for which I also used the punch. I just got this gorgeous Naturally Eclectic DSP yesterday and couldn’t wait to use it. The colors I used to accent this paper are Berry Burst and Night of Navy. This bundle makes a simple card very special and the sentiments in the set are versatile. The punch also fits many sentiments from other stamp sets.
