April 10, 2019 Tic Tac Toe

This week the challenge over at The House that Stamps Built one of my favorite challenge is up this week.  Tic-Tac-Toe - so many possibilities.  I chose to go with the top row across Easter, Washi Tape and Pastel colors. 

For this challenge I used 920-I Cross Window and 1304-J Beauty of Springtime .  I recently got the Cross Window - and I embossed it in black and then colored with copic markers and a gold gel pen on the cross.  I had some watercolor wash DP that I used on the outside of the card, using a die to cut a square in the middle to place my focal image.  I mounted it on black - making the focal image stand out.  The Beauty of Springtime has a sentiment as well as the Happy Easter - I only used the Happy Easter on my card.  My washi tape is the crosses on the bottom of the card.  I had gotten this to use on a scrapbook page of my baptism.  Worked perfectly. 

 Now it is your turn to make a card using the challenge of  Tic-Tac-Toe  -  and  as you can see there are a lot of possibilities for this challenge.  You have a full month to enter our challenge to win.  You do not have to use Repeat Impressions stamps but if you do you will be entered twice for the drawing of a $25 gift certificate to Repeat Impressions. 

If you look on my right side bar I also have a discounted coupon for you to use when you go shopping at Repeat Impressions.
Now why not take a look at our DT Rock Stars for inspiration and to get you started.

Very pretty Easter card. I love the way you've framed your image. I had to look really closely at your photo to see that the crosses at the bottom were actually the design on a piece of washi tape.

What a beautiful image for an Easter card, Shirley! Your coloring of the tulips is lovely, as is your wonderful background wash! And great idea to back the image with black to make it POP! Hugs, Darnell
