It’s Your Day! – Tic Tac Toe Challenge #68

Guess what day it is – it’s Thursday! and that means I’m back with a brand new Tic Tac Toe Challenge Board! Woot Woot! Today’s board was designed by challenge creator Felicita and has some fun options!

I went with the far right column Summer, Scene, and free (YAY for free!!):

Details:

  • I have a guilty secret – creating scenes scares me!! Anytime someones gives me a set of directions, I’m only good for about three, after that, forget it, I just can’t remember them all, the same principle applies when creating a scene. I’m only good for about three steps and then I lose sight of the vision. So when I saw that on the board – eek!!
  • Ditto goes for stamp sets that are multi-layer like the one I used here, Mountain Air. So I kept my scene simple with only two layers of scene. I used a sponge to add blue to the tree layer in the hopes that it would look like a lake, and backed everything with Seaside Spray card stock for the sky.

  • I framed my (summer) scene out with the Nested Labels dies and added my fly fisherman on top. I used a simple sentiment on the right to balance out the fisherman on the left and then offset the sentiment just to be quirky 🙂

  • I kept the interior blank so the card can be used for various occasions, probably a birthday or Father’s Day.
  • Did you see the fun flies I stamped on the envelope flap? Such a cute stamp!!

I hope you are feeling inspired by today’s Tic Tac Toe Challenge Board and that you will join in on the fun! Be sure to check out the rest of the Tic Tac Toe Challenge Design Team’s designs for lots more inspiration!

      Hi Karen! Thank you for your sweet comment! I am doing well, busy in Montana with remodeling 😳 I am convinced I can survive it but some days I wonder! Can’t wait to get back to papercrafting! Hope you are well! Xx

    Shannon, I love this card. Partly because I, too, have an scene building issue but mostly because it’s a fabulous masculine card.

      Rosanne, thank you for the love! We should start a group called Scene Builders Anonymous, lol, where we can work on overcoming our issues! 🤣

    Wow! Shannon who would have thought we both struggled with the board this week… eek! I created it. You rock the board this week with an amazing scene and awesome masculine card to seal the deal. Love it.

      Thanks Felicita! So sweet, but I don’t think the issue was the board! 😉 I think we both overcame our challenges admirably! Xx
