COME PLAY TIC TAC TOE WITH THE SCRAPS TO TREASURE TEAM



Welcome to the Scraps ToTreasure Team 
Tic Tac Toe Blog Hop

Our hop today started at Robin's blog (be sure you started there as she is offering some fun blog candy!), it moves next to Camille and finally you will have arrived here!

For today's hop I started by choosing my row from our Tic Tac Toe board.



I chose the left diagonal row - Paint/Blue/Embossing

Next I went to the scrap pile and pulled out a selection of blue and silver papers.


I decided to use sketch #232 from Sweet Sketch Wednesday.


I inked the edges of my card base, selected some of my scraps and cut them to size 




After that I chose an embossing folder with snowflakes and embossed one of my blue scraps.  After it was dry embossed I decided to add a bit of pizzazz to it by doing some heat embossing.

Then I took an old chipboard box and diecut a snowflake with a Sizzix die.  I painted it with a Ranger Snow Cap Paint Dauber and then I added some of that sparkley embossing powder and heat embossed this as well.  I added a bit of bling in the center.

I had a scrap piece of snowflake ribbon which I added over one of the scraps and I stamped my greeting on one of the silver scraps and cut it to size.

And finally - here is my card:




I am also entering this in Divas by Design Something Snowy challenge, 4 Crafty Chicks challenge #168 Snowflakes, Creative Knockouts challenge #11 - Make it Sparkle and Crafty Creations challenge #248 - Dies and Punches.

Thanks for joining us for our game of Tic Tac Toe!
