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! 

  

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE SCRAPS TO TREASURES TEAM!!!

Welcome to the Scraps to Treasure Team Big Birthday Party Hop!

The party started Robin's blog at http://scrapandchat.blogspot.com/

You should have arrived here from Camille at http://shortonideasaz.blogspot.com/

In honor of this special occasion we all created birthday themed projects.  We create all of our projects using scraps from prior projects.

Here is the pile of scraps I chose to work from:

I chose to make a few birthday cards.  

For the first one I chose the color palette challenge TPE212 from The Pink Elephant.

And sketch #306 from Mojo Monday!

and my first card:

for my second card I took color challenge TSG220 from There She Goes .

and sketch #211 from Tuesday Morning Sketches:

and card #2:

And for my final card I chose color palette #108 from My Craft Spot-

and Sweet Sketch #218 from Sweet Sketch Wednesday.

I felt that the papers I chose gave a masculine feel to it so rather than a flower I chose to embellish it with a gear and a clock.

Here's my last card:

and now I have a birthday present for a lucky commenter I will choose at random.  In order to qualify you must be a follower of all the blogs in the hop and to have left a comment on each one.
