Guest Designing for Tic Tac Toe

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I'm excited and honored to be Guest Designing today for the
Tic Tac Toe Challenge.


This time of year is my favorite with the leaves changing, smells of fall, and cooler, 
crisp days.

There was this panel of embossed leaves on sitting on my table that was perfect
for this time of year.

I added some die cut and watercolored leaves.  Some were cut and colored already.
Some were done just for this card. 

A little twine and I thought it was done.

Then I thought maybe some Nuvo drops would look good.  But I got a glob
and in trying to rub it away, it left some sheen on the leaf.  So I did the same to
the other leaves.

Here's the Tic Tac Toe board.


I used the column in the middle: Leaves/Foliage, Thank You, Die Cut(s)

I hope you'll check out the inspiration cards the Design Team has done and play along

Congratulations of another GD gig! Bonnie, you may have just created a 'new technique!' Lovely embossing, FALL-tastic leaves! [hey, i just used that linen twine! I love it when we craft together without even knowing it! x]

Congrats on your GD spot. What a lovely card, those colours are gorgeous and I love the textured background and string detail. You are a master at getting over the little mishaps that happen with most cards. I must learn from that, I get so very frustrated with mine xx

Congrats on your guest spot, Bonnie! It's a beautiful card with the leaves over embossed background. I'd say your glob accident is very happy! I have never thought to use Nuvo drops in that way, but thinking I might try it. Thanks!

I love what you did with all these beautiful leaves, Bonnie. So simple a card, but just gorgeous. The embossing is wonderful, and your beautifully colored leaves are the perfect compliment. I am a disaster with Nuvo drops and anything like them and I had a laugh when you globbed and immediately found a way to make the glob part of your beautiful card! Thanks so much for playing with us at Just Us Girls with this beauty!

Congrats on your GD spot, Bonnie, well deserved! I'm gonna have to raid your embossing folders again. You're showcasing some truly beautiful ones. Your watercolor leaves look very real.
