# 423 TIC TAC TOE

Hello! Welcome back to the new challenge!

We hope you are doing well and creating up a storm!

Here's our new challenge!

It's TIC TAC TOE!

I borrowed this off the internet, so a big thank you to the original creator! Pick any three in a line and incorporate that into your project for this challenge. To really challenge yourself, try to do a black out and use everything! Be sure to tell us which line you used!

Have fun and we look forward to seeing what inspires you from this board.!

Gail

I went across the top to use flower(s), watercolour and a fun fold card.

Julene

I went bottom left to top right to make this cute card for a male who is sick.

Paper piecing , butterfly and fun fold.

That is a tissue in the pocket that I folded.

Doreen

I chose the right-hand column

- Fun Fold

- Stripes

- Any Shade of Purple

Thanks to this challenge I now know how to make paper pinwheels

I learned from a tutorial on You Tube while I was looking for ideas for "Fun Fold"

Helen

I used one of the diagonal lines: flower - butterfly - any shade of purple. I used Distress Ink to colour and stamp my background and then Stampin' Up Gorgeous Grape ink to colour my stamped butterfly. The flower is a paper embellishment just below the antennae.

Heather R

I decided to go down the diagonal and went with flower, butterfly and any shade of purple...

Amanda

I also went on the diagonal of flower, butterfly and any shade of purple!

#422: Stencils on a Project

Stephanie:

I used a small box stencil along with gray spray ink to create my own background paper to accent this picture of my daughter having a glass of juice with a magnolia garnish poolside.

Helen

I used a Memory Box tree stencil with Distress Inks to create a winter scene. I added a snow drift at the bottom of the trees using a die and then a deer using a die from Stampin' Up.

Tammy

I finally got to use this Vicki Boutin stencil that I received in a SCT sampler years ago. I thought the butterflies would be perfect for some rainbow stenciling for a Mother's Day card for my mom.
