Share Joy Challenge 11

Hi everyone! It’s Thursday and that means it’s time for a new Share Joy Challenge! Today we have a sketch and/or Tic-Tac-Toe challenge. I am really starting to love these Tic-Tac-Toe challenges. I really like the flexibility because some times the card I have planned in my head turns into something completely different as I make it. 🙂

I have had the Simply Stamped Pinecones stamp set from Taylored Expressions on my desk pretty much forever because I have been wanting to use them but I didn’t have just the right idea until this week week when I saw the plaid element to the tic-tac-toe challenge and just knew I could use them. I kept my layout nice and simple so the pinecones would be the star of the show.

My tic-tac-toe elements are plaid, glitter, button(s).

This card is going to be sent to a close friend from college that lives out of state for her Christmas card. I don’t always get to make a handmade card for all my family/friends but I do try to send out as many as I can and this one will be for her. 🙂
