The House That Stamps Built: Tic-Tac-Toe

No photo description available.
Tic-Tac-Toe fun at The House That Stamps Built this week.  I went
with the center row: Gems, Shimmer and Pink.
I embossed then blended my background with Distress Oxides: Cracked
Pistachio, Squeezed Lemonade, and Worn Lipstick.  I spritzed it
with shimmer spray (it shows up much better in real life.)
Repeat Impressions image and sentiment ( Lupine and Happy moments)
were stamped in Memento Rose Bud and then VersaMark and then
clear embossed.  Die cuts from StampIn Up, Tim Holtz embossing folder,
 and gems from my stash.

Beautiful card. I love how you colored the background over the embossing folder. I'm so sorry you had trouble linking up. I'm trying out a new link up tool provider, and it seems there are still some bugs to work out. I did see your project, and deleted the duplicate entries. I've sent the provider a note asking for a bug fix. If it happens again, your project probably uploaded despite the error you received. Feel free to leave a comment, and I'll make sure your project is there. Thank you so much for your patience. Thanks for sharing your card at Crafting Happiness Challenges. I hope you'll link up again!

Beautiful - ask me how I know - because I saw this IRL-and the shimmer is very very pretty. Love how you sponged color over the embossed background. Love the special rounded corners.

Loving that blended background that lends a serene look and feel to this pretty card! The embossing just adds so much more eye appeal too! Beautiful

I like the creative way you made this card. The Lupine does not need to be colored and I really like that.
