Hoppy Easter for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge

Hello and welcome! It's time for a new Tic Tac Toe Challenge and this week Silke has given us this fun board to spark our imagination!  


I chose to go across the middle row - die cuts, coloring, Easter Bunny, but actually it would also work for the right column or the upper left to bottom right diagonal.

I'm also joining the current challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, where the current theme Use Your Favorite Things.  Well, by far, my favorite things include Copic markers and dies. ;-)


I love these gnomes and have only used this set once, so it was high time to ink it up again!  Besides, my daughter and grandkids will get a kick out of it!  

The gnomes were stamped, colored with Copic markers and die cut with coordinating dies.  The Easter eggs are from another stamp set and were fussy cut after coloring.  For the background, I lightly ink blended Distress Oxide inks and after they dried, the panel was die cut then the sentiment stamped.  


The rest of the card was pretty easy.  The peacock layer was die cut and adhered directly to the white card base, then the embossed strip of light green added.  The inked panel was added using thin foam tape other than over the embossed panel.  Two of the gnomes and the Easter eggs were adhered directly to the inked panel, then our Easter Bunny gnome added with foam tape to finish things off!


Thanks so much for visiting.  Be sure to use the link above to check out the awesome cards by the other DT members and hopefully play along with us this week!

Take care!
