Hello friends! It's time for a new challenge at the Paper Players and since it's the fifth Sunday of the month, that means Tic-Tac-Toe. The amazing Ann is hosting and has given us a great board from which to draw inspiration.
For my card, I went diagonal from top left to bottom right - die cut, flowers, layers.
I'm also joining in at Just Us Girls for their Anything Goes Stencil Week challenge.
The pinks are from the Altenew Blushberry Bliss quad - Strawberry, Dusty Pink, Blush Rose and Raspberry Sunset. The flowers were colored with Strawberry, Blush Rose and Rasberry, and then I used a light application of Dusty Pink on the stenciled background panel.
The floral image was die cut then layered on two additional die cuts. It was added to the stenciled panel after it had been cut with a diagonal stitch rectangle die. I trimmed off the overhanging parts of the floral image after adhering it to the panel, which was then added to the card front. The sentiment is from the same stamp set. The final touch was to add several sequins.
It'll be fun to see which column or row everyone chooses to use. For more inspiration, I encourage you to visit the challenge blog, where my wonderful teammates have some gorgeous inspiration for you. The challenge will remain open until Friday, April 3rd at 3pm EDT. I hope to see you there!
Thanks for stopping by!

LOVE these colors! Not only do they look amazing, especially for florals, but the names make my mouth water! Fabulous background and stunning flower!
This is so pretty! I like the softness of the stencilled background, then the way you've turned up the volume with the colours in the central bloom. You've chosen a beautiful colour combination too. Great card!
