MM #51



Popping with a card for this week's Merry Monday Challenge.  I am getting into the groove with Christmas cards for next year. This week's theme is Tic Tac Toe, your card need to include elements from the Tic Tac Toe board either across, diagonal or up and down.  I chose across the top row--red, dry embossing and ribbon.  I am also submitting this to Simon Says Stamps Anything Goes.





All supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted.

Cardstock:  White, Pure Poppy
Stamps: Let it Snow (Lawn Fawn)
Ink:  True Black
Embossing: Snowflakes (Cuttlebug)
other: Pure Poppy saddle stitch ribbon

I don't think it's possible to have a bow tied more perfectly than this one. I need to attend bow-making 101 one of these days. Fun card, Tracey!
