Tag, You're It: NSD Challenge 2015

Colleen said Tag, You're IT!  Break out those tags and used them on a project instead of HOARDING them!  Ok, ok.  Now since I am hosting a few challenges myself and will need some Thank you cards to send out with the goodies, I figured this may be a good place for me to use those tags.

This was really fun challenge because I got to play with some bright polka dolts, some baker's twine AND gold embossing powder.  swoon!  And I'll be able to get those goodies out the door that much faster when the challenge times are up.  Be sure to stop over at Colleen's blog and see all her wonderful loveliness.  She's got a great layout using tags.  Thanks for stopping by and dig out those tags!

~NSD Challenge - Tic Tac Toe

Last weekend, several crafty ladies hosted a National Scrapbook Day Challenge on the Cricut Message Board and their blogs.  Each posted a project with a different challenge for us to play along.  There are PRIZES for these challenges.  ;-)  Of course, that's not why I played.  I love a good challenge and I've managed to get quite  a few done this week, even while working.  We have until Sunday at 8pm to finish.

The first challenge I did was Scrapalette's challenge called Tic Tac Toe - Three in a Row.  We had to pic 3 elements of the following and post a project. 

I engaged my trusty assistant Tacoah again, to select a project from TBBM2.  She of course picked the bride favor box even though we don't know ANYONE getting married.  I cut this at 8.5 inches.  I also cut an overlay for the dress from vellum and ran it through my cuttlebug using Swiss Dots.  The flowers were something I picked up at Joann's and I also added lace to the bottom.  So my tic tac toe was cuttlebug, box and flower.  Thanks for stopping by!
