Designing for Cardz 4 Guyz (#334) and Case-ing Tuesday (#430).
I selected these four challenges: The elements from the Paper Players (#664) Tic Tac Toe board; The circle theme suggested by both Stampin’ Up! Only (#338) and Double Trouble (#151); and Use Your Stuff (#496) partnering with Double Trouble for the Anything Goes theme.
Here is the result:
Steps:
- Card Base: (7” x 6” scored at 3½”) Early Espresso cardstock.
- Accent Mat: (5½” x 2½”) Gray Granite cardstock.
- The bottom of the Mat was wrapped with Very Vanilla Baker’s Twine.
- Focal Panel: (2” x 6”) Knit Sweater patterned piece of paper from the All About Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper pack.
- Circles: (1¾”) Early Espresso and Gray Granite cardstock die-cut with one of the Circle dies from the Deckled Circles Dies set.
- Decoration – I love you and I: Very Vanilla and Red cardstock scraps from my bin.
- The Letter dies are from the Alphabet A La Mode Dies set.
- The Heart die is from the On-Line Exclusives Radiating Stitches Dies set.
- Sentiment: Red cardstock scrap.
- The word, Together, from one of the sentiment stamps from the retired Splendid Thoughts stamp set was inked with Versamark ink and heat-set with White Embossing Powder.
- The Word was die-cut with the Arrow Banner die from the All That Dies set.
All elements were adhered to resemble the sketch. The Together Banner was popped up with Dimensionals.
What a cozy card. Just like an “older couple” who has spent years being “in love” with each other.

What a cozy Valentine, Jolanda! And a great anniversary card. I love that you used the sweater texture underneath the circles and that’s a creative way to get a message across in the minimum number of letters. Thanks for playing along with us again at SUO Challenges!
