Hello everyone: The RETRO RUBBER challenge has a Tic Tac Toe board for you to play with, this is a very popular challenge because you have a lot of choices to pick from. I picked the diagonal row: Pattern Paper/Texture/Color Pens/Pencils/Inks.
This coming September 1st. my hubby and I will be celebrating our 46th. Wedding Anniversary so, I created this card to slip into his lunch bag on that day.
I just love the sentiments on the front panel and on the inside, which complement each other perfectly.
These cute little succulents are from a stamp set by My Favorite Things called "Sweet Succulents", which I bought a year ago last May, way before I made that resolution of not buying any more stuff and I'm so happy I did because I love it.
The pattern paper is from "My Paper Studio", the embossed panel was done with a Tim Holtz embossing folder, the table is stamped with a retired SU set called "Scene in a Garden", from the 2009 Occasions Mini then, fussy cut. The Succulents are stamped on Strathmore Bristol Vellum paper and colored with SU markers and Prismacolor pencils and die cut using the companion die set, the sentiment is from the MFT set.

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
The sentiment and other images are from the MFT set.
I'm playing along with the following challenges.
"BANNERS"
Thank you for stopping by, your comments always make my day.
Hugs.
