I remembered I had yet to ink up the tic-tac-toe image in the A Happy Heart set when I saw Barbara’s Cupcake Hugs and Kisses, Tic Tac Toe Style card in her SCS gallery. According to the Featured Stamper rules, you are to change at least two things on the original card, and I changed plenty! My little 3″ x 3″ Valentine has different colors and images, and has no cupcakes at all.
You may be wondering how I managed to pull two pieces of the Alpine ribbon through the ribbon slide. Well, I didn’t. I first tied a little piece of linen thread to the slide, then pulled the front ribbon through, hiding the linen thread. I adhered the ribbon to the card with Sticky Strip (both front and inside) and I tied the inside/back ribbon to the ribbon slide with the linen thread.
Thanks for stopping by!
