Loving plaids for autumn!

Hello friends!  It's time for a new Challenge at Tic Tac Toe and Betty has some wonderful options for us for this go round. 

Oh yes please, plaid it is for me! I tried my new SSS Stripes and Plaid Builder Stencils and made my own plaid for today's card. Have a look.  



I chose Distress Oxide inks to create the plaid in Scattered Straw, Dried Marigold, Barn Door, and Mahogany. A skinny strip over the colors is White craft ink. This was so much fun, I can't wait to do it again! 


The middle row across is what I went with: Plaid, FREE, Foliage but I also included Orange, Die Cuts, and Embossing.  The leaves (Penny Black) were die cut of card stock and smooshed to include additional hues. The embossed sentiment (Gina K) was placed atop a tag embellished with a twine bow. 

I can't wait to see what you will make! Thanks for your visit, and be sure to check the great samples Team X has for you. Mostly we want you to have fun!

Be yourself

         Have delight in your craft 

               Make something beautiful!

Cindy, your plaid background is wonderful, especially given the fact that it's stenciled. You did a great job. This is such a pretty autumn card.
