The Paper Craft Crew are back with a fun Tic Tac Toe challenge this week #PCC331. It's Jay here and welcome to Mitosu Crafts, thanks so much for stopping by. Below you will find the different Tic Tac Toe elements you can play with and my card idea using Rooted In Nature and Nature's Root Bundle
I opted for the middle line across (Metallic / Monochromatic / Stitched Rectangle) as I wanted to use the other Oxidised Metal panel I created from a previous project which you can see
HERE
The Oxidised Metal panel using the FREE Sale-A-Bration item, Grapefruit Grove Foil was die cut with the Rectangle Stitched Dies. I then decided on my colour combination around the Grapefruit Grove Foil to achieve a monochromatic look for this card. I ended up using the following colours: Cajun Craze, Calypso Coral, Grapefruit Grove and Early Espresso
Stampin' Up! Colour Inspiration
Mitosu Crafts
I stamped the double trees, tone on tone, on Calypso Coral cardstock and die cut with the coordinating dies from Nature's Root
The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Early Espresso and then die cut with the thinnest Rectangle Stitched die
The Grapefruit Grove twine comes from the Nature's Twine pack (which contains 3 other spools of twine in Blackberry Bliss, Crumb Cake and Mint Macaron). I separated a couple of strands, wound around my fingers then adhered with Tear & Tape
For the main tree image, I used the dauber to stamp technique to create an ombre effect. Starting with the lightest colour which in this case is Grapefruit Grove, I applied the ink on the stamp with a dauber from the top down. I then moved on to Calypso Coral and applied the same way as before, this time though overlapping with the previous colour to blend together. This overlapping of colours gives creates a new colour and thus help with the ombre effect. Finally, for the bottom tree trunk which I wanted to be the darkest part, I applied Cajun Craze before die cutting with the co ordinating die from Nature's Root set
