  1. I had lots of fun using the Tic Tac Toe board this week for my cards, especially the felt! One of my cards will go to my neighbor who was nice enough to take care of our garden and mail last week while we were on vacation. The other card will go to my great aunt who is under the weather and loves flowers.

  2. Another amazing challenge and fabulous DT samples. I always enjoy playing along, and the nudge to Share Joy. I'm sending my card to my niece, Audranna, in Minnesota to remind her she is loved. My sister, Audra (her mom), passed away from brain cancer a year and a half ago. I try to send her kids little reminders of their mom's love for them so that they will NEVER forget her. This challenge helps me do that, so thank you for that nudge.

  3. This card is on its way to CA and my BFF's granddaughter, age 8, who has been sending my drawings to use on my cards and loves the special cards I make. The shaker card will delight her.

  4. What a fun challenge - I love the Tic-Tac-Toe board! I went with shaker, red, glitter for my card (entry #8). It's a Christmas card - I'm doing Christmas in July - this card was made specifically for one of my friends who loves cats as much as I do, but it won't be mailed until December! Thanks so much for the inspiration!

  5. Ditto for my second entry (#9). I went with shaker, red, glitter again! Again, it's a Christmas card and this was made specifically for a family member. It won't be mailed until December! I have to start my Christmas cards early or I'd never get them done! I'm doing Christmas in July! Thanks for your fun challenge - I love to make shaker cards!

  6. I just entered my third card (#11)! I love your Tic-Tac-Toe board! I went with shaker, red, glitter again! This card was made specifically for a member of my family but it won't be mailed until December. As mentioned, I'm doing Christmas in July so I can get some of my cards done ahead of time - I'd never be able to make them all if I waited until November! Thanks so much for the inspiration and for the beautiful samples by your design team!
