Tic Tac Toe

I wanted to make something a little different for my Designs on Cloud 9 DT project this week. So I was thinking about games and vacation and how my daughter loves to play Tic Tac Toe with us, so this is what I came up with.... I hope you like it.

I will try to give you an idea of how I made this. I apologize in advance for my horrible directions as I am not very good at explaining things.

1. I imported the sun and palm tree from the Pink Paradise pattern set and the flip flops from flip flop family set into SCAL2

2. I added a rounded edge rectangle from the SCAL shapes library

3. overlapped, sized and postitioned them the way I wanted them

4. copied the resized files and pasted them onto page 2 in scal

5. went back to page 1 and then unioned (made one piece) the sun, palm and rectangle together

6. I cut the board and the base of the flip flops out of heavy duty cereal boxes

7. I then cut all the seperated pieces out of card stock and patterend paper

8. chalked, inked doodled and assembled.

Now I need to laminate all the pieces so they can actually stand up to a lot of handling.

Sorry again about my horrible directions.

Thanks for visiting!

Guest Design Spot for ScrappyDew ~ 2nd post

I was asked to Guest Design for ScrappyDew.com

check out their Facebook page - fun games and inspiration using their files

So, this is the cute little 1 page layout I came up with...

I used the slide from their Outdoor Palz "At the Park Kids" set

The set also comes with a swing set (boy & girl), teeter totter (boy, girl & bear)

Go have a look-see at their files... Rob has some cute stuff & he has a lot of tutorials (great info)

I also used the sun from Beary Sweet Designs Cutting files & Digi images (sister site to The Beary Scrap)

The cloud is a shape from SCAL2 shapes library.
