Happy Thursday! I am honored to be the designer for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge this week. I had so much fun creating with this week’s board!
I was inspired to use all 9 elements on my card this week! Woo Hoo!
Can you find all 9?

I love to give books as gifts and knew the True Story stamp set and dies from Concord & 9th would get lots of use in my craft room!
I used Stampin’ Up!’s With You In Mind stamp set on the inside of my card.

With You In Mind is one of my favorite sentiment stamp sets! It has you covered for all different occasions.

I decorated the “spines” of the books with die cuts, embossing, and different sentiments and images.

I love to use Stampin’ Up! clear envelopes to decorate a gift bag with the handmade card. It’s quick & easy and makes a great presentation!
(Can guess what’s in the bag?)

What was the last book (or a favorite book) you read? I just finished Counting Miracles by Nicholas Sparks and am currently reading The Invisible Life of Addie Larue by V.E. Schwab. I’m catching up on my reading while I try to stay off my feet and recover!
I hope you’ll head over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see the wonderful projects the Design Team came up with this week. Then Pick 3 and play along…we’d love to see what you create!
Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Outstanding card dies! I love how you put them together! I think I must have these dies!! Thanks for sharing!!
Have a lovely weekend!
Thanks Karen! If it’s anything books or beach related I have to have it!!! LOL
I would love to know how you created your spines on your books? A tab punch?
As stated in my blog, they are the True Story dies from Concord & Ninth. Cuts the card shape and individual spines.
Would love to see a tutorial on the “book” card!!!! Or just written instructions!!!!
thank you, Betty, Kaiser
The dies cut the book shaped card and the spines. You really don’t need any instructions…just decorate the spines then adhere. Easy peasy!
And how lucky am I to have received this very special card!! I actually have it displayed on my shelves with all my books and it looks great! It is treasured. P.S. I now own those stamps and dies, too!!!
It was bought with you in mind! I can’t wait to see what you create with this set! Bonus- my daughter loved your card so now I have to make one for her!!! 🙂
