It’s time for another Tic Tac Toe Challenge!
Here’s this week’s inspiration board.

I chose to go on the diagonal with embossing, Free, and Pink.
Here’s my card.

This week’s Tic Tac Toe Challenge inspired me to try a new technique. I used the Eyelet Blooms Die to emboss my background. Here is the secret to this technique—Stampin’ Up!’s New Impression Plate.

Use the Impressions Plate with Impressions Dies for best cutting and embossing results. Adding this plate to your sandwich results in precise die-cut images and detailed embossing. *Directions for both embossing and die cutting are included with the Impressions Plate.
Here’s a picture showing the Eyelets Bloom Die embossed and die cut.

Adding the Impressions Plate to your “sandwich” before running it through your Die Cutting/Embossing Machine will take it from cutting through your paper to simply embossing it. Super simple, right? Here’s the order you’ll want to make your sandwich:
- Base Plate #1 on the bottom
- Clear Plate #2
- Die *Tip: Place the die with the cutting edge up
- Cardstock (on top of die)
- Impressions Plate
- Plate #4 (Gray – used for 3D embossing) on top
It is so cool how it looks like it is quilted!

Today’s card is another one of my “go to” designs from my Just Stampin’ Sketchbook. You can create it with any embossing folder, patterned paper, circle punch (or die), stamped sentiment, and ribbon. I used the 2 3/8 Circle Punch with the Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Barely Blush cardstock & ribbon (one of the NEW 2026-20228 In Colors).
You can view/shop the products used to create this card below.
I hope you’ll head over to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge to see what the other Design Team Members created. Then Pick 3 and play along! It’s so much fun and easy to do!
Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!
