So, here's this week's 100th Challenge Tic Tac Toe. It's choc full of celebration goodness. Don't forget that even for our birthday, you need to use a stamp that's at least one year old and tell us how old that stamp is.
I went for the first vertical line: balloons - ink smooshing - glitter or sparkle.
I started off with Balloon Celebration, which first appeared in the 2016 Occasions catalogue. I stamped a couple of balloons on silver foil using StazOn, then cut one from silver glimmer paper to add that sparkle element. There's more glimmer paper in the die cut behind the sentiment and a few silver sequins to add to the shine.
Help us celebrate 100 Challenges. Don't forget to leave a comment to be in to win a prize.
