Sensational Saturday with SCH.


It is Saturday and it is another sensational one at Sugar Creek Hollow. This week we want you to create your vintage, shabby chic or primitive inspired card or paper crafted project and play TIC TAC TOE.
For my card I used the image called Vintage Roxann by A day for Daisies. I printed out this dress on some pink dotted paper and added some sparkle and flower soft to the dress as well as feathers. 
From the tic tac toe board I used the center line, Glitter, flowers and pearls.


Using the game board shown below, choose any row horizontally, vertically or diagonally and add the three items in that row to your project.  Just remember that all three items you use must come from the same row and all must be on your project.




We have another wonderful sponsor this week. A Day for Daisies will be providing our random winner with a $12 gift card to their store, which is filled with beautiful digital stamps.







The random winner will also receive a Sugar Creek Hollow badge to display on her blog. The Design Team will choose a Card of the Week and the creator will not only receive a Sugar Creek Hollow badge but will also be in the running for a Guest Designer spot.

As always, the Design Team has created some inspiration for you and this time we have all used a wonderful image from A Day for Daisies. looking forward to see what you create for us over at SCH.  If you would like more details on each of the cards, just click on the designer's name and you will be taken right to their blog.
