This month, we have a Tic Tac Toe theme. We really hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations the Pals are sharing with you! As you hop from blog to blog, we love reading your comments. Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I did the tic tac toe in two directions, straight down the middle and across the bottom. I considered doing the whole board, but couldn’t figure out how to make a mother’s day and father’s day card in one. 🙂 I used my favorite returning embossing folder- Painted Posies and paired it with new colors and new ribbon.
