 Today I sharing a card I created using the elements from Debbie’s Tic Tac Toe Challenge from her Tombow Blog post on Tuesday.  There is still time to play along (and win a great prize), you can find all of the details here.  
 
For my card, I went down the middle and used Tombow Foam Tabs, Mono Multi and Power Tabs…okay, I threw a little Stamp Runner in there too!
 
 
I loved this new paper collection from Echo Park and I couldn’t wait to create a baby girl card with this adorable print paper.  I used Power Tabs to pop the pink layer up from the base card because Power Tabs have a lower profile than the Foam Tabs, so when you only need a little lift, this is the product to use.  The print papers were adhered to the solid pink panel with Stamp Runner Dots and the cute little die cut onesie was popped up using Foam Tabs because I wanted it to really stand up and be noticed on the card.  I used a tiny bit of Mono Multi to adhere the cute little butterfly to the front of the onesie.
 
Remember, there is still time to play along with the new Tombow Monthly Challenge and have a chance to win the fun prize pack.

I’ve been very into artsy layouts lately. I just love the mess of mists and twine.

 I used the Mono Adhesive Permanent for gluing the photo, mat, layers, view master die cut, glassine bag and clear Maya Road Accent. For the clear grid I only used the Mono Adhesive Permanent in the part behind the photo but, I used my sewing machine on the left to keep it in place.

 I used American Crafts Thickers for the title. to keep the little flags on the layout I used the Tombow Power Tabs.

 For the twine and dew drops I used the Mono Aqua Liquid Glue which is my favorite glue when it comes to make swirls with twine since it dries clear and you won’t see any possible mess.

 I also used the Mono Aqua Liquid Glue for the Sequins. On the side I used the Sew Easy to make the stars.

 

 I hope you enjoy this mess, after all you didn’t clean it up ;)

Hello Tombow Fans,

Starting this month the Tombow DT is going to take turns posting a challenge for you all to play along in AND a chance to win prizes. YAY! You will have one week to complete the challenge and link us up to your project right here on the Tombow Blog. I am your first hostess and my challenge is a “tic tac toe” type of challenge. Looking at the chart below, use 3 Tombow product that create a “tic, tac, toe”.  Create your project and upload to your blog or any other place like FB, Flickr, Splitcoaststampers, etc and then link it here. Please list what 3 products you used in your post.

  Irojiten Color Dictionary  Pencils (any set)

Foam Tabs

Mono Adhesive Permanent

Stamp Runner Dot   OR

Permanent Adhesive

Mono Multi Liquid Glue   Dual Brush Pens

Fastener Tabs

Power Tabs

 

Mono Glue Pen

For my You’re So Tweet project, I chose the diagonal from the top left to bottom right option (Irojiten’s, Mono Multi Liquid Glue, & Glue Pen). I colored this cute Inky Antics’ image with Irojiten Color Dictionary Pencil’s and then blended with Gamsol.

bird front

The box is also a Inky Antics stamp that you just stamp, cut and score and put together. I love using Mono Multi Liquid Glue for these boxes. I know the glue is going to hold and don’t worry about the boxes coming apart.

bird side

The Mono Glue Pen is PERFECT for adding glitter for fine areas (as well as adding adhesive to small pieces). I also used Mono Adhesive Permanent to adhere the circles together.

Now it is your turn to play. I can’t wait to see what you come up with. You have until April 30 midnight to play along.

The Winner will be announced May 1 at 3:30 P.M.

These simple but bold quilled rings are fun to make and wear! I used ring bases, tools and quilling paper strips from my friends at Quilled Creations and Tombow adhesives to make them.

IMG_0447

 

Start by choosing five different colors of 3/8″ quilling strips. Starting with the color for the middle of the target design. Use the slotted quilling tool and a curling coach that I recommend highly for beginner quillers and quill a tight roll. Add a tiny bit of MONO Multi Liquid Glue to the end of the coil and attach the next color. You only need a touch of glue to make an instant and secure bond. Keep on adding the colored strips and rolling. Be careful not to roll too tightly or it will be a little harder to remove from the quilling tool.

IMG_0442

When you have finished with all the colored strips, remove the target from the quilling tool. Place a Power Tab in the middle of the ring. Add a thin line of MONO Multi Liquid Glue to the inside rim and place the target into the ring base. Push down firmly for an instant and permanent bond. Use the MONO Multi to add a rhinestone to the middle of the target to finish this bold ring.
