Merry Monday #270 Tic Tac Toe

 We have a tic tac toe challenge from Kelly this week at the Merry Monday Challenge!
I took the row going down with stamping, die cutting, and red!
This was very fun to do.
I colored in the Altenew Poinsettia and Pine stamp (just the poinsettia!!) after I masked off a one inch strip in the center.  My Christmas word die is from PTI Wet Paint: Holiday and I die cut it twice.

Well friends, this is the last Merry Monday challenge for this year 2017!  We will see you back on Monday January 8th!
May you all have a most blessed and wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year too!!




Heart Hugs, friends!
