 Time for another Tic Tac Toe at this week's Retro Rubber #131! There's always so many possibilities with these! After my usual dithering, I ended up with the center horizontal row: embossing - diecut - twine. I got the idea for using our lovely Heirloom Frames while thinking about combining the embossing and cutting - duh! Our frames are MADE for that! And I sure don't use them enough! Of course, they work SO much better now that I broke down and got the "blue plate" for SU!'s detailed folders, lol. Next up was to pick a stamp set to go with, and I knew I wanted to choose a strong sentiment to highlight in that frame. My Plant Hope set from 2010 is just right, and this quote from Lucy Larcom is the whole reason I have saved it all this time, such a perfect thought! Plant Hope Stamp Set (retired 2010); Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla & Pear Pizzazz CS; Memento Tuxedo Black Ink; Cajun Craze, Crumb Cake & Old Olive Blends Markers; Heirloom Frames Dies; Heirloom Frame EF; Very Vanilla Baker's Twine; Gilded Gems; #RR131.

Beautiful as always, Heather! I agree, the "blue" plate makes embossing so much easier, especially with the new folders! Your calm creation is just what we need in these crazy times! Thanks for sharing this at Retro Rubber this week!
