Tic Tac Toe Challenge

Time for another Team O challenge at Tic Tac Toe Challenge.  I chose the left hand column.

This is one of those cards that really should have been fairly easy (and it was).  I had it pretty much planned out when I started.  My only hang up came with the embossing paste.  Apparently, it gets pretty hard after you open it!  Yup.  The last time I used embossing paste was probably two years ago.  So I ended up throwing out three jars of the stuff (in various colors.)  My first choice for the background was not this sparkly one, but oh well.  It was what I had that wasn't either a totally random color or a brick!  I could have used ink in the background but I really wanted it tone on tone.

And so my card sparkles!  A lot!
