When I saw the tic-tac-toe board from Paper Players #683 on LeAnne's blog Sunday, I knew I'd sneak in a little crafty time this week!
I have a fun die that has hardly seen the light of day - that fun-fold square snuck its way into my choices from their top line: designer paper*, die cut, and ribbon! You'll see what I mean... here are my supplies...
These darling Nordic Flower Heads were a prize from Poppy Stamps
on Instagram - yay! Thanks, Poppy Stamps!

Here is that fun-fold I mentioned - the perfect spot for ribbon, too...
Pinkfresh Studios: A-2 Slider:

All that is necessary to make this mechanism seamless is to remember to keep all the 'adhesive' on the middle portion of the outside section that folds up to reveal a spot for a secret message! This Big Happy Bday die is from The Stamp Market, which I embellished with those Nordic Flowers. The secret sentiment is from my Casual Bouquets Kit from Altenew - which I white heat embossed onto vellum.
Our travel plans were interrupted by an appointment that was completely forgotten - but we are making the best of it with little day trips - Godzilla x King Kong at the IMAX for instance! Neither of us really wanted to see it - but it was fun, and the popcorn was great!
Hope you're having a fun week, too, wherever you are!

*TK brought me a fun little package of papers - including the basket of flowers in the pocket - thank you, friend! They were the perfect weight for that slider!
Thanks, Cynthia at Paper Players! Such an honor!
