“You are such a blessing” is a sentiment we should never hesitate in telling our friends and family. It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players.
It’s Tic Tac Toe week, and the mega-talented Anne Marie has created one of the best grids ever for our stamping fun! I selected the diagonal consisting of yellow &/or orange, texture, and Fall/Thanksgiving. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
Sometimes all a picture needs to make it shine is a fabulous frame. Sometimes all a card needs to pull all the parts together is a Fabulous Frames die cut! This Cajun Craze frame serves as an anchor to ground all of the parts of this fun fall vignette. Placing the pumpkin on the frame itself certainly adds depth and dimension. Pearls and a linen thread bow are the perfect finishing touches.

Nueve’s Notes
Hey, everyone! It’s me, Nueve! Mom said that by the time you are reading this, I would be on my way home from Washi-ton, and my ‘venture would be over. As much as I LOVED meeting my brother, Brady the Boy, and my Auntie Kia, it will be nice to get back home to see sister Sixxy and Uncle GQ.
We did so much on our last days there. We went to a place called Whidbey Eyeland. To get there, I had to ride on a fairy. I was wondering how I would ever fit on a fairy, but Mom explained it was a “ferry” boat. It was gray and rainy, so I stayed in the van. It was kind of scary, because you couldn’t see the land, just lots of water.
Once we got to the eyeland, we hiked down to the beach. I actually stepped in water that connects to the Pawcific Oshun. It was bigger than the Missy Pibby Ribber! Can you believe it?
Mom didn’t get very many pictures of us on the eyeland, because she left her phone in the van. Silly Mom! The next day we went to Bridle Trails State Park and went hiking. This is my brother, Brady the Boy, ahead of me. His friend, Korin, is in the lead with Auntie Kia. Auntie Kia gets to go first because she is the Alpha out here, just like sister Sixxy is the Alpha at my house. Alphas are very special, and you must always be respectful to them.
We saw beautiful trees. They were SO big. Even the leaves are bigger out here. Here is a picture of a leaf I found. I gave it to my Mom. She took a picture so she could remember it forever.
I also saw my first horse. This one followed me down the hill, and scared me a little. It is bigger than a Great Dane, and has the strangest bark. His owner was very nice, and told me I didn’t need to run away. I’ve decided I want a pony for Christmas.
On our last Sunday here, we went to see Lake Washi-ton. It was so pretty, that Mom and I took lots of pictures. Then Mom realized that she didn’t have any make-up on. I don’t wear make-up when I play show dog, so I think it’s OK that she didn’t wear any.
I love my Mom even when she doesn’t have make-up on. Loving is part of my job. I am a working dog. I am Good Boy Nueve!

For this week’s challenge, we are inspired by National Family PJ Day. Remember, at Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate or make a card for the occasion featured. Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project. I used family sentiment, circles, and square card to create my card. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!
