Hi everybody and welcome to another NSD Challenge! I hope that you all are enjoying the games from earlier in the week, and the challenge from yesterday. I always love event weeks here at TDP, so lets get geared up for some more fun!

I am here to introduce you to one of today's challenges. If you have been around since last NSD or DSD, you will recognize the general concept of this challenge because I have hosted the "Stuck In the Middle", and "Stuck On the Edge" challenges during those events.
For this challenge participants must create a layout on which every item used on the page must be touching a grid that is TIC-TAC-TOE-shaped (or in other words... 4 lines (2 horizontal and 2 vertical) that create a 3x3 grid of equal-sized squares). Participants can create their grid out of anything they like -- lines drawn in their photo editing program... stitching... paper strips... strings... etc. (be creative!) -- so long as the basic 3x3 grid shape is totally recognizable and clear. And then... EVERY item that goes onto the layout must be touching that grid shape. Grids can be any size the participants desire (and as long as any additions are touching the original 3x3 grid, the grids can even be expanded into other-shapes of grids)... grids can be rotated/skewed/etc... but the base grid of 3x3 must be visible and easy to locate.
Here's my example:
