There is still time to play along with our current challenge at Time Out. This week our challenge is a theme with an optional twist.
Easter or Spring with an optional twist of masking.
After stamping my main bunch of tulips in various shades of yellow, I masked those tulips off and stamped two more smaller tulips in various shades of orange.
Here is the card I originally made for this challenge reminder.
I forgot to use the optional twist of masking, so I made another card for the challenge, and I am just showing this pink one for fun. Even thought the twist is optional, I do try to use it on at least one of my cards to set a good example and hopefully provide inspiration on the twist.
Our guest designer this time is TaeEun so please make sure to stop by and see what she has made for this challenge.
