Time Out #51...Reminder...Spring is in the Air



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.

I am still crushing on my new PTI Tulip Time stamps and dies.  I made another spring floral card for this challenge, and this time, I incorporated the 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Here is the card I originally made for this challenge reminder.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.

Stamplorations is our sponsor this week.

I am also linking up at Just Us Girls #333:  Flowers and AAA #59: Embossing.




I hope that you will take some Time Out to play along with us over the next two weeks.  Please see the Time Out challenge blog to see more inspiration from the Design Team.
