Time Out #55...Congratulations




It's time for a new challenge at Time Out.  Our challenge this week is a theme challenge with an optional twist.

The theme is celebrations with the optional twist of die cutting or fussy cutting.



I made a card to congratulate my neice who will be going to Tufts next year.  I decided to twist both ways--I used a paper clippings die from PTI and fussy but a Lawn Fawn elephant (which is the school mascot).



I am also linking up at AAA Cards #62:  Anything Goes.


Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our Design Team and Guest Designer. Our Guest Designer this week is Elizabeth.  We are sponsored this week by CAS-ual Fridays Stamps.


Thanks for Visiting
