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 holidays with the optional twist of no stamping (sentiment stamp allowed).
I decided to play along with the twist, and looked to my word dies to help me satisfy the challenge. I used a PTI Phrase Play die (joy) and some patterned paper for my card. Quick and easy, once I worked out what I wanted to do.
Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our Design Team and Guest Designer. Our Guest Designer this week is Aileen. We are sponsored this week by Uniko.
Thanks for Visiting

ReplyDeleteGold, black and white ... so wonderfully elegant and stylish, Joyce ... simply beautiful! Just passed a lovely time catching up on your posts over the last few weeks or so of my MIA ... as ever, such inspiration and such fabulous cards ... from the camping v Four Seasons Hotel one(I chose the latter!) through to 12 kits and everything in between! Think the same muse struck me over here as it did you over there for our Time Out rainbow cards ... great minds?! Hugs, Anita :)
