Time Out #206...Hello My Sweet Friend







It is time for a new challenge at Time Out.  We challenge you to make a card inspired by this quote:


"A friend is one who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden."


This quote inspired me to make a friendship card using flowers in my design. I used Ruffled Flowers stamps from our lovely sponsor, Altenew for my card.  These stamps are layering stamps, and they are quite easy to line up.  My sentiment starts with a die cut 'hello' from Altenew Hello and Hugs.




Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our fabulous Guest Designer, Nancy Leppek, and the Time Out Design Team.  Altenew is our sponsor for this challenge.  Details for the prize are on the Time Out Challenge Blog.


This challenge will run for 2 weeks.  I hope you will take some Time Out of your busy schedule to play along with us.

Time Out #205...Happy Pal-entine's Day






It is time for a new challenge at Time Out.  We challenge you to be In Love.  What a fun challenge, just as I am turning my attention to Valentines day.  But, you don't have to make a Valentine.  Be inspired by anything or anyone you love.  (Could even be loving to shop for stamps, just saying...).

I decided to pull out some fun stamps from Simon Says Stamps and make a Valentine's Day card for a friend.  I am so lucky to have such wonderful friends, and what a great way to celebrate my dear friends by sending them a cheery Valentine.





Please head over to Time Out to see more inspiration from our fabulous Guest Designer Milla,  and the Time Out Design Team.  Alex Syberia is our sponsor for this challenge.  Details for the prize are on the Time Out Challenge Blog.


This challenge will run for 2 weeks.  I hope you will take some Time Out of your busy schedule to play along with us.

CASology #399...Renew


 


Hello!   Happy New Year and happy Tuesday. It's time for another challenge at CASology.   This week, our cue word is RENEW.




I feel that RENEW is such a great first cue word and a great way to start the year.  I think of yoga--being present, breathing deeply and renewing a commitment to healthier living.  I have just completed a 3 week on line yoga program, and am feeling renewed.

Now it's your turn.  How does RENEW inspire you?


As always, remember the following CAS guidelines when creating your design:
  1. One main image
  2. Lots of open space, uncluttered
  3. Limited layers & embellishments
  4. Quick & easy to recreate (Note: It may take a while to create a design you like, but once you have that design, making more should be a piece of cake!)

I hope you play along this week.

Please head on over to the CASology blog and gather some inspiration from our design team.
