Time Out #187...Reminder...Let's Go

 

There is still time to play along with the current challenge at Time Out.  We challenge you to make a card inspired by MOVE.   I used this fun MFT die called Critter Caravan.  I filled the caravan with a trio of animal friends, out for an excursion on a sunny day.  Road trip, anyone?

I am curious to see how you are inspired to move. 

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


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

Thanks for Visiting

My Crafty Weekend

 

Hello and happy Sunday.  It's a big day of card posts for me.  Not only am I posting the 4 creations I made this weekend, but I had a go live early this morning, where I posted 8 cards I made with the card kit Tracey sent me when I was her guest at The 12 Kits of Occasions.

First up for today is this birthday card.  I started by using the PTI balloon stencil to stencil a colorful background of balloons.  Next, I die cut the sentiment out of black cardstock, and then adhered a piece of vellum to the back of the die cut.  I liked that you can see the balloons behind the die cut, but the vellum mutes the colors a bit, allowing the die cut to shine.

I am entering this card at Ink to Paper Birthday Card challenge, AAA Birthday #21: Stenciled Background, and Seize the Birthday #206: Vellum.

Next up are 2 cards that both follow the colors from MFT Color Challenge #158 and the top row of the tic tac toe challenge at The Paper Players #526 (die cut, animal, scene).  I used the MFT Critter Caravan die and sent a zebra and panda off to a birthday party.

Those zebras still wanted to party, so I made an additional card inspired by the sketch at MFT Sketch Challenge #526.  I thought a large stenciled balloon would make a festive stand in for the oval in the sketch.  Flowers are the gift of choice at this birthday party.

Last up is a card for the (dreaded) one layer challenge at AAA Cards #182.  I taped off a vertical strip and blended 3 different colors of Catherine Pooler inks.  Then I stamped a silhouette image and sentiment from Picket Fence Dear Best Friend.
