Time Out #41...A Laugh is a Smile that Bursts



Hello and welcome to a new challenge at Time Out.  This week, our challenge is Inspired by Words.  We have this quote by American poet William Cullen Bryant:

"Autumn...the year's last, lovliest smile."

My idea was to use a sentiment related to 'smile' and fall colors.  I pulled out PTI Funky Florals, and stamped in Summer Sunrise, Scarlet Jewel, Simply Chartreuse, Ripe Avocado, Canyon Clay and Terracotta Tile.  I added a little bit of burlap texture to my front panel before popping it up on the card base.



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 and our guest designer, Glenda of My Paper Cat.


Edited to add:  Linking up to Freshly Made Sketches #206.  (Thanks, Lisa)

  1. I love that embossing folder texture. I don't think I have seen that before. And love the over stamping of those flowers, also new ones to me but the graphic look of them really appeals to me x
