TIME OUT #147 - Inspired By Words

In our TIME OUT challenge this fortnight, we are asking you to be inspired by the following words:

"Dream Big, Be Grateful, Give Love, Laugh Lots"



Our very generous sponsor for this challenge is Uniko who are generously offering the winner of the challenge an in-stock stamp of their choice :)   



For my card, I decided to focus on the "grateful" part of the words to create a thank you card (can never have too many of those!). I stamped the Uniko Background Wonky Stripes onto some watercolour cardstock in Versafine Onyx ink and then watercoloured using some shimmery Autumn colours. I originally thought that I was going to stay within the lines but eventually decided that I liked the look of continuous colour. I used a Winnie & Walter die to add in the "thanks" (stacked 4 times with cardstock) and stamped a second Altenew greeting across the bottom of the watercoloured image. 






Thanks so much for stopping by!

TIME OUT #146 - Encouraging


We have a great challenge for you this fortnight at TIME OUT; we are challenging you to be encouraging :)






Our sponsor for this challenge is Newton's Nook - they will be giving the winner of the challenge a $25 gift voucher to their store :)



For my card, I masked off the top left corner at an angle and stamped Newton's Nook Flamingo Flock, and coloured the image with Copics.


I did a little bit of stamp surgery on the sentiment stamp so that I could wrap it around the corner of the image. I then adhered the panel to a red card base. 

Our guest designer for this challenge is Shawna from the Grand Stampede - make sure you stop by to check out her wonderful designs :)

Thanks for stopping by!
