TIME OUT #159 - Inspired By Words

We have some wonderful words to inspire you to create at TIME OUT this fortnight:


Our sponsor for this challenge is Newton's Nook who are offering the winner a $25 store credit :) - they have a wonderful selection of stamps of Newton with books but unfortunately, I don't have any in my stash so I opted to use a NBUS Ton stamp set called Haute Books to create my library inspired scene. I wanted to create a softer look on this card so I stamped in grey ink and I coloured with my Prismacolours (I don't do a lot of pencil crayon colouring). I also used a soft colour scheme - they don't show up very well in the photo lighting - and I highlighted with silver-gold with the Sakura sparkle pen and the Wink of Stella glitter pen (again- doesn't show in the photos but I love how it catches the light IRL!)




I hope you find some inspiration from these words and find some TIME OUT to play along with us!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Jill

  1. I really like the softer look and must stamp more in grey myself. And gorgeous soft colouring and I bet the sparkle looks fab x

  3. Love this bookshelf image, Jill. I can imagine what it looks like IRL. Hoping you are well and safe. One Month on Sunday... I think our schools will be closed here for the rest of the year. Strange times. So many stories of sorrow and joy, sadness and creativity. Really quite a remarkable thing to be going through, both the good and bad. Be well...
