First Ever Challenge at TIME OUT Challenges!


Hi friends!
The day has finally come... First challenge at TIME OUT Challenges is now up and running! We start with our Inspired by Words-challenge at this time we get inspired of the phrase 

Dancing in the Rain

To celebrate our first ever challenge we have 2 fab sponsors:

Avocado Arts

Make the Day Special
Check out all the details in our challenge blog.

I couldn't resist on making two cards for our first challenge! My first card with the happy chick jumping in water uses stamps from Avocado Arts -I'm a stamp club member and the Sassy Chic set is the set for March. Such a fun set! There's amazing free postage + free stamps offers going on at  Avocado Arts at the moment, check them out! 

My second card uses the beautiful dancing couple silhouette from STAMPlorations set VIGNETTE: Ever After. I've also stamped some Mr. & Mrs- texts to the background (from Avocado Arts) but they show really poorly in the photo. I used patterned paper strips + small die cut hearts to embellish the card.

Our fab, fab, fab!! DT has created great cards for your inspiration, I hope you'll check them out and then play along here. You'll have one fortnight -I can't wait to see what you create! Take TIME OUT and craft, friends. ;)

I'd like to enter the Dancing Couple-card to Addicted to Stamps and More: Anything Goes and my Chick card to Make it Monday: Anything Goes, Created with Love: Think Spring and Craft Your Passions: Young at Heart.
