Challenge #15

Have you been taking TIME OUT to get crafty recently?

If not we are here to give you the perfect excuse to take some crafty time to yourself and get inky!

We have our 'theme challenge with a twist' for you and this week we want to see:

STAMPING with the optional twist of APPLES

Basically that means we want to see some kind of stamping on your project even if it is just the sentiment. Plus if you feel like twisting with us add an apple/apples.

If you do twist then you will be in for a chance of winning a stamp set from our wonderful sponsors Avocado Arts (chosen by random.org)

Hello from Avocado Arts!  We are so excited to be sponsoring TIME OUT challenges this year!  Avocado Arts offers high-quality, clear, photopolymer stamps and coordinating digital die cuts.  I fell in love with clear stamps because you can "SEE" what and where you're stamping.  My passion for crafting and creating inspired me to launch my own stamp company in May, 2011. Our stamp sets are clean and graphic with a touch of whimsy, style and flair.  We have new releases each month and our images are interchangeable. Each set has coordinating images and sentiments that are timeless and versatile. Also, as an added benefit, elements from each set are sized so they will work with past and future stamp sets.  Shop anytime on our website www.avocadoarts.com or join our club and receive our newest release at a discounted price. 

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very creative Loll. Her blog Stamping with Loll is full of inspiring projects, check it out here-you will love what you see!

And don't forget that the DT will vote, whether you twist or not, and if you win you could be joining us as Guest Designer very soon!

Now inspiration time:

Surprise! An Extra Challenge at Time Out: "Double the Joy"!

SURPRISE!

You are not mistaken, it's Monday, not Thursday... But you are looking at a TIME OUT Challenge all the same! We have an extra special extra challenge for you to congratulate our extra wonderful DT member Bev! Two weeks ago Bev went to hospital for giving birth to two little beans... And is now a proud mum of twin boys, Josh and Ben! Congratulations to Bev, her husband and the boys! We want to celebrate this special occasion by hosting this extra challenge with the theme

Double the Joy

In other words, use two of something in your creation. We are picking a winner for this challenge with random.org and the winner will get a £20 voucher to Bev's own stamp company 

Uniko Studio

This challenge will run for a fortnight like our challenges always do so we'll be having two challenges that run simultaneously: this one and the Home Sweet Home Photo Inspiration Challenge that started last Thursday. Double the Joy! ;)

Shall we see how our DT members want to congratulate Bev? I hope we'll inspire you to play along!
