Challenge #196 - Brave

 Hello Crafters....it's time for another new challenge at Time Out!


We are back with a new challenge and one that is just a bit different - Brave
There are so many ways you can be brave, from starting a new job, going to a new school, moving to a new neighborhood, so many possibilities and we can't wait to see what inspires you!

Our wonderful sponsor for this challenge is Funky Fossil Designs

winner gets £15 gv British Sterling
 



Our guest designer for this challenge is Rahmat Gouse of Cards And Cooking Corner and winner of Time Out Challenge #193. She is a very talented card artist, and her floral watercoloring is swoon-worthy! Check out her blog, and you will see what I mean.

Here are a few words from Rahmat about her background and her crafting:

"I am originally from India. I have been globe trotting for almost a decade and half, and I live in Macau. I am wife to a hotelier, mother to 2 university kids. A teacher by profession, currently not teaching. I do substitute and volunteer teaching from time to time.

I started serious card making only in 2014, and also started my current blog back then. I love CAS mostly, but I love trying out different techniques. I love playing with stamps, and I always look for creative out of box ways to use, and showcase the stamps. For past year and half I have been hooked to coloring mostly flowers and bubbles. I also enjoy illustrating flowers nowadays. 

Other than card making, I love cooking, reading, traveling and photography."

This is Rahmat's wonderful make for our challenge:


 Here is some inspiration from our design team:
