Challenge 237 - Fashionable

Hello friends of Time Out!

It's time for a new fun challenge! We challenge you to be Fashionable for the next fortnight -what ever that means to you. Be creative! In addition to clothes and other more obvious fashion related things you could also think of the latest colors or the latest crafting trends too for example. 

We are proud and happy to have AALL&Create back as our sponsor in this challenge! Many of our DT members are playing with their stamps and if you have some, we'd love to see you use them too! Our winner receives a $20 gift voucher to their store.  

We welcome Arlene Rose of Sunday Stamper Papercrafts and Winner of Time Out #234 as our Guest Designer for this challenge. Arlene is a very talented crafter with a style that is often CAS. She has awesome coloring skills. Please visit her blog for some great inspiration. She would welcome your comments on her creations!

The following is what Arlene has to say about her love of stamping:

"I have been stamping for about fifty years. Sending cards to people is my mission. To make people smile with my art is the most I can ask for of this life."

And HERE is Arlene's wonderful creation:

Challenge 236 - World Book Day

Hello friends of Time Out.

It's time for a new challenge at Time Out, and this time it is a theme challenge in celebration of World Book Day. 

The enjoyment of reading books is celebrated on World Book Day on April 23 in over 100 countries, and  on the first Thursday in March in the UK. It’s a day to celebrate the privilege of being able to read, so head to the library or curl up on the couch and just be a bookworm!

The Challenge runs from April 13th to April 26th.    

We are generously sponsored by Newton's Nook Designs. Challenge winner will receive a $25.00 store credit and an invitation to Guest Design with us at Time Out for a future challenge.

We welcome the very talented Trina Pham of Phamtastic Design as our Guest Designer. Trina's clean design and coloring skills are truly inspiring. We encourage you to take a stroll through Trina's BLOG and leave her some love.

We asked Trina to tell us a bit about herself and her crafting journey, and this is what she had to say:

"Hello, my name is Trina Pham and I live in Canada.  It was a happy accident when I discovered paper crafting, in particular card making.  I would describe my style as “clean”, anywhere from clean and simple (CAS) to clean and layered.  But in the end, I like to go wherever my creativity takes me.  I am thrilled to be here and would like to thank the Time Out challenge team for having me."

...and HERE is Trina's Phamtastic card:
