"My name is Margreet and I live in the Netherlands.
I have been crafting and cardmaking as long as I can remember. Since 2009 I have my blog Margreet's scrapcards.  I love blogland as it has brought me blogfriends from all over the world.
I am retired since 2016 and you can find me daily in my craftroom. I love playing along with challenges and I have been a member of various Design Teams.
At the moment I am a big fan of Tracy Evans, as you can see at my card. I love making Christmas cards, so I have plenty of them at the end of the year (I also make them for my mother, my daughter and my best friend).
Enjoy this challenge!
Warm thoughts from Margreet"

This is Margreet's wonderful Challenge Card. Check out all the details HERE

Challenge #301

Hello, friends of Time Out. Welcome back! If you are a newcomer to Time Out Challenges, we extend a very warm welcome to you. We're glad you are here.

We have a new challenge that opens today and runs through November 19. This time it is an Inspired by challenge and it is... Inspired by

Your Favorite Holiday to Celebrate!


Our wonderful sponsor, Angie Blom Digital Designs, is generously offering a  $20 store credit as a prize for our Challenge Winner, who will also get an invitation to join us as Guest Designer for a future challenge.

We are joined by Stef Perry of Perry Papercrafts, and winner of Time Out #296 as Guest Designer.
Stef is a wonderfully talented crafter who is a frequent player at Time Out. Her creations are always guaranteed to be delightful! We are so pleased to have her with us as Guest Designer once again. Do yourself a favor and take a stroll through her blog. You are sure to be inspired by her work.

Here is what Stef has to say about her paper crafting journey:

"What started as a part-time hobby making cards back in 2007 has become a full-time obsession! My style has morphed from shabby chic back in the early years to more clean and layered, with a smattering of CAS and also Mixed Media, because sometimes I just love to get inky and messy.  I'm currently on three design teams and am very grateful for how the card/crafting community brings us together.  Thank you for asking me to be a Guest Designer! "

This is Stef's wonderful Challenge Card. Check out all the details HERE.




And now for some inspiration from our design team!
