Time Out Challenges #59

Are you ready to take some TIME OUT and get crafty with us?

We hope so as we have our 'Theme with a twist challenge' and this time it is:

'Masculine with optional twist of mixed media'

We are defining 'mixed media' as:

Stamps and ink plus 2 other elements that add texture and/or dimension.

This definition means you can make 'Clean and Simple' cards with mixed media. For example, just add some dry embossing for texture, a die cut for dimension plus and a stamped sentiment. But you don't have to do any of this. Any masculine card is welcome. If you do twist we have an extra randomly drawn from a fabulous sponsors STAMPlorations-an ARTploration stencil


The winner of the challenge, chosen by out Design Team will get a $10 STAMPloration gift voucher.

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very talented Patti.


 Patti's cards are outstanding and her blog, Stationery Styles, is a wonder to visit. Pop over there and we guarantee you will come away inspired.

Lets see what Patti and the DT have created to get you playing with us:

Challenge #58 Home Sweet Home Photo Inspiration


Hi friends of TIME OUT!

We have a new challenge for you, a photo inspiration! Our Home Sweet Home photo inspirations are always somehow related to interior design and this time we are inspired of this fabulous, bohemian door with wonderful colours and shapes. You could also be inspired of the brick wall for example. Many options! 

Our guest designer this time is Karren J from Karren J Stamping Stuff. Karren has such a fun CAS style and she is a wizard with Copics, do visit her blog if you haven't already!

Let's have a look how our Karren J and our regular DT members have interpreted the photo.
