It's time for a new challenge and a Happy 6th Birthday celebration at Time Out!!! The theme for Time Out Challenge #157 is BIRTHDAY with an optional twist of die cutting or fussy cutting. Our very wonderful and generous sponsor is Shery Russ of STAMPlorations fame. She has offered a $40.00 gift voucher to the STAMPlorations store for the winner chosen randomly from those who twist. The challenge winner of the DT vote will be offered a future challenge guest designer spot.
Our Guest Designer is Christine. Her designs are spectacular. Please treat yourself to a visit to her blog and give her some love.
I LOVE being a design team member of Time Out Challenges, and I truly LOVE my Time Out Teammates. What a wonderful community of crafters. I started out as a player, and was later invited to join the Design Team. I was so excited. I was introduced as a DT member on 10/08/2016 in THIS post, and my first contribution was with THIS card on 10/13/2016. I am so happy to be a part of the sixth birthday celebration of this wonderful challenge which was born of the creativity and friendship of 2 amazing papercrafters - Sandie Munro and Nonni Niskanen. The challenge has grown so much since its inception, and it is pure joy to be a part of it. It is currently run by Sandie Munro with the assistance of other team members. This mainly card purple card is in Sandie's honor. She is an awesome administrator and a wonderful person. Happy Birthday Time Out!!!!
For my card, I used a couple of alcohol inking techniques on 2 different Yupo panels. Both turned out in a way that complimented the other. The panel I used for the base is subtle. The top one is much more bold and is die cut (twist) with STAMPlorations Bloomtangled 2. I added a white, heat embossed sentiment from Winnie and Walter's The Party cut from deep purple card stock to finish it. Please hop on over to the Time Out Blog to see the wonderful creations that Christine and our Design Team came up with to inspire you. Come play with us!

There's a lovely velvety-ness about your background, Stephanie with those juicy blues and purples ... the floral die cut in that luscious deep berry colour is fanastic over it! Loved your tribute to Sandie and the team ... so beautifully put! Hugs, Anita :)
What a great die. Happy 6th and I'm glad I'm able to join in the celebration.
Now this card is right up my street Stephanie! The colours had me straightaway, but your card design is awesome. I'm swooning with delight! Thanks for playing at AAA Birthday, please come back and join in with future challenges too.
Gorgeous card! I love that you used two different alcohol ink panels. I have not die-cut Yupo paper, but after seeing your card I am going to give it a try. We are so pleased that you joined us the week at Watercooler Wednesday. Karen - DT
What a wonderful combination of colours, Stephanie! I love the way the die-cut pattern compliments the background so beautifully. Thanks so much for sharing with us for our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this week.
Well, this is a bit of a wow! Love that background and the die cut panel over the top is stunningly dramatic. It is so nice to hear how much you enjoy being a part of the Time Out team :)
