Hope Is Never Lost

 There 's a new challenge at Time Out starting today. It's a Pick 2 challenge where you must pick at least 2 of the cues from the list and incorporate them into your project. You may pick more than 2 but you must pick at least 2. Our cues this time are Pastel, Earth, Rain, Hope, Tree & Bloom.

We are generously sponsored by STAMPlorations with an offer of a $25 store credit as a prize for our Challenge Winner. In addition, the winner will receive an invitation to join us as a Guest Designer for a future challenge.

We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Shery Russ back as our wonderful sponsor. After facing a life-changing health ordeal, Shery has reopened her business following nearly four years away. Her strength and creativity continue to inspire us all.

We encourage you to read Shery’s story and explore the STAMPlorations store, where you’ll find a fantastic range of both classic and new products. Monthly challenges started in January and right now, Shery is running a Spring Cleaning Sale—definitely worth checking out for some amazing deals!

Her new lines of paper goods are especially impressive, and you can see some of them and other STAMPloration products featured in our Design Team projects below.

We are joined by Karen Walker of Random Reflections, and winner of Time Out #306 as Guest Designer. Karen is such a talented designer with a great eye for design and color. Treat your self to a stroll through her BLOG. You are sure to be very inspired!

For my card I used a combination of goergeous collage and ATC papers provided by STAMPlorations papers to create this wonderful collage design. It includes Simon Says Stamp Artful Palette Stencils and dies and Tim Holtz Noteworthy Stamps. 

Please head on over to the the Time Out Challenge Blog and join us in the gallery. Pick at least 2 of our queues for your project! I can't wait to see where your imagination takes you!
