Thanks For Celebrating With Us

Today we have a new challenge at Time Out - it is our 8th birthday and we are celebrating big time!

We have a lot of prizes from our fabulous sponsors and we also have 4 of our former former DT members joining us. Please join us in our celebration. Come visit our blog and check out the awesome makes that the design team have created and the wonderful prizes offered by our sponsors. 

For my card, I used Pinkfresh Studio Mini Slimline Essentials Bundle Die Set and the Candles stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. I colored each candle with Distress Oxide inks, and the flames with Dreamweavers Metallic Gold Embossing Paste. My sentiment is from SSS Messages For Everyday.

I am so pleased and proud to be a member of this wonderful Design Team. I was so thrilled the day that Sandie Munro invited me to join the team for this wonderful challenge that she and Nonni created. There have been many changes over the years, but thankfully the team is still thriving and this celebration is so significant. Happy Birthday to us!. Hoping you will join us in our celebration.

SUMMER

The current Fusion Challenge inspiration photo really sparked my creativity. That row of popsicles with the word "summer" spelled out jumped out at me. I have been resisting the slimline craze, but my idea needed lots of horizontal room, so I went with it. My card measures 8 1/2" x 3 1/2". I used Paper Smooches Ice Cream Cone dies and Lawn Fawn Alphabet dies to mimic the popsicle element in the inspiration photo. The cones are dabbed with Antique Linen DO Ink to add some dimension. The sentiment is from Neat and Tangled. I love the way it turned out.
