Too Glam To Give A Damn

It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. Challenge #237 challenges us to be FASHIONABLE. Think clothing, design, color trends - even food fashion. Let your imagination run free!

We are generously sponsored by AALL & Create.

Challenge Winner will receive a $20.00 store credit and an invitation to Guest Design with the Time Out Design Team for a future challenge.

We welcome Arlene Rose of Sunday Stamper Papercrafts and Winner of Time Out #234 as our Guest Designer for this challenge. Arlene is a very talented crafter with a style that is often CAS. She has awesome coloring skills. Please visit her blog for some great inspiration. She would welcome your comments on her creations!

I stepped waaaaaay out of my comfort zone on this one when I decided to go with a mixed media creation to showcase AALL & Create's Fashionable Miss Dee. She just cracks me up and was the perfect image for our challenge. I used powdered inks, stencils, Lunar Paste and white ink to create my gel print background. I die cut and foam mounted the background on 110lb cardstock. I stamped, colored and popped up Miss Dee and the sentiment, and my card was complete.

I rarely use stickers in my card making, but this New ton was the inspiration for the design of my card. As I thought about how to use it, I got the idea to mimic the background of the sticker sheet. I inked the SSS Falling Hearts stencil and some colored card stock to get that effect. To give the background some texture, I stamped the card base with VersaMark and heat embossed it using the Hero Arts Book Stacks Background Stamp and my card was complete.
