It's time for a new challenge at Time Out! Time Out #278 opens today and runs through December 18th. This time it is a Photo Inspiration Challenge in celebration of December Holidays around the world. You can use all or anything from the photo, or you can create something that depicts any holiday that you celebrate at this time of year. Please tell us about your holiday in your post if it is not obvious in the your project.

Here is an enlargement of the photo so that you can see the detail.
We are generously sponsored by Gina K. Designs with a $25.00 store credit as a prize for our challenge winner as chosen by our Design Team. Our challenge winner will also get an invitation to design with us for a future challenge.
We are joined by Verena Shapiro of simple_stamper on Instagram. Check out her fabulous Challenge Card on the Time Out Challenges Blog.
Mine is a Christmas Card in non traditional colors inspired by the Color Hues colors for December.
I used some NBUS here - the background stencil, word die, and my new Gina K. Fuse Foiling System to foil my Sentiment Strip. I am loving my Fuse!
Please head on over to the Time Out Challenge Blog where you can see what Verena and the rest of the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Come play with us!

Every element flows together perfectly, Stephanie! Love the vellum backed sentiment and your pretty stenciling. Another of your marvelous floral cards!
Gorgeous, inked Christmas card, Steph! I love the added frame and wish I would have thought to do that with my card for this challenge, as it brings your eye in to the greeting. Thanks for playing along with our 100th challenge at Color Hues.

Oh what a beautiful card, Stephanie! You made perfect use of the beautiful color combo with that great stencil! It's been such an honor to be on the Time Out team with you.

I love your use of non-traditional colors, Stephanie, and the silver goes beautifully with the blue and purple.
