Hello Spring



It's time for a new challenge at Time Out Challenge #286 opens today and runs through April 23rd. It is a "Pick 2" challenge. With each of our "Pick 2" challenges, there are 6 different inspiration cues to choose from to create your project. Incorporate 2 of the items in your project and link up to our gallery! You may use more than 2, but you must use at least 2 and you must state in your post which 2 (or more) inspired your project.

We are generously sponsored by Gina K Deigns with a $25.00 store credit as a prize for our challenge winner as chosen by the Design Team

My design incorporates supplies from several companies including Waffle Flower, Neat & Tangled and Spellbinders. I picked floral, stencil, pastel and, spots.  

We are joined by Fran Wing of Franmade In Oregon, and winner of Time Out #281 as Guest Designer. Fran is a wonderful designer and a frequent player at Time Out. Do visit her BLOG and leave her some love. You will surely be inspired by her work!

 Please head on over to the Time Out Challenge Blog where you can see what Fran and the rest of the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Come play with us. I can't wait to see your Pick 2 projects!
