You Had Me At Martini


It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. Challenge #306 is a Pick 2 - pick at least 2 of the 6 word prompts to inspire your project. You may use more than 2, or even all 6, but you must use at least 2. Also, you must mention which prompts you chose in your post. 

The prompts are: Sparkle, Red, Heart, Pink, Aperture and Twine


Lawn Fawn is our wonderful sponsor generously offering a $25.00 store credit as a prize for our Challenge Winner, who will also get an invitation to join us as Guest Designer for a future challenge.




We welcome Jenn Borjeson of StampinAngelJenn, and winner of Time Out #301 as Guest Designer. You can see Jenn's project and link to it on her blog from the Time Out Challenge Blog.

I wanted to make Valentines for my sons' girlfriends. They are lovely women who are well matched with both of the boys, and whose company we really enjoy. They both love a good martini - one favors an Espresso Martini, and the other a Dirty Martini. The one above is my challenge card. I picked sparkle, red, pink and heart. The sparkle did not photograph well at all, but the top layer of the drink is heavily colored with Wink Of Stella. The dirty Martini below features red, pink and heart.


Please head on over to the Time Out Challenge Blog where you can see what Jenn and the Design Team have created for your inspiration. Come play with us! We would be so happy to see your project in our gallery. Please be sure to mention which of the 6 prompts you used in your project in your post. I can't wait to see what you create!
