It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. Challenge #317 is a theme challenge where we are challenged to be inspired by: WATER You could go in so many different directions with this., We are so excited to see where it takes you!
We are sponsored by our own Design Team Member Jaydee who is generously offering Pinkfresh Studios Berries & Blossoms Stamp, Die & Stencil Bundle as the prize for our Challenge Winner who is chosen by our Design Team. Our winner will also receive an invitation to join us as Guest Designer in a future challenge,
Our Guest Designer is Kathy Asper of myasperations. Kathy is a frequent player at Time Out and she was the winner of Time Challenge #312. You can see her fabulous water themed card on the Time Out Challenge Blog HERE.
For my card, I decided to finally break out some NBUS Honey Bee and other supplies that have been waiting to be used for quite some time. I created a beach and ocean scene and added a little sandpiper birdie and some shells to the surf. I do love to watch sandpipers frantically running back and forth along the shoreline to match the rhythm of the waves. This is commonly called wave-chasing or a wave "dance". You never really see one sandpiper - they move quickly in the sky and surf in large groups and you can almost hear them "talking" as they run into the receding waves. It's a sight I love to see here on the beaches of New Jersey.
Please head on over to the Time Out Challenge Blog where you can see what the Design Team has created for your inspiration. Come play with us! We would LOVE to see you in the gallery! Before you link your project, please read our "How To Play" guidelines on the sidebar of the Time Out Challenge Blog.

Love your beach themed card, Stephanie! The sandpiper looks right at home on it! I, too, love to watch them scurry along the NJ shoreline. Thanks for sharing it with us at the TTTC.
They are fun to watch and I think you've captured that perfectly, Stephanie! What a fabulous beachy card!
Those amazing birds do the same thing on the west coast, Stephanie, and it is mesmerizing to watch them! I love how this die has captured the sandpiper running and you did a great composition with the waves, beach, and shells! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Hugs, Darnell

Stephanie, your beach scene is lovely and refreshing! I love the sandpipers and the gorgeous waves. So glad you joined us at Tic Tac Toe Challenge!
How beautiful Stephanie, I love it! I love watching the birds along the beach! All part of the special relaxing enjoyment of spending time at the beach! :)
I love your little beach scene!
The Sandpiper is such a cute shore bird. Your card is great. Love how it looks. Especially the sand. [Bunny]
Lovely beach scene and fabulous stenciling. Thank you for sharing at Allsorts!
Stephanie, your card reminds me of all the things I love about the beach. On all beach holidays, regardless of where were were, I would not be sitting on the sand, I would be wandering along the seashore looking for shells and spending time watching the birds, including the sandpipers, run backwards and forwards in the wet sand. Thank you so much for bringing back those memories with your fabulous card
hugs

What a fabulous card Stephanie - I can almost smell the salt air and hear the crashing of those waves!
Hugs, Kate!
