It's time for a new challenge at Time Out! For the next fortnight we challenge you to be Inspired by these words: "If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales." ~ Albert Einstein.

We are generously sponsored by AALL & Create with a $20 Store Credit for the winner, and an offer to Guest Design with The Time Out Design Team for a future challenge.

We welcome Kim Heggins of Cupcakes, Cards and Kim as our Guest Designer. Kim is a former member of the Time Out Design Team, and we are thrilled to have her designing with us for this challenge.

I went with our sponsor's Peter Pan Stamp Set.  My idea was to fashion a hiding place for the lost boys using  a domed die cut and a woodgrain stamp.

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.

Time for a new challenge at Time Out! Challenge #230 starts today and runs through February 1st. It's an Inspired By Words Challenge where the words are: "The single most important thing I've ever done with my life is to fall in love with you." ~ Beth Pearson - This is Us. That was a tv show so near and dear to my heart. 

We welcome Julia Aston of Create With Me and winner of Time Out Challenge #227 as our Guest Designer.

I am so excited to share that we have a new sponsor - AALL & Create. From our Sponsor's Eshop: "Discover AALL & Create’s range of exclusive products, as featured on Create and Craft TV! Our product range is developed by an international team of artists and are designed to be used in many different kinds of artwork and project, including mixed media, scrapbooking, card-making and more. so get them while you can and spread the word!"

I am in love with AALL & Create's products, and have used two in my card. If you are familiar with my work, you will know that this is pretty far out of my comfort zone. I LOVE the way the stamps and stencil I chose that were so generously gifted by our sponsor, made me think outside the box.  My card is a big twist on our words! The series of "Dee" stamps and sentiments is hilarious. Check the spaghetti strap on Dee's dress! I made this with my Valentine in mind, and I giggled a few times as I was making it.
