Life Is Magical

It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. This time, we challenge you to be MAGICAL. 

We are sponsored by Picket Fence Studios. They are providing a $25.00 store credit to our challenge winner who will also be invited to join the Time Out Design Team as Guest Designer for a future challenge. We are so pleased to have Carol McFarland of Saw it. Had to Make It for her second appearance this month as our Guest Designer. Carol is a wonderful card maker an a frequent player at Time Out. Check out her wonderful make for the challenge HERE.

There's nothing like a unicorn to conjur up some mgic, so I went to my go-to unicorn stamp set for my card. Some stamping, Copic coloring, stenciling and die cutting and my card was complete.

Please head over to the Time Out Challenge Blog to see what Carol and the Design Team have created to inspire you. I can't wait to see your project in the gallery.

Remember, we allow links to a total of 5 challenges including ours. We also need you to tell us in your post, how you were inspired by the quote. Check out the rules in "how to play" on the sidebar of the challenge blog. See you in the gallery!

Hi

Time Out Challenge #144 is up and running. This time it's a Home Sweet Home Challenge: a photo inspiration challenge with a homey twist!

Our wonderful sponsor is Poppy Stamps. Challenge winner will receive a gift voucher from Poppy Stamps. 

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the incredibly talented Desert Diva Hannelie. I highly encourage you to treat yourself to a stroll through her blog. Her creations are awesome. Don't miss this opportunity to be inspired, and please leave her some love.

Here is a larger image of the photograph. If you look very carefully, there are many elements that you may not see upon first look!

When I spotted the pillow on the couch that is third from the left, I immediately thought of The Gossip Column: Geometric Generation Digital Elements - a freebie I downloaded from Winnie and Walter. I used that for the background of my card. I wanted to pick up something that was not so obvious in the photo. If you look on the shelf behind the couch, there is a sculpture of a pink hand and next to it, a little glass vase with a piece of greenery in it. When I saw that, I knew just what I would do. The wonky circle is from MFT. The hand is from Hands by Julie Ebersole, Essentials by Ellen Designer Dies and the greenery from Flora and Fauna Terrarium Cluster Dies.
