Remember to Play

I'm back with a card for our Time Out Challenge #312 Photo Inspiration! It is a picture submitted by our teammate Deepti. Isn't it pretty and calming? Whether you see dawn or dusk, it can be a pretty scene on your card or just using those colors. I wasn't sure how I would make a card at first, then suddenly I remembered that I have this bridge die and got the silhouette idea for my card.










Our wonderful sponsor, is DoodlebugsWA, is 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 are joined by Fran Wing of franmadeinoregon, and winner of Time Out #307 as Guest Designer.


 Here's what I used to make my card:

  • Concord & 9th Seaside Post dies and stencils, Easy Stripes dies
  • Tim Holtz Small Talk sticker
  • Ranger Distress Oxide ink pads
  • Foam tape

After ink blending through the postage stencil to make a sunset/sunrise look on my die cut postage, I die cut the bridge, anchor and sailboat out of black cardstock. I adhered the silhouettes onto the postage stamps and matted each completed stamp with a black square. Next, I die cut the pink and orange strips to be in the background behind the stamps. When the strips were adhered, I popped up the postage stamps on foam tape. All that was left was to add the sentiment, also popped up on foam tape. My card turned out to be CAS with kind of bright colors. 

We hope you will join us for this colorful challenge!
