Time Out Reminder

Happy Friday Eve and that means I am here to remind you that you still have time to play along at TIME OUT Challenges. Our challenge this week is to be inspired by Shakespeare's words from the play Twelfth Night:

'If music be the food of love play on'

Y
You can use any of these words or the whole phrase to inspire you. It is my 9th Wedding Anniversary next week so I went for 'love' and made my hubby this card...I am very happy to say he is a lover of CAS designs (lucky for me!)



A few different challenges came together in my little head to create this card. First off I loved the sketch at the forum Happy Little Stampers. Crafting buddy Kylie runs this forum. If you are not already a member I urge you to sign up as it is full of a great bunch of fellow crafters who are on hand to give advice, chat about crafty and non crafty things.

Second up I thought this week's challenge word at CASology was a very unique and wanted to challenge myself. I knew I wanted to use this Dove stamp form Uniko Studios for my TIME OUT reminder card I had the idea of hanging the hearts under the dove from its mouth....delivering love! Bev fellow teamie at TIME OUT and owner of Unilko had used the dove on one of her cards and added sparkle, it looked so cool I got out my wink of stella to do the same and loved how it looked.

Finally my colour scheme came from the challenge at CAS on Sunday-black/white and one other colour.

I found a couple of other challenges that my card is suitable for:
Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge-Anything Goes-both sentiment stamps are paper smooches.
Eclectic Ellapu.-Pink Team-hearts

Now it is your turn to take TIME OUT and craft with us at TIME OUT Challenges. Some inside info for you.....we have an exciting announcement tomorrow so don't forget to visit us tomorrow or you can see the news here on my blog!!

edited to add-I just saw the reminder of the current challenge at Uniko Studios-special occassions-so I will add my card to this x

  4. Tihi, I actually thought this sentence was picked from one of Madonna's songs. Apparently I can not call myself an expert on Shakespeare!
    I think this will be spot on for your hubby, a CAS card made with love!
