Time Out Challenge #45

Happy Friday Eve,

That must mean it is time for us to take some TIME OUT to craft and join in the latest challenge at Time Out

It is the 'Inspired by Words' challenge and the words are:

Snowflakes are Winter's Butterflies

 You can use any of these words or the whole phrase.

I guess I should have been focusing in 'snowflakes' but I actually made this card a month ago just after I saw the latest challenges at Happy Little Stampers-see below. I was inspired by Loll's card here and Kylie's card here, to create the card I am sharing today. It luckily fitted into this challenge so I have kept it until now to show you!


The butterfly stamp I used for this is from the Butterfly Birthday set from Happy Little Stampers

Our Guest Designer for this challenge is the very talented Ashwini. I have admired her cards for a long time. Her blog Experiments With Card Makings is a real delight to visit and I can assure you that just a little browse here will leave leave you inspired to create!

Our DT have all made fabulous cards inspired by this phrase. Pop over to Time Out and take a look and then kick back and get inky xx

I will enter this card into:
AAA Cards-Anything Goes
Addicted to CAS-dimension and Happy Birthday!
Happy Little Stampers-Anything Goes

    Its beautiful Sandi, yes I was expecting to see a snowflake too, but its nice to see a butterfly in between all the Chrsitmas cards. You have done a brilliant job with the gold embossing and the spray too, its very elegant.

    Love that you went with a butterfly. The splatter behind the butterfly is CAS perfection.
