New Challenge at Time Out!


Hi friends!

I'm here with a quick post to tell you about our new challenge at Time Out! For the next fortnight our theme is Alphabet Magnet Day.

Although traditionally, we might think of magnetic letters as a children’s toy, the first known magnetic letters were actually created for the space industry. Click HERE for a bit of history behind the magnetic letters that have been decorating the faces of refrigerators for 50 years.

For this challenge you can for example use letter dies, large word dies, patterned paper with writing as focal point, embossing folders with letters or large words... many possibilities! 


For my card I used supplies form our sponsor Altenew: JOY-die and coordinating stencils and Festive Greenery embossing folder. The embossing folder has coordinating stencils too, but to make my card front mimic a fridge door more, I left it white lol! 

I hope to see you playing along. In addition to the Altenew prize, our winner also gets called to guest design in the future. This time our guest is the very talented Carol from Saw it. Had to Make it.  She made two amazing cards for our inspiration! Don't miss Carol's card, more DT inspiration and all the challenge details, click HERE.

New Challenge at Inkspirational!



Hi friends!

I'm here with my DT card for Inkspirational! Our challenge for the next fortnight is "Seasonal". That means we want you to either choose an occasion related to a Season (like winter/Christmas) or use images specifically related to some season. 

I have chosen Summer as my season and sunflowers as my specific image. Sunflowers are wonderful in late summer... many Finns grow them all the way from seeds and yet they become huge and bloom amazing come July/August! 

. I colored in a Waffle Flower classic image, Sunflower Love, with Copics and Altenew pencils. I've die cut it with matching dies and created a card layout with patterned paper and some scraps from my scraps box. The white panel is heat embossed with a background stamp by the Ton with white pearl powder. I heat embossed a white sentiment (by Altenew) to the grey circle. I always get so happy when I'm able to use elements from my scraps box lol!
