Time Out #294

Hello and welcome

We have a new challenge at Time Out that opens today and runs through August 13. This time it is a Pick Two challenge!  The idea of this challenge is very simple: we give you 6 word prompts and you pick at least 2 for your project!  To be clear, you can pick more than 2 if you like – you can include all 6 if you really want to challenge yourself but just make sure to pick at least 2!

The words for Challenge #294 are:

Torn, Transport, Star, Stripes, Rainbow, Book

Some words may have a double meaning; for example ‘Book‘ could mean a reading theme or a specific book title or theme and ‘Rainbow’ may refer to a rainbow or the colours of the rainbow!  Please mention which words you have chosen and how they inspired you – especially if it isn’t obvious!

Newton’s Nook is our wonderful sponsor,generously offering a $25.00 Newton’s Nook Store Credit as a prize for our Challenge Winner.  Our winner will also be invited to join us as Guest Designer for a future challenge.

We are joined by Bonnie Klass of Stamping With Klass, and winner of Time Out #289 as Guest Designer. Bonnie is an incredibly talented crafter, and we are so pleased to have her with us. Please treat yourself to a stroll through her blog for a delightful experience. You are sure to be inspired.

The background uses NN – Gingham Stencil and Distress Ink. The small
