Getting Cozy - Time Out Challenges Guest Designer

This week I'm Guest Designer with Time Out Challenges and the theme is


This challenge is being sponsored by Newton's Nook with a $25.00 store credit as the prize for the challenge winner as chosen by the Design Team. Winner also gets an invitation to Guest Design for a future challenge.

I don't know about you but I don't need it to be cold out to be happy to sit down with a chai latte and a good book - I'll quite happily admit to those addictions, lol. Having said that, I did use autumn tones for my card because one, it's my favourite season and two, they're just cozier - and of course, Melbourne weather does often forget it's spring and tosses in a few autumnal/wintery days too!


Materials used:
  • stamps - Exquisite (Tim Holtz), Itty Bitty Greetings (Stampin' Up)
  • papers and die cuts from Mintay Golden Days collection
  • dies - Papercut Cafe (Tim Holtz), book die (stash)
  • distress oxide inks - antique linen, brushed corduroy
  • other - blending brushes, Dimensionals, Big Shot, MISTI, Copic markers C0,C2

There's more card samples on the Time Out Challenges website and if you're inspired to create, they'd love you to share.

Thanks for calling in.

Cheers
Kerry

What a darling card Kerry, love the beautiful knitted background you chose for the book and the hot steaming cup of tea ( I suppose). Also the addition of the dainty flowers add a charm on the card. Fantastic retirement card and a great inspiration for the players.Thank you for being our guest. Hugs ~ Ishani

What a wonderfully cozy card, Kerry! That knit background is perfect! I struggle to get time to read because I enjoy spending most of my days off in my craft room!!
