I was recently asked to be the guest designer for the TImeOut Challenge and gladly accepted. This go around is "Inspired by Words" and the specific words are a quote by Lilly Pulizer - "It's Always Summer Somewhere". One summer, while driving across northern North Dakota, the fields of sunflowers were as far as the eye could see - a truly glorious sight. The memory of that was my summer inspiration for my card.
There is a $25.00 gift certificate and an opportunity to be a guest designer awaiting the winner. You have from August 1 - August 14 to enter. Hope to see your card in the gallery!
