Time Out: Sending Hugs



We're back with another challenge at Time Out.  We have a fun word inspiration challenge for you!  Don't you just love this quote below?

'A woman is like a tea bag - you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water' by Eleanor Roosevelt

I went with the tea theme but went with comfort.  Nothing like a good cup of tea to comfort your soul.  FYI:  this challenge is only running for a week...so hurry up and play along!

Be sure to pop on over to the Time Out Blog to check out how our design team was inspired. Also...we sure to check out Elaine (our guest designer) blog too!

superb design, you know I love the touch of dsp at the edge or bottom and IRL this has centre stage on the mantle piece!

This is great Lynn, I want to try this layout with some patterned paper on the bottom of the card -I always use it on the left side of the card if I want to make it CAS but this is a great option! Thanks for inspiration! xxx

Well, you managed to convey strength and tea. So, yay for you. This is a wonderful card. Love how you tucked those additional sentiment words nestled into the tails from yor 'hugs'.

Love those tea images and also how the "hugs" seems to hug the rest of the sentiment.

Such a cool design, Lynn, love how the striped paper across the bottom pulls everything together!

I am a real tea-person (no coffee) so your card makes me want to put the cattle on...
Great stamps and love the stripes you added on the bottum! Enjoy the weekend!

Nothing can beat a good cup of tea, Lynn ... and this is definitely a wonderful one! Love that tiny pop of pink in the tea bag tail ... so sweet! Hugs, Anita :)

Great design Lynn - I love you arranged that sentiment (it is like a big hug all by itself) - and combined with a cozy cuppa - perfect! Jill
