Challenge #198 - Breast Cancer Awareness

 Hello friends of Time Out!

The next fortnight we are focusing on Breast Cancer Awareness.

Our challenge is for you to make a friendship and/or encouragement card.
The optional twist is to use Pink in your card. 

We take breast cancer awareness very seriously. Early detection of Breast Cancer is the key and it is advised to do a self exam-check every month. You can check out this link for more info on self exams or just more information about Breast Cancer in general - here. 

Please do pass this information to friends and go do that self exam!

This challenge is sponsored by the incredible and very generous CAS-ual Fridays Stamps! If you use our twist of pink you could win a $25 voucher to their amazing store. Our design team will also vote for another winner who gets to join us as guest designer in a future challenge. 

Our Guest Designer is Natasa of NatsPaperWorld and winner of Time Out Challenge #195. We are delighted to have Natasa designing with us. Treat yourself to a stroll through her blog. You will be so inspired. Her coloring skills are amazing!

Here are a few words from Natasa about her love of paper crafting:

"Hello! I'm Natasa and I'm from Slovenia. I've always been amazed by various handmade items and people's creativity and when I bought my first couple of stamps at the local craft shop I was immediately hooked on paper crafting. It's been about 6-7 years now and over the years the passion even grew. Since then I have developed new skills and I always like to try new techniques. Paper crafting gives me so much. It's a time for myself, when I can relax, let my imagination go wild and create cards for my friends. I enjoy the process of turning ordinary paper into something heartfelt or giving life to an image by coloring it. I especially love to color with alcohol markers and lately I'm also practicing coloring with watercolors and colored pencils. "

Here is Natasa's card:
