Time Out #263

Did you know that there was an Alphabet Magnet Day?  Well there is and it's today.  That is also the theme for the Time Out challenge.


This one started out a little difficult for me.  Since our sponsor is Altenew and I have so many of their stamps I wanted to use one.  But how do I work the occasion into it?  I think I came up with a decent idea.


I stamped flowers from Altenew's Hello Sunshine, colored them with artist markers and cut them into circles to represent refrigerator magnets.  Then I cut letters from MFT, stacked them three high and covered them with Pico Embellishment to give them a shine.  They're not as large as the genuine Alphabet magnets but those wouldn't fit anyway.  You can obviously see the major sentiment but can you find two other words using the letters?   The flowers were popped up and everything placed on my stainless steel refrigerator door. 😉

Altenew is giving our winner a $15 store credit.  There is plenty of wonderful inspiration from the Design Team on the blog.  Take a look and make a card for our gallery for your chance to win.

Love your stainless steel refrigerator Bobby, and your flower magnets are beautiful (great idea)! I found a few other (4-letter) words - gull, legs, sell, slug and soul! These letters are great fun aren't they! Hugs, Kate!

Kate said...

... and "GLOVES"! I'm assuming your two sentiment words are "HELLO" and "LOVE"!

I was trying to think of a way to put a fridge on my card. Your idea was brilliant! Great take on the challenge, Bobby!

Oh, this is going to be fun: hush, gloves, shove, shoves, shovel, hull, glue, love, loves, luge, lugs; and Tom said evolve, and guess/guesses, gouge/gouges - but we're not sure we can use letters more than once per word!
So fun, Bobby!

I'm with Michele, LOTS of good words here! Love your refrigerator idea, and the textured mirror cs did the job perfectly

Bonnie said...

What fun, Bobby! This is so clever and sparked a fun game for all of us to see how many words we could make from these letters.

Greta said...

Now aren't you clever with the stainless steel fridge and your floral magnets! Great job with the brightly colored letters--just like the magnetic ones!
