Just Us Girls #758 - Moodboard Week

 It's time for our Moodboard Challegne at Just Us Girls and Bobby is our hostess this week and has chosen a beautiful collage for your inspiration.

Hop on over to JUGS to see how our Guest Designer, Annette Elias and the rest of our Design Team were inspired by this week's Moodboard.

I was inspired by the snow on the berry branches.  Die cut the branch and added some Nuvo Drops in red.  Ink blended the background with Distress Oxide inks in blue and green.  Die cut an oval out of the center of a piece of white cardstock then ran it through my Big Shot with a textured embossing folder.  Put it all together onto a teal card base.  Stamped the sentiment from Scrapbook.com in Memeto teal ink.

Just Us Girls #757 - Word Week

 It's time for Word Week at Just Us Girls and it's my turn to hostess and I have chosen the word Masculine.  You can make anything for the men/boys in your life.

Check out JUGS to see what our talented Guest Designer, Annette Elias and the rest of the amazing Design Team have created with a masculine style.

I was inspired by this card I found on Splitcoaststampers.  I wanted something unique for my grandson who is playing basketball in college.  The background was embossed then cut to mimic the lines on the basketball and layered onto black.  Die cut the happy and the numbers all from black and put it all together on a rust/orange card base.

Just Us Girls #756 - Die Week

 Welcome back to the start of a new year and a brand-new challenge at Just Us Girls - Die Week!  Vicki is our hostess this week for our newest challenge and it's Anything Goes!

It's the start of a new year, a new challenge and a new month at JUGS which brings to us a new Guest Designer!  Please welcome Annette Elias who will be playing along with us for the month of January.

A little bit of recycling going on here for the lighthouse background, it's from a tissue box.  The die is an unbranded one that I don't remember where it came from.  Die cut from white cardstock and colored the windows, top of the lighthouse and rocks with alcohol ink markers.  Layered onto a piece of turquoise cardstock and onto a white card base.  Sentiment is from Reverse Confetti.

Thank you Jenn for joining us this past month with all of your amazing designs!

I converted my die cut gnome to a snowman by cutting off his hat and adding the Tim Holtz Santa hat and then just had to add some cool shades also from Tim Holtz.  Stenciled the background from Tim Holtz with Shabby Shutters Distress Ink and stamped the HO3 from Ellen Hutson in Hero Arts Red Royal ink.

Just Us Girls #754 - Mood Board Week

 It's time for our Mood Board Week at Just Us Girls and our lovely Carol Mc has chosen a fabulous board filled with lots of inspiration!

Now, hop on over to JUGS to see how our talented Guest Designer, Jenn Borjeson and the rest of our amazing Design Team were inspired by this board.

I was drawn to the little snowman with his blue hat and tan scarf.  Stamped the snowman, then masked him off, blended some Brilliance blue ink onto the background and stenciled some "snowflakes" with white ink which didn't show up quite as nice as I had hoped.  Images colored with alcohol markers.

Just Us Girls #753 - Word Week

 The Word this week at Just Us Girls is JOY.  I am the hostess and thought this would help to finish up or get started with your Christmas cards.

Hop on over to JUGS to see what our fabulous Guest Designer, Jenn Borjeson and the rest of our amazing Design Team have created with JOY.

Used a Tim Holtz snow embossing folder with some blue glitter paper and sanded off some of the raised areas of the snowflakes.  Used Concord & 9th stamps and dies.  Pretty quick and easy.

 Another using the same snowflake embossing folder this time swiping white ink across the raised snowflakes.  Die cut the oval and inked it with a darker blue ink and inlaid it back into the center.  Added the snowflake flourish (unknown/can't remember) and the sentiment.

Just Us Girls #752 - Color Week

 It's time for Color Week at Just Us Girls with Carol Mayne as our lovely hostess and she has chosen a beautiful color combo for us to play with.

Since this is the first challenge of the month, that means we have a new Guest Designer!  Please welcome Jenn Borieson will be joining us for the entire month.  Hop on over to JUGS to see what Jenn and the rest of our amazing Design Team have created with these colors.

I had promised myself I would not buy any new products for Christmas, so I pulled out the old Gina K set and stamped the ornament onto some blue cardstock and heat embossed with gold ep and fussy cut.  Then I added some shimmer with a clear shimmer pen, which turned the blue a little darker.  Die cut the sentiment from white glitter paper and colored with a blue alcohol marker then added some clear ink then added some clear glaze.  Cut the ornament top and "AND" from white glitter cardstock and colored with a gold Sharpie.  Stamped and heat embossed the string to hand the ornament in gold.
