Just Us Girls Challenge #270 - Word Week

Since Christmas is just around the corner and it's my turn to hostess this week's challenge at Just Us Girls, I thought we could all "Sparkle" this week!  You can use an image that sparkles or use something sparkly on you card.



I would also like to welcome our Guest Designer for the month of December - Lee Ann Barnett!   Come and check out what Lee Ann and the rest of the Design Team at JUGS have created.


It's hard to see all of the sparkle on this.  The background is embossed Core'dinations cardstock that has been sanded to reveal the lighter core, then sprayed with Sheer Sparkle Spray by Imagine Crafts. Stamped the music label stamp with Versamark then heat embossed with silver tinsel embossing powder and die cut.  Heat embossed the white snowflake on the ornament and sponged the edges, popped up on the striped background.  Sizzix flourish cut in half to stick out both ends of the label. Finished off with a punched snowflake and rhinestone.

If you win Chic of the Week in any of our  December challenges, you will be in the running to be our Guest Designer for the month of February .  Good luck!  And please limit your entries to 3.
