Just Us Girls Word Week #313

It's my turn to be your hostess at Just Us Girls for our Word Week Challenge.  Sympathy cards can be very difficult to make, yet we always seem to need them, so my challenge word for you is Sympathy.


I would like to welcome our Guest Designer for the month of October - Julie Gearinger.   Come over to Just Us Girls to get some inspiration from Julie and the rest of the Design Team.


I used an old Stampin Up 2 step flower set for this.  Stamped with Hero Arts inks and then colored the backside with a Prismacolor Colorless Blender that I learned from Jennifer McGuire's blog - No Water Watercoloring.  She called it waterless watercolor.  I think I should have blended the flower on the right a little more.

Come join us at Just Us Girls and you could be chosen as our next Chic of the Week, which would put you in the running to become our next Guest Designer for the month of December!  Please limit your entries to 3.
