Just Us Girls #320 - Color Week

Sharon is our hostess this week at Just Us Girls and her color choice is perfect for me since I need to get some Christmas cards done!


Come on over to JUGS to see what our Guest Designer - Louise Hodge and the rest of the JUGS Design Team have created with this beautiful colors.


Stamped and heat embossed the image with gold ep then colored in with Inktense Watercolor pencils and a waterbrush.  The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with a warm red ep.  I couldn't decide if I should layer green or red beneath the main panel and totally switched gears and added Versamark all around the edge of the layer and heat embossed with gold ep to match the image perfectly.

Now it's your turn to come on over to Just Us Girls and play along with our Color Challenge.  You could be chosen as our next Chic of the Week which would then make you eligible to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.

Such a fabulous card Sue! So glad I read the details or would have thought that was gold paper behind the image! Love that you took the time to heat emboss the edges to frame it off! Super job! Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
