Just us Girls #439 - Word Week

It's Word Week at Just Us Girls a I have chosen the word Shadow.  You can make a shadow of an image or words, it could be stamped or drawn shadows or create a shadow by layering die cuts.  Use your imagination and see where it takes you!


I would like to welcome our May Guest Designer, Patti KehlCheck out the JUGS Blog to see how Patti and the rest of the Design Team have interpreted the word Shadow.


I went with stamped shadows.  The balloons were stamped with gray ink with the die cut balloons adhered directly to the white layer, slightly offset for a dimensional look.  The sentiment was stamped first with gray ink then a little and to the right with black ink, again for a dimensional look.  The sentiment was stamped using my MISTI to get the right placement.. I also added some clear Wink of Stella to the balloons.

How does the word Shadow inspire you?  Come share you creations with us and you could be chosen as our next Chic of the Week, which would then make you eligible at a chance to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.

Sue, your shadow stamping is spot-on fantastic! I was certain your Happy was a layered die cut! And your trio of balloons: pure fun! Thank you for selecting such a cool technique; one that saw me reaching for stamps I haven't used in quite a while and trying something different with them!
