Just Us Girls #460 - Wild Card Week

We have 5 Saturday's this month, so that means that this week at Just Us Girls is Wild Card Week!  That means that the hostess can choose anything she wants for our challenge and Angie has chosen Stripes.


This is our last week with our September Guest Designer, Julie Beech and I would like to say THANK YOU for joining us this past month and sharing all of your talent with us!  How is Julie and the rest of the Design Team going to incorporate stripes into their creations?  Come on over to the JUGS blog to see!


I just got this flower set from Stamplorations and couldn't wait to use it.  Stamped the flowers on some pale yellow cardstock then added some depth by coloring with Prismacolor markers.  Hand cut the flowers and added some die cut leaves.  Stamped the sentiment from Gina K on a yellow polka dot strip of patterned paper.  Arranged the flowers and leaves how I wanted them,  placed a piece of Press N Seal on top of the arrangement, flipped it over and added glue then placed it onto the card.  This was a tip from Jennifer McGuire and it works like a charm!  The black and white striped background was printed from Mel Stampz.

Come on over to JUGS and show us your stripes!  You could be chosen as our next Chic of the Week, which would then put you in the running for a chance to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.

This is such a bright and sunny card Sue.
Press n Seal looks a very useful addition to the craft stash but it must be a US thing as I've not seen anything like it over here. :)

What a great idea to print your striped background, Sue. I love the yellow flowers with them.

Sue, your flowers, with their subtly stamped petals, are gorgeous and oh, how eye-catching the striped panel! Simply fabulous!

Don't you love that Press n Seal. I had a friend bring some with her when she came to visit as we don't have Costco near me. Love the bright florals with the striped background. Fabulous card Sue.
