Just Us Girls #529 - Photo Week

It's time for Word Week over at Just Us Girls and Lisa has chosen a beautiful photo for our inspiration!  All of those tulips are a great reminder of the beauty of our earth and that we will conquer this invisible enemy that we are all facing.


I would like to thank Vicky Hayes for being our fabulous Guest Designer this past month!  Now, come check out JUGS to see how Vicky and the rest of the amazing Design Team were inspired by this photo.


I was inspired by all of those beautiful red and yellow tulips!  I used a very old SU 2 step floral set for this.  I stamped the first layer in Memento Dandelion and the second layer in Lady Bug inks.  The red looked a little orangey, so added some Touch Twin marker in Crimson Red for a little more depth.  I chose the Faith sentiment from Gina K due to the circumstances of the COVID-19  to remind me that we all have to keep the faith.

Come show us your creations and tell us how you were inspired by the photo 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.

Such a lovely brightly coloured card Sue. Gorgeous 'tulips'. I sure got the flower wrong this week. Love the simple sentiment.

Lovely card Sue, but I really think you chose a perfect sentiment for this time in our lives. Stay safe.

I love two toned tulips, Sue, and yours are lovely. How great of you to check on your aunt. I'm sure she loves to hear from you.
