Just Us Girls #638 - Photo Week

 Vicki is our hostess for Photo Week at Just Us Girls and has chosen a really fun photo for our inspiration!


A big THANK YOU to Lucie G for joining us this past month as our Guest Designer!  Come visit JUGS to see what Lucie G and the rest of the talented Design Team have created with this photo as inspiration.


I pulled out my fun Pop Art Pineapples from Concord & 9th.  Stamped in pink, aqua and orange and added green stems.  Die cut the sunglasses from Lawn Fawn Pixie Dust cardstock, which is white and colored with Prismacolor markers.  Stamped the little flowers on the Pixie Dust and enhanced the colors with Prismacolor markers as well.  Stamped and fussy cut the sun to shine down on the pineapples with their blingy sunglasses.  Sentiment stamped in black.  Inside says Sunshine.

Come share your 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.

Just Us Girls #637 - Color Week

 It's Color Week at Just Us Girls and Elizabeth is our hostess and has chosen a very versatile color combo for us to play with.


Check out JUGS to see how our fabulous Guest Designer, LucieG and the rest of the amazing Design Team have used these colors.
I chose to add orange along with the red, blue and yellow.  My first thought when I saw these colors were either crayons or balloons and ended up kind of combining the 2.  Die cut all of the crayons and parts then stamped the sentiment in the open ovals.  Die cut some balloons from glitter cardstock and colored with Touch Twin markers to match the crayons.  The balloon idea didn't pan out, so I layered the balloons, hiding the ends to just have sparkly circles.  Added a few small circles of the white glitter paper because I had to hide a few spots.  Mounted on a blue polka dot background and onto a blue base.

Just Us Girls #636 - Trend Week

 It's time for Trend Week at Just Us Girls and Elizabeth has chosen a really fun trend for us this week!

Come check out JUGS to see what Lucie, our June Guest Designer and the rest of the Design Team have created with a moving element.


I started out with a plain white circle and used a really old Gina K Stitches stamp to stamp the stitching on the baseball with red ink.  Stamped the bam type image (not sure what else to call it) and colored in with a dark blue marker on some blue striped paper and the little poufs (?) were colored with white gel pen and then covered with clear Stickles.  The stripes on the background were showing through, so added some Black Diamond Stickles.  Stamped the bat from Gina K's Sporty Accessories, colored and cut it out.  Used a Wobble on the back of the baseball for some movement.
