 It's CAS Week at Just Us Girls and Ina is challenged us to use 3 of something on a CAS creation.

Come on over to JUGS to see the fabulous CAS creations by our talented Guest Designer, Kristin Sluhan and the rest of the amazing Design Team.

I was in need of a quick graduation card and here you go.  Stamped the star from a Gina K set 3 times in a row (my MISTI made this easy to do) then colored with alcohol marker in yellow.  Stamped the sentiment from another set and heat embossed in blue.  It needed a little something more, so I used a clear Sakura Stardust gel pen to add some shimmer to white area on the stars and yellow Wink of Stella to make those stars shine.

 It's Photo/Moodboard Week at Just Us Girls and Lisa E. has chosen a fabulous Moodboard full of inspiration.

Hop on over to JUGS to see how this Moodboard inspired our Guest Designer, Kristin Sluhan and the rest of our Design Team.

Using Concord & 9th's Be Mine stamp set.  Stamped the jar of jam once on white then again on a pink striped scrap and paper pieced it onto the jar.  Colored the lid with a pink marker and the jam in the jar with a Glaze Gel Pen.  Stamped the striped piece with Hero Arts Raspberry ink.  Die cut some small hearts and colored with the same Raspberry ink.

I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches.
