It's Color Week at Just Us Girls and Lisa E. is our lovely hostess and she has chosen a beautiful color combo for our inspiration - Aqua and Apricot.
A huge WELCOME to our fabulous Guest Designer for the month of September - Stephanie Lanzalotto! Come check out JUGS to see all of the amazing creations using this color combo by Stephanie and the rest of the talented Design Team.
Started with the striped paper from my stash in the perfect colors. Die cut the happy from the patterned paper and then stamped birthday directly on the stripes. Added the die cut balloons and colored the pieces and placed them back inside the die cut. Put it all together having one of the strings going through the H onto an SU Apricot Appeal card base.
This one is a new, unbranded floral background stamp colored with watercolor pens. Placed the die cut white frame over the flowers and added a die cut happy and stamped birthday strip and again used an Apricot Appeal card base.
Come play along 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.

Great uses of the colors! I do love the 2nd with the white against the color. Really makes it pop 😊
Wow! A twe-fer of these wonderful colors. I love all the stripes in the first. That patterned paper is just perfect. Love the balloons die and the darker shades of the challenge colors. The floral card is absolutely gorgeous and the white frame really brings out the colors beautifully. I am thrilled to be designing with you and your team for September. Thanks for having me!
This is a double dose of wonderful, Sue! The first is a cute way to say happy birthday and I love what you've done with the florals!
The balloon card is such a cheerful card and makes our colors this week so pretty that I think I will be CASEing your colors and balloon idea in the future! The floral card is beautiful and our colors are perfect for your whole design! Your cards will definitely appeal to our followers!!!
That striped paper was indeed perfect, Sue, and so is its match to the card base. The floral card is lovely and another great way to use the colors.
Fun birthday card with the balloons and fabulous in this weeks colours Sue. Your second card is stunning with those florals and big sentiment.
