Just Us Girls #710

 It's time for our Moodboard Week at Just Us Girls and Lisa has chosen a very cozy Moodboard for our inspiration.

Come check out JUGS to see how our very talented Guest Designer, Stef Perry and the rest of our amazing Design Team were inspired by this Moodboard.

I was inspired by the colors and some of the texture and came up with this masculine Valentine.
Embossed the background using kraft cardstock then swiped some Weathered Wood Distress ink across the raised areas.  Used the same kraft for the larger heart and the insert on the sentiment.  The striped paper was in my scrap pile and the smaller striped heart is the inside of an envelope adhered to some cardstock for some stability.  Colored the outline of the sentiment with a dark gray marker.  Did direct to paper on a white card base with the Weathered Wood ink to coordinate with the rest of the card.

Come play along with us and you could be chosen as our next Winner of the Week, which would then make you eligible at a chance to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3.
