Just Us Girls #789 = Mood Board Week

 It's Mood Board Week at Just Us Girls with Lisa as our lovely hostess and she has chosen a perfect photo for our inspiration with school starting soon.

Hop on over to JUGS to see what our amazing Guest Designer, Julie Beech and the rest of our talented Design Team have created.


I was inspired by the chalkboard, book and apple.  Using a Gina K image for the stack of books with the apple sitting on top, colored and fussy cut.  Added some clear glaze pen to the apple for some shine.  The background is from Unity stamped in white pigment ink on black.  Stamped and heat embossed the paper clip boarder from the same Gina K set with silver ep onto the red card base.

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.

This is also a fit to the Tic Tac Toe Challenge # 277 using the first column

King of the Club

 Playing along with Art Impressions Sports & Leisure Challenge #410.  Golfing is both Sports & Leisure as far as I'm concerned, even though it can be quite frustrating at times.



AI Golden Oldies are such fun images and I love this old golfer taking a swing!  Colored him with alcohol ink markers then die cut with an oval die, trimming around the end of the club for an out of the box look.  Layered onto another green die cut oval.  Stenciled the background with Distress Oxide in in Lucky Clover.  Stamped the sentiment also from AI, but a different set with a green ink.

What do you think of this dapper golfer?  Want to play a round of golf with him?

 It's Word Week and Just Us Girls and our fabulous hostess, Elizabeth has chosen the word Birthday!  


Hop on over to JUGS to see all of the awesome birthday creations by our Guest Designer, Julie Beech and the rest of our amazing Design Team.
A little fun with this Whipper Snapper flamingo.  Colored with alcohol ink markers and fussy cut.  Using a piece of patterned paper from my stash and die cut a stitched scalloped panel from white and put it together onto a pink card base.  Stamped the sentiment in black directly onto the patterned paper.

Just Us Girls #787 - Die Week

 It's time for our Die Week Challenge at Just Us Girls and Elizabeth is challenging us to use florals!  We all have an overabundance of floral dies, so pull them out and play along with us.


It's the beginning of a new month and that means a new Guest Designer!  Please welcome Julie Beech!  Hop on over to JUGS to see what Julie and the rest of our Design Team have created with florals.
Using an unknown floral die and alcohol ink markers on glossy cardstock.  Yellow gel pen added to the flower centers.  The background is a piece of gauzy tissue that was used to pack something I ordered and adhered to a piece of white cardstock.  Stamped the sentiment in black and Versamark and heat embossed with clear ep.  The card base and sentiment strip are Wild Lilac by Gina K.

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.
