Just Us Girls #806 - Moodboard

 It's time for Moodboard Week at Just Us Girls with Vicki as our fabulous hostess and she has chosen a moodboard filled with inspiration to inspire us!

Come on over to JUGS to see how this Moodboard has inspired our Guest Designer, Laurel Seabrook and the rest of our talented Design Team.

I was inspired by the arches and the window in the brick.  Pulled out the brick background from an earlier experiment and die cut the arched window.  Die cut the window again from white, backed the opening with a black and white "curtain" and added a scalloped border to the bottom of the shade.  Stamped the cat, colored with alcohol markers and some cream around the cat and adhered it behind the window so he was peeking outside.  Added some berry branches and stamped the Concord and 9th sentiment in black on a piece of patterned paper.

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.

Just Us Girls #805 - Word Week

 It's time for our Word Week Challenge at Just Us Girls with Elizabeth as our amazing hostess and she is challenging us all with the word "Encouragement".  That is something that everyone needs as some point in their lives.

Hop on over to JUGS to see what our lovely Guest Designer, Laurel Seabrook and the rest of our amazing Design Team have created to give encouragement to someone.

Using an old Gina K set for my sister who is going through yet another surgery on her leg and has a long road of recovery ahead of her.  Colored the frog and the bamboo stalk he is hanging onto with alcohol markers, fussy cut and layered onto a piece of patterned paper.  Die cut with an oval and layered onto a darker green oval.  Pulling a piece of olive colored, textured cardstock out of my huge bin, used that as a base layer and adhered to a white card base.  Stamped the sentiment in a dark olive ink and die cut with a Tim Holtz die from the tags set.

Now it's your turn to come play along with us! By joining in, 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.

Just Us Girls #804 - Die Week

 Welcome back to Just Us Girls with the start of a new year!  It's time for our Die Week Challenge with Elizabeth as our lovely hostess and she is challenging us to create with coverplates!

Please welcome our fabulous Guest Designer for the month of January - Laurel Seabrook!  Now, hop on over to JUGS to see what Laurel and the rest of our amazing Design Team have created using coverplates.

Using a Spellbinders heart coverplate die cut from ivory cardstock.  Backed it with some hot pink glitter paper.  Die cut a large heart from the same glitter paper and added the die cut sentiment, which actually matches better in real life.
