Just Us Girls Wild Card Week

January has a 5th week, so it is Wild Card Time and Nancy is challenging us at Just Us Girls to use a sentiment as the focal point on our cards.  This is a challenge for me because many times I make cards without a sentiment on the front.


Check out how our Guest Designer Judy Woodland and the rest our talented JUGS Design Team have focused on sentiments.


First stamped the hexagon border from Gina K's I Do with Memento Luxe Nautical Blue then the word "love" from Gina K's Lots of Letters in Memento Luxe Love Letter and covered with clear Glaze pen.  Stenciled on the little hearts.  Stamped the U from an old SU set and die cut the pierced banner.  Added faux stitching with a red gel pen and added the hearts to hide some smudges.

Let us see what you can do with your sentiments.  Your could be our next Chic of the Week, which would then put you in the running for our next Guest Designer.  Please limit your entries to 3.

This also fits in with the TIME OUT Challenge of Valentine's with the optional twist of hearts.

Blue Valentine

Playing in a few challenges:

TIME OUT Challenges - Valentines with the optional twist of hearts

The Male Room - Challenge # 2/15 Shades of Blue

Freshly Made Sketches


Using an older Gina K set - Heartily Yours.  The stenciled hearts were hard to photograph, but are sponged with Brilliance blue ink and added some small die cut hearts, too.  Stamped the lava lamp with Memento Nautical Blue then used a blue Wink of Stella marker to color the lava, cut it out and popped it up over the sentiment banner.  Added a strip of blue diagonal striped washi tape and a couple of light blue enamel dots.

Thanks for dropping in!
