Just Us Girls #216 - Photo

 
 
Welcome to this week's Just Us Girls Challenge
 
  
This week Vicki has chosen a wonderful photo challenge picture for us.  Isn't it great....so much inspiration here.
 
 

 
 


Here's my card

 
 
I guess you can see where I got my inspiration?  That red and white striped package just jumped out and smacked me.  Honestly, when I saw the inspiration photo, I could only focus on the red and white stripe because I had just purchased from PTI a great Center Stage Cover Plate die.  I have been dying to use this!  It is so different and just plain fun!  The stamp sets I used are from Gina K. Designs and called Beyond Baskets 2 and Basket Additions.   I was zeroed in on the Santa because in the photo there are a couple of Santa mugs.  I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder called Argyle behind the focal image.  Why argyle, you ask?  If you look closely at the photo you will see a package with argyle wrapping paper in the back.
 
Please come and visit us at Just Us Girls to see what the rest of the team and our guest designer, Nancy Penir,  have come up with this week.  We would love to have you join in on the fun.  Hope to see you there!
 
Just a reminder that Just Us Girls will be continuing the Guest Designer position.  Winning  Chic of the Week puts you in the running for the GD spot.  At the end of the month, after we have all of our Chic's of the weeks for that month, the JUGS girls will decide who the Guest Designer will be. The Chic picked from the November challenges will be joining the team as our Guest Designer for the month of January.
