Just Us Girls #357 - Color Week

This time at Just Us Girls it's Color Week.  Lisa is our hostess and she has chosen Aqua, Kraft and White as our inspiration.  As usual with color challenges, you are to use all three of the chosen colors as well as any neutrals that you need.  Neutrals are white, ivory, Kraft, black, brown or gray.

I love using this Quilt Square Cover Up die from MFT.  When you use multiple colors, you end up with enough pieces to make more than one card.  The other cards are posted below.  I, also, used the Circle Scribbles dies from PTI and a pretty button from GKD.

Just Us Girls #273 - Photo Week

This week at Just Us Girls it's Photo Week.  Nancy is our hostess and she has chosen a fun photo for our inspiration.  Here's how I was inspired.

When I saw this picture with all of the fabulous circles, all I could think about doing was the Bokeh Effect technique.  I love how the white circles soften the base colors.  To create the background I used Hero Arts Soft Granite & Fresh Peach. The white circles were made by using Brilliance Moonlight White.  The thanks script is from Mama Elephant.  I cut four of them and glued them together to add some interest.  The sequins are from Pretty Pink Posh and Verve.  Thanks so much for coming by to look!
