Just Us Girls #253 - Trend

This week at Just Us Girls it's Trend Week, and Sue T. has chosen Washi-Tape as our inspiration.  I have only used Washi-Tape one other time, so it was fun revisiting this trend.

I used several strips of Washi-Tape to create the background and then ran it through a Swiss Dot Cuttlebug embossing folder.  The focal image is a set from Gina K. Designs called Million Little Things.  The sentiment is from a set called Flower Builders, also, from Gina K. Designs.

Please visit the Just Us Girls blog and see the beautiful cards the rest of the team and our Guest Designer, Kristie Goulet, have made this week.  Washi-Tape comes in so many wonderful colors and patterns.  I'm anxious to see what you come up with.

If you win Chic of the Week in any of our August challenges, you will be in the running to be chosen as our Guest Designer for the month of October.  Good luck!

Just Us Girls # 250 - Color

This week at Just Us Girls we have a Color Challenge.  Vicki is hosting, and she has chosen turquoise, green & lime as our challenge colors.  Isn't that a fun and interesting combo!

I used a fun set from Gina K. Designs called Bring the Bling.  I love the look of these dotted flowers and swirls all done up in the challenge colors.  I used a Martha Stewart Cherish border punch to make the lime and green border pieces.  The two tags were made with a Paper Smoochies Tag Stitched die in Pure Luxury White and Turquoise Sea card stock.  The white tag was sponged with Turquoise Sea ink from GKD and Pear Tart from Memento.  The sentiment is from the GKD Flower Builders stamp set.  I added some MME enamel dots and a GKD white ribbon.

We are being sponsored this week, in honor of our 250th Challenge, by Dare 2B Artzy! The Chic of the Week will get their choice of a stamp set valued at $14.99 or under. Thanks so much to Dare 2B Artzy!

Please visit the Just Us Girls page to see the beautiful cards the rest of the team and our GD, Rebekka, have made this week using these fun colors!  I hope you will be inspired and want to come and play along.  We would love to see what you create!

If you win Chic of the Week for the month of July, you will be in the running to be chosen as our Guest Designer for the month of September.  Good luck!
