Just Us Girls #558 - Color Week

 Maria picked these colors for Just Us Girls this week:

The colors reminded me of  Halloween and I had a partial background stamped so I just finished it up.

The side "banners" were made with a Christmas tree from RC.  I die cut the panel with MFT's wonky stitches and matted it with purple and orange paper.  The die cut is from Gina Marie and the sentiment is from EbyE.  

What do you think of when you see the challenge colors?  The Design Team and our guest designer Karen Walker all have some wonderful cards to inspire you.  If you join in and are chosen Chic of the Week, you could be our guest designer.

Krafty Chicks Challenge #502

I'm back for the second week of guest designing at Krafty Chicks Challenge.  This week's theme is Christmas. 

I combined a sentiment from Scrapbook.com with a silhouette stamp from Woodware.  The stitched square was inked with Distress Ink and then a stencil from HoneyBee added a few stars including the main one made with Nuvo Glimmer Paste.

I hope you will check out what the Design Team has made for the challenge and get started on your Christmas cards, if you haven't already.

CAS Christmas - October

I'm not a big scene maker but when the challenge asks for one I oblige.  And CAS Christmas asked for one.

I embossed the Woodware image onto the MFT dome and then blended on Distress Ink.  The sentiment comes from the same set.  EZPZ.

Thanks for dropping by.  How are your Christmas cards coming along?

Addicted to CAS #318

Barb is our host for the challenge at Addicted to CAS and she's picked this as the code word:

I decided to ink up a rainbow and wanted it to angle across my card like a real one angles across the sky.

I taped of the card front and used Distress Inks.  The die cut silhouette grounds the card and a beautiful rainbow calls for a beautiful sentiment.  This one is from HA.

My team mates have some wonderful rainbow cards for your inspiration.  And for incentive there is a $20 HLS gift certificate waiting for the winner of the challenge. We'd love to see your rainbow card in the gallery.

CAS Watercolor September Challenge

Heaven knows I have a number of silhouette stamps so making a card for the CAS Watercolor Challenge was a no brainer.  In fact you may see a second card soon.  But first let's take a look at this one.

I did watercolor block stamping for my background.  Actually I did a double stamping because I wasn't liking the first sky color and the green was too light.  This is much better.  The silhouette is from PB and the sentiment is a NBUS one from TT.

Happy Little Stamper has a CAS Challenge that is asking for a silhouette so I'm sending this to them too.

I'm glad you dropped by.  Please come back again.
