Just Us Girls #290 & Addicted to CAS #62


It's Just Us Girls #290 time.  This week Maria has chosen a beautifully colored inspiration photo for us.  Look at those luscious tulips!  Love them~

Even though I do love tulips, I wasn't in the mood to color them in today.  Good thing I like this Inspired By Stamping image from Tulip Bouquet in black and white.  I added my sponged panel (STAMPlorations Mom Subway Art Builders; Unconditional Love) with the colors from the photo - yep, I like this.


How does the photo inspire you?  Come over and show us at Just Us Girls!  Don't forget to check out the other DT's work while you are there~


We are being sponsored by;

It's also Addicted To CAS challenge today; black, gold and white.  Oh the gallery is going to look gorgeous with this elegant color combo!

I used some inspiration from Pinterest - and naturally, I was drawn to the stripes.  I used Clearly Besotted Diagonal Stripes, a sentiment from ? [I had bought this set, loved it, and have no idea who's it is], and MFT Feather Die-namics.  I went and entered this into the Runway Challenge #82 too.


Now, it's your turn.  Pop on over to Addicted to CAS, check out the DT samples, and then play along!  Like I said, the gallery is going to be fabulous~


Thanks for stopping by~
