Just Us Girls Challenge #711 - Stencil Week

 

This is a new challenge for us over at JUGS.  You just need to use a stencil somewhere on your card.  Everything - go for it.

 

I started with stenciling against the lower left corner, using 2 colors of ink.  Separately, I stamped, colored with Copics, and used my Scan & Cut, to cut out this lovely flower from Woodware, Gardenia.

I made some extra HB's with my Hot Foil Machine [a few weeks ago], and used one of those.  I am also entering this into the Inkspirational Challenge #307; Stencil.

 

Your turn!  Come on over to JUGS #711 and play along!  We are hoping this will be a popular category.

Addicted to CAS Challenge - Only Dies

I do love this type of challenge.  I have so many dies, and using them, makes me very happy. 😀

I used a strip die for the strips [no crooked cutting when using these!], a couple of unbranded foliage dies, the cute Santa stamp and die [retired],and lastly, a GKD sentiment strip using the matching dies.  [Again retired]

My center panel was cut with my have-had-them-forever Spellbinders Matting A&B sets.

I need to get busy making Christmas cards since December 1st [when I mail] will be here in a blink!
 

Your turn.  Come on over to Addicted to CAS Challenge and play along with your dies only 😀

Just Us Girls Challenge #673 - Color Week

It's been a minute since we have only had a 2 color challenge.  Ok by me.

Due to the fact I live in Arizona, these 2 colors instantly screamed terracotta pot and cactus.

So I made some!  These cute images I have had like forever, but really never had a reason to use them.  This challenge was perfect! I even hand colored!  That also has been like forever! lol

Your turn!  Come on over to the JUGS #673 challenge and show us how you use these 2 colors.

Seize the Birthday Challenge - CAS card

 I do love making clean and simple cards, so this challenge, right up my alley.

I used some unbranded products - no idea who's they are, except, the sentiment. That is from Simon Says Clean Lines Everyday.

I went with an uncolored image to stand out against the colored layered background.

Your turn!  Come on over to Seize the Birthday Challenge and join in.  While being CAS is a twist, being a birthday card is not.  Have fun!

Just Us Girls Challenge #641 - Color Week

 

At first I wandered about this color combo - but oh my my - I do love it!

 

I "direct to paper" colored a card panel, and cut it out using an unbranded coverplate. I cut the rest of the die cuts - [none of which I know where from = unbranded from now on].

The sentiment is from Simon Says Sentiment Strips.

 

Okay, your turn!  Come on over to the JUGS Challenge #641 and show us how the colors inspire you.
