Just Us Girls #119 Technique Challenge

Saturday, January 14, 2012


Good morning! Lynn here today! It's Saturday and it's time to kick off another challenge here at Just Us Girls! When looking for techniques, I thought it would be fun to try something that encourages us to stretch the use of our stamps. So...I hopped on over to Splitcoast Stampers and found this tutorial for collage stamping. I love to layer my stamps in different ways. I hope you do too...myself and the other Just Us Girls Design Team members can't wait to see what you create!

Chic of the Week #118

Friday, January 13, 2012
Well y'all have done it again - we had good participation and awesome entries. I know we say this every week but it is SO hard to choose from so much beauty and diversity. We were tickled PINK with the projects y'all came up with from the simple sketch this week. We can't thank you enough for participating in our challenges and being such an inspiration to all of US girls as well! :-)

After a thorough review all the entries multiple times, we finally settled on this beauty for our chic of the week. This time the honor goes to.....

Carla Suto for this lovely card



We loved the warm, earthy colors in her DPs, the die cut frame is a delightful accent, Carla's coloring is just divine and she wrapped it all up with a beautiful bow and flower to boot!  Well done Carla and well done gals overall!

Carla please contact us for your badge. Meanwhile hope to see you all back on Saturday for a whole new challenge.
