Just Us Girls #217 Wild Card: One Layer Card Challenge


Hello Everyone,  
Nancy here, I am very pleased to be hosting this week's Wild Card Challenge!
It's the 5th Saturday of the month...so hence the "Wild" Card.
I decided to make my Wild Card a One Layer Winter Theme and 
since half of the country is experiencing winter it worked out perfectly! 
 Even in sunny Florida, it's going to go
 down to the 50's tonight....Brrrrrrr.....LOL

Anyhow, The girls and I also want to give a shout out and a thank you to 
Nancy Penir our Guest Designer this past month.
  Nancy, you did and awesome job and we sure are impressed 
with your work.  You are very talented! Thanks for playing along with us!

Now, let's go see what my talented team has been up to!

Chic of the Week #215

Thank you to everyone who played along with our colour challenge this past week. I  loved going through all your entries and seeing the vast variety of cards/projects!

This week's Chic of the Week is Sarah with this darling door hanger that she made for the grandson of a woman who boards her horse at her barn.


Loved the fact that Sam gives Sarah's horse Surprise a good night kiss when he comes to the barn with his grandma.  So precious.  Thus this gift from Surprise to Sam :)    

Sarah, please e-mail me at mritzen(at)shaw(dot)ca so I can send you your Chic of the Week badge.

Thanks again to everyone who played along this week! Make sure you come back tomorrow to see the wonderful inspiration picture Vicki  has chosen for us to work with.

Just Us Girls #214 - Technique Challenge

Hello JUGs fans!  This week is our technique week, and I've chosen a simple one:  Create a background of words.  I saw this technique done on this video from Jennifer McGuire, which you can look at to get more inspiration.  So break out all those single word stamps, full background word stamps, or whatever you can muster and create a background of words!

Let's see what our design team created as inspiration for you.
We are happy to announce our November Guest Designer;


♥♥ Just Us Girls Design Team ♥♥
 Vicki
