Just Us Girls Week 8 - Color Challenge!

Welcome to Week 8 (already?) of challenges here at Just Us Girls! I was looking at our followers count and was so surprised and pleased to see 213 followers! You like us, you really like us! (I'm channeling Sally Field's Oscar acceptance speech!) We have literally been blown away by all your fabulous entries!

I'm very pleased to present our color challenge for this week. Since Thanksgiving is right around the corner, I thought I'd give you colors we typically see, but with a fresh twist. I chose Pumpkin Pie, Really Rust, and Bashful Blue. The blue really pops against these colors. I'm only using SU colors as a reference...if you do not have them, don't worry. Just match the colors you have closest to these. And since we are in the season of thanks, we'd like for you to make your card reflect that sentiment.
How to Play: You need to upload your project using this week's challenge to your online blog or public photo gallery. Leave a link that goes directly to your project in the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of this post. If you upload to online galleries, please also use the keyword or tag, JUGS8. After you post to Mr. Linky, you can also leave a comment here.

Deadline to be considered for "Chic of the Week" will be 9:00 PM EST on Thursday, November 26th. Our top pick "Chic of the Week" will be announced on Friday morning following the deadline. (You may still post to the Mr. Linky after the deadline, you project just won't be considered for the "Chic of the Week" spot.)

So let's see what the girls have created to get your creative juices flowing! I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with these colors!

I hope you have fun with these colors! Thanks for joining us in this color challenge and Happy Thanksgiving!

During this week of Thanksgiving, I must say that I am grateful for my new online mentors and this amazing site! Happy Thanksgiving!"
