Just Us Girls Challenge #16 - Color Challenge!

elcome back to Just Us Girls for another awesome challenge!  This week I'm hosting our color challenge (JUGS16).  I chose this palette because I ♥ these colors together, but more importantly I thought they were totally appropriate for Valentine's Day.  Yes, I kept it somewhat "Valentine-typical", BUT, they're soooo pretty! 

Huge thank you to Mona for helping me find just the right photo for my graphic :]  I needed help this week!  I'm a little behind (as usual ;)  Oh, and speaking of Mona...what a FANTASTIC turn out we had for her stitching challenge last week!  We're so thrilled you came out with your needle (and thread or markers) in force!!  Stitching is one popular technique ;]  You all provided some AMAZING eye candy!!

How about a little more eye candy to get you inspired this week?  Check out our amazing Design Teams' projects...to include our fab January Guest Designer, Ms. Gabby Arriaza!
















Gabby Arriaza - Our January Guest Designer ♥

WHy does it all come on the same day>?!?

LOVE the colors! I could make a zillion cards with them as inspiration - and probably will!

Beverly G said...

Love all the DT cards, couldn't chose a favorite.

To me, this colors were a challenge. I struggle with the gray in any color combo. It was fun and relatively easy. I fell in love with Tracey's sketch and used it for another card that I have on my blog. Thanks Tracey!
