Chic of the Week #315

Hello and a big thank you to all who played along at Color Week! You all really rocked the color challenge, and it was soooo hard to pick just one entry that stood out! Unfortunately, some of you added colors that were not part of the challenge, and therefore, were disqualified from being considered as a winner. (insert sad trombone music here.) So, that being said, our newest Chic of the Week is:


 


I was drawn to that background and the haunted house scene she created! So cool!! Congratulations Vicki!  Please email me at cdring at comcast dot net for your Chic of the Week badge!

Please join us tomorrow for Photo Week. Ina has picked an incredible photo to get your creative juices flowing! 

Hope to see you in the gallery!

Just Us Girls #315 - Color Week

Hello and good morning to you all! Chris here, and I'm your hostess for COLOR WEEK! Since Halloween is right around the corner, I chose some colors that would work well with that Holiday. But don't worry, some of the gals used the colors in a completely different way, and they rocked it!


Your challenge is to use ORANGE, BLACK, and PURPLE on your project! Remember, neutrals (white, kraft, gray, brown) can be used also but please do not add other colors to your project. You'll forfeit the chance to be picked as Chic of the Week otherwise. Here's what we all came up with, starting with our October Guest Designer:

Chic of the Week #314

A huge THANK YOU to all who played this week for Trend WEEK. 
 It appears you all really enjoyed the Stencil challenge by
the looks of the gallery and all the fabulous entries!
I really had a terrible time narrowing down my selection, 
but I know I can only pick one winner!

Our Chic of the Week for this week is going to be...



Karren J.

 I was really impressed with the way Karren colored her 
embossing paste for each on of her zig zag lines. 
Such a terrific card!

Congrats Karren!

Please contact me at wer4art@aol.com 
to get your Chic of the Week badge! 

Please join us tomorrow for Color Week, 
 as Chris has chosen some wonderful colors 
for us to use!

Hope to see you in the gallery!

Trend Week #314

Hello and Happy Saturday!  
Nancy here as your hostess for Trend Week! 
 I decided since stencils are still as popular as they were a few months
 ago we might as well bring them back around again.
As you will see on my card and some of the others, 
the stencil doesn't necessarily have to be on the entire card. 
 You can use a little or a lot, the choice is yours!

Can't wait to see what you do with this challenge!

Chic of the Week #313

What a beautiful collection of sympathy cards you have created!  Thanks for all of the inspiration you have provided with all of your caring and soothing cards.

You all have made this a very tough decision to chose a Chic of the Week, but I have finally narrowed it down and made a decision.  Our Chic of the Week for our Word Challenge is Marina!


I just love the beautiful background she has created in such pretty, calming colors with the silhouette flowers.  Congratulations, Marina!  Email me at qvande@hotmail.com to receive your Chic of the Week badge.

Be sure to come back tomorrow to check out our Trend Week Challenge with Nancy!
