Just Us Girls #718 ~ Just a Note!

 

We have something fun for you this week at Just Us Girls. It's a collaboration with the team at Time Out Challenges!  By entering our linky you will automatically also join at Time Out! This will be a two week challenge running until March 27th. That's lots of time for you to create what 'BIRDS of a FEATHER' means to you and join us!


Whether you join from Just Us Girls or from Time Out, you have a chance to win $25.00 store credit to Waffle Flower Crafts

You can find all of the information needed on the Just Us Girls or Time Out challenge blogs. Okay now for my card!


I lined up a rainbow of Poppystamps birds! They're tucked under an embossed panel that was split for the top and bottom of the card. A pretty little scalloped border (PPP) was added for interest. I like the way the black sentiment (PF) and music notes pick up the black in the bird beaks! 

Okay, it's your turn now. Lets fill up those galleries with oodles and oodles of feathered friends!

Just Us Girls #717 ~ Thanks A Bunch

 

Hey there sweet peeps! It time for a new challenge at Just Us Girls. Tracey McNeely will be joining us for the month of March as our guest designer! Tracey and I have been blogging friends since we both started our blogs back in 2011! I'm so happy to have you joining us, Tracey!

I don't know, you might need your sunglasses for this one! My lime green is Juicy Pear by Bazzill accented with Gumball Green by SU. I picked peach as my third color. A vellum layer was added to some of my flower die cuts (MB) to give them a two toned look. I also added some vellum sprigs (TSM). I'll never grow tired of this sweet flower wrap from Simply Graphic and I had to throw in that Mama Elephant cover plate because it's just so darn pretty! Yep, it's bright but it sure looks like spring!

We would love to have you join us this week. 

Pop over to the JUGs blog for more inspiration from the team!

Showers of Blessings

I have a card for The Paper Players that fits right in with the chilly rainy Wednesday we're having. I can't really complain, the last two days have been a sunny 73!

   

This cutie little frog (Art Gone Wild) always makes a spring appearance. I surrounded him with some sweet little blooms by IO. I know clouds are white or gray, but this polka dot pair from PPP seemed like they needed to be aqua. Am I right? Embossed buds for the background and a sentiment tag (also PPP) finished things off. 


EDIT* My friend Stephanie reminded me that this card fits in at Time Out so I'll be adding it to their gallery as well!

Thanks for stopping by today. I'll be back tomorrow with a new Just Us Girls challenge. Hope to see you then!
