JUST US GIRLS #335 - Color Week


Hi everyone! I'm your hostess for Color Week at JUST US GIRLS. Since Spring/Easter is just around the corner, (it's really early this year!), I thought some pastel colors were in order. I chose PASTEL PINK, YELLOW, and PURPLE. For my challenge, any light neutrals are welcome, but please only use the three colors picked for the challenge. (That means no blues, oranges, greens...you know who you are! LOL!) Here is the trio (Yep, three!) of cards I've made:






It's the same sentiment on the inside of all cards: 

I started with an 8-1/2" x 11" sheet of white card stock, and went about randomly stamping the bunny then the basket in the 3 challenge colors. Then I die cut 4 panels from it. (I still need to make one more card) I made card bases with card stock in the three colors. I stamped the sentiment onto scraps of the same card stock using similar colored ink, and cut them into a banner. As a last touch, I added sequins in the same challenge colors to all the cards. So simple, and I was able to crank out more than one card in a session of crafting! Yay me! 

I hope you find some time to play along with our color challenge at Just Us Girls! I look forward to seeing what you make with the colors! Just a reminder, if you are picked as Chic of the Week for any of our March challenges, you'll be in the running to be our Guest Designer for the month of May! Good luck and happy crafting!
