JUST US GIRLS! #280 - Trend Week

Hello crafty peeps! It's Saturday and that means there's a new challenge starting at JUST US GIRLS! Ina is your hostess this week, and she's picked a fabulous trend: burlap! 

You can find this stuff everywhere! In home decor, flower arrangements, jewelry, and even cards!

 Here's the inside:

I know it's Valentine's Day, but I'm so done with the holiday. (wink) Hubby and I don't even celebrate it. Besides, my Mom's birthday is coming up and I wanted to make her a card. ☺ I bought an 8-1/2" x 11" um, sheet(?), of burlap last year and I'm very slowly cutting into it. Yay me. I used the current sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches #287. Lots of layers on this card. I love this pretty butterfly paper so that became my color palette. I broke out my trusty ol' Slice die cutter and die cut "Mom" three times. stacked and glued them together, and added Stickles on top for some glittery goodness. It's hard to see, but the bottom sentiment was embossed also.

You can see it a bit better in this photo.

Ready to break out that burlap you've been hoarding and actually use it? Of course you are! Just link up your card or project over at Just Us Girls so we can admire it! While there, please check out what my teammates, and our Guest Designer, Stephanie, have come up with to wow you! Remember that if you win Chic of the Week for any of our February challenges, you'll be in the running to be our Guest Designer for the month of April! Good luck! Have a great day!
