JUST US GIRLS #298 - Color Week



Good morning all! It's COLOR WEEK at JUST US GIRLS! Ina is your hostess this week, and she's picked these gorgeous colors for you to play with. Here's the card I've made:


 and the inside:

I'm really enjoying using word builder stamp sets lately. (Especially ones with cuss words, although I went with a PG rated version for my card. LOL!) I did some retail therapy and purchased this abstract cover up from MFT. I love it! I cut it out of orange, burgundy, yellow and black card stock, then randomly pieced it back together. (and now I have three more cards to make using these colors!) After die cutting the tag, I stamped the sentiment and beer mug, then colored it with Prisma Color pencils. I used a couple word builder sets to make the inside sentiment.

I hope you get the chance to play along this week at Just Us Girls! Remember, that if you are picked as Chic of the Week for any of our June challenges, you'll be in the running to be our Guest Designer for the month of August! Please do yourself a favor and check out what the other ladies and our June GD, Ros Crawford, have made for this challenge. You won't be disappointed! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
