Just Us Girls #726 ~ Just Want To Remind You

 

Hello sweet peeps! Are you ready for a new challenge at Just Us Girls? Stephanie is our hostess with the mostest this week and she's looking for your take on the word 'GARDEN'.

 

I thought this pair of bunnies by Michelle Masters fit the bill. They look to me like they're lounging in their garden and having a chat while munching on carrots! They even have a topiary garden umbrella! A touch of ink blending for the background and Copic coloring was all this needed. 

Okeydokey, it's your turn now!
Thanks for stopping by to visit!

Poppystamps

 

Hello lovelies! I have a couple of cards for you on the Poppystamps blog today. I hope you have a moment to check out what I've created using two of the Nordic Butterfly die sets!

Life is Beautiful

Good morning! Life is beautiful and it does get busy! I'm here this morning with a card that's headed right over to The Paper Players gallery before it closes then I'm back to the business! 

I swapped out the squares in Joanna's sketch for a quartet of small Carta Bella wreaths. They're topped with a PTI peony bloom and a couple of Poppystamps butterflies. The sentiment and it's banner came from the same Carta Bella set. I picked the ME scalloped frame to mimic the look of the wreaths. Hubs thought it was pretty, I hope you do too!

 

Thanks for visiting, I love it when you do!

Just Us Girls #725 ~ Have a Beautiful Day

 

Hey there! It Color Week at Just Us Girls and the start of a new month. That means a new guest designer. Please join me in welcoming Jenny Martin who will be with us for the month of May!

 

May in Ohio says lilacs to me, so I inked up this pretty branch by Impression Obsession. It was stamped first in gray ink, next in Versa Mark, then heat embossed with clear powder before coloring with Copics. I cut the panel with a PTI postage die. The sweet gingham Teardrop Butterflies are by Poppystamps and the sentiment is Altenew. Easy peasy!

I look forward to seeing what you do with our colors this week.

It's sure to be a pretty gallery!

Just Us Girls #724 ~ Cherish Every Kindness

 

 

It's stencil week at Just Us Girls! 
Anything goes as long as you use a stencil. 

 

I've used the pretty Altenew Golden Days stencil set for today's card. It's a big flower that fills a card panel beautifully. After stenciling, I cut the panel with the Pinkfresh Folk Edge die. This was layered onto a light pink panel then the white card base. I thought this lovely Poppystamps sentiment paired well with this fine flower!

We hope you'll pull out some of your stencils and whip up a card for our gallery!Speaking of galleries, I'm adding this one to The Paper Players!

That's it from me today. We're off to Sweet P's third grade concert this evening. I'm told there will be singing and playing of the recorders!
