Just Us Girls - Anything Goes Week



Welcome to another Just Us Girls!  This week Vicki is our fabulous hostess with Wild Card week and she picked "Anything Goes"! I hope you will come play!  Vicki is even tossing in a prize this week if we get over 75 entries to the challenge.

With it being the 4th of July this coming week in the US I wanted to do a patriotic themed card.  This set was just released over at Unity Stamp Co and it's called Stronger Together. 

I colored the flowers with Tombo markers and added a few drops to the centers using Nuvo Glitter Drops.


Check out what the amazing Design Team came up with:

Just Us Girls Trend Week



It' Trend week and Alcohol Inks is our challenge.  I created my background using a dry technique that Sally Lynn MacDonald created to use on the Gel Press plate!  Basically you apply alcohol inks t a gel press plate and because they dry pretty quick you can then using a basic paint pull a print.  Check out her great video here.
