Celebrate! It's Photo Week at JUGS

 
It's Photo Week at Just Us Girls
and Hosting is Lisa who has chosen
rather a fitting photo as 2016 is
a Leap Year and all those who were born
on the 29th get to Celebrate their special day.
 
I looked at the photo and thought how easy was this?
Just some great flourishes and a date.
Well I was wrong. After a few attempts
and some paper being thrown in the bin
I went with this -   

 
Not my favourite and not completely happy
with the end result but sometimes you just have
to say - It's not that bad after all...
 
I kept it cas as the photo is just that.
I used the following items -
White and coloured card stock
Scoring
Framed my flourish which is rightly named
Flourish from Kaisercraft.
inked with Memento Olive Grove (a little too dark )
Sentiment is IBS
Number 18 is from Cuttlebugs Hippie Chick Alphabet
Added some pearls to give my card a lift.
 
Thanks for dropping in and be sure to pop over
and see what has inspired our Guest Pamellia
and the Team.

For a 'Special Friend'

 
Our latest challenge at
is being Hosted by Marlene
and she has chosen the Theme
'For a Special Woman'
and I had a Special Friend in mind
so I made this card just for her.
 
 
I made it fairly cas as she is one that doesn't go
all over the top fancy with her cards.
 
I used the following products on my card -
Basic card stock Doily
Flower is inked with SU Rich Razzleberry
from Gina K Designs
Sentiment (perfect for my friend) is from
Lily of the Valley and given to me by her
so it is pretty special.
Framed with Spellbinders Circles/Lacey Circles
Punch is from Fiskars
and a few rhinestones.
 
Pop on over to our blog and see
what my Team Mates created
and hope you get the chance to
Make something for a Special Lady
in your life.
