I'm Hosting at Just Us Girls for?

Hello and Welcome.

It's Saturday's JUGS Day and it is my turn to 

Be Your Host for our Colour Week and I chose

just 2 colours - Red & Black and you have

the choice to pick a Third.

What colour will you choose?

I picked GOLD! 

I was going to do Christmas but that didn't eventuate.

I started my card by making the background
from Rose Red Brusho's and Aztec Gold PearlEx Powders
with lots of smooching and drying in between
 till I was happy with the coverage.
I then heat embossed my hibiscus flower from 49andMarket
with Stamp It Gold powder.
Added a touch of black to the centre of the flower.
This was then cut with a stitched die and
adhered to a black mat and on to metallic gold card stock.
Finished with gold pearls and die cutting my
Happy Birthday Sentiment which was heat embossed with
Ranger Black mixed with Stamp It Gold.

Pop over to Our Blog and check what our
June Guest Hannelie and the Team have created
and what third colour choice they made.
Hope you can join us this week. If so you could be our
Chic of the Week and be in the running for being
invited to be our Guest in August.

Thanks for dropping in.
Love reading your comments and will be so glad
WHEN Blogger get's notifications fixed.

I'm Simple - eee using New Goodies

Hello and Welcome. I am back from my trip north and

now trying to get back to normal. 

It didn't help that my Annual Craft Show 

was soon after so things aren't quite there yet.

 Off course there were new products purchased that 

I had needed to have a play with and luckily I found a

CAS Challenge to do just that. 

The lovely floral image is from Rubbernecker

and heat embossed with Ranger Red Cinnabar.

I love the look of the gold speckles among it.

Sentiment is from Dark Room Door and heat embossed

with Stamp It Gold.

Added some metallique paint splatters 

then finished by cutting with a

stitched die and adding a gold banner.

This was popped on to white card base.

(BTW My new products are the stamp embossing powder

metallique paint and sentiment stamp.)

Sending this over to

CAS on Sunday for their

Challenge #134 - Embossing.

Thanks for dropping in today.
