Just Us Girls #254


Hi everyone!  I am back sharing my card for my Guest Design spot over at Just Us Girls.  This week is Color Week.  Using the colors Blue, Green and any neutrals.


I love these colors together.  The technique I used is one I learned in the Online Card Class: Stretch Your stamps.  I absolutely love how it turned out and didn't want to cover up much of the background so I embossed my sentiment onto black cardstock.  I then die cut using the new Pinking Edge Sentiment Flag dies by Lil' Inker Designs.  The background stamp is Fronds by Penny Black.

Head on over to the Just Us Girls blog to see what the design team has created and join in!

Thank you for visiting and have a great day!

  23. I totally agree about the background - it's too lovely to cover! I love your simple black banner - it stands out well but is softened with the vellum behind it.
