Just Us Girls Photo Inspiration

Vicki is our challenge hostess this week with a gorgeous photo inspiration.


Barbara Campbell is with us again this week as our Guest Designer for the month of May.


My inspiration came from the rug and the vases.  I cut and pieced strips of black and white striped patterned paper for the background then added a silver embossed flourish.  The vases and flowers are from STAMPlorations.  Added some clear Wink of Stella to the vases and a bit of yellow Wink of Stella to the flower centers, then added a couple of dots of Viva Decor Pearl Pen in yellow.

Now it's your turn to play along with us for a chance to become our Guest Designer for the entire month of July.  Can't wait to see all of the fabulous creations that this photo inspires.

Here are some links to the JUGS blog and design team
