Just Us Girls #312 - Photo Week

Vicki has chosen an awesome photo for our inspiration this week at Just Us Girls!  I love the striking color combination and the mix of patterns.


What inspires you in the photo?  Come see how our Guest Designer - Melissa Dawn Lane and the rest of the JUGS Design Team were inspired.


It's obvious that I was inspired by the patterns and colors.  I stamped the striped background with Belts and Buckles by Stampendous using my MISTI to line it up. The striped stamp is only about an inch wide with 3 stripes.  Then stamped the Stampendous large flourish on top of the stripes.  Flower image and stamped label are by Gina K.  Stamped the black with white polka dots strip and layered it onto a strip of patterned paper from my stash.

Come play along with us and show us how this photo inspires you and you could become our next Chic of the Week, which would give you a chance to become our next Guest Designer!  Please limit your entries to 3,
