This week's inspiration challenge is brought to us by Lisa and I just love those painted spools and the fabulous colour combination! So many wonderful ways you can go with this inspiration photo.Since I have been working at hubby's office all week, stamping time is very short so today's card is a "cheater card".... I immediately thought of Stampin' Ups Season of Friendship set and it was a perfect match to the trees with the birds in them. Think this is the fastest card I have ever made! Nothing like taking an inspiration photo literally!
The rest of the JUGS team, along with our February Guest Designer Melissa Hubert, have some wonderful samples to get your inspiration going, so head on over to the Just Us Girls blog and check out what they've created. Then put your creative genes to work and add your card/project to the challenge post on the JUGS blog for the chance to be chosen as the Chic of the Week. Plus if you are chosen as Chic of the Week, you could be invited to be a Guest Designer.
Down time this weekend will only consist of Sunday afternoon as some friends are moving and we will be helping them unpack so they can get settled quickly. Always remember how much I appreciated it when friends helped me move, so it will be a joy to have someone else be able to enjoy that same feeling :)
Have a fabulous weekend!

Stamps: Seasons of Friendship (Stampin' Up)
Paper: Kraft, White (Stampin' Up),
Ink: Black, Sage Shadow, Only Orange (Stampin' Up)

It's adorable...no cheating here but, I can imagine quick!! Me...I've been dealing with crazy stuff for two months and then....computer elbow/tendonitis!! Couldn't make cards-work on computer-do anything without pain....cure is resting the arm sooo....I've been trying to learn to use my left hand with mouse and well, everything!! Hope you and your family are doing well!
Simple, eye-catching, striking! No cheating here; only an amazing, thoughtful, inspiring card. Love it! Speaking of thoughtful: how generous of you to spend time helping your friends settle into their new home. Enjoy!
