This week's Just Us Girls sketch challenge is brought to us by Maria. I took some creative liberty with the sketch (sorry Maria) and added a tag - a skewed tag at that lol - as my main panel and the sentiment migrated on to the tag. This week's Colour Q challenge was a fabulous one so I used it with the sketch as I just loved the mix of colours :) A definite use again combo.
Pulled out some of my favorites for this card: flowers, scalloped borders, Verve's Elegant Leaf die, tags, butterflies, half pearls, and my French Script background stamp. Happy sigh... :)The rest of the Design Team have some great samples to get your inspiration going. Just pop over to the JUGS blog for a peek at their wonderful creations.
We'd love to have you play along with us this week. Simply create a card using this week's sketch and link it to the JUGS blog and you may be selected as Chick of the Week :)
Thanks for popping by and have a fabulous week! We are getting ready for school to start next week and enjoying the long weekend as a family before our schedules ramp up once again. Hope you have a great one too :)

ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you create with your NEW VERVE GOODIES!
Beautiful tag card, Marissa, love the stamped script background! So happy to see you this week at the colourQ.
ReplyDeleteI love the added skewed tag! And, I think that Colour Q is the best color challenge in blogland. Though I don't like using 4, the combos are amazing!
ReplyDeletesuch a great colour combination :) Love those sweet butterflies :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, Marisa! Love the white tag against the kraft backround (and the subtle text on it)!
ReplyDeleteLove these flowers and butterflies. Your skewed tag is perfect. This really is a great colour combo.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful! Love all the little details!
ReplyDeleteTHIS card makes me happy on SO many levels! SUCH fun use of color and WHAT a glorious take on this week's sketch, Marisa! *LOVE!* Those butterflies - Mmmm, hmmmm! THAT'S the guuud stuff! <3
ReplyDeleteLOVE this turquoise flower popping against the neutrals! Beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteLove the tag idea and your layered flower with leaves is a wonderful addition!
ReplyDeleteI love french script too, and how you placed those little pearls, Marisa!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous....way to go getting that color combo to look good....it scared me!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! I love the skewed tag and the pretty layered flowers. The subtle script background is a nice touch! So glad you played along with us at colourQ!
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous! That burst of blue colored flowers is so eye-catching! And of course I love the skewed tag...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pops of turquoise, and I am still smitten by that leaf die but can't bring myself to put it in my cart just yet. :) Love the script background on kraft, too.
ReplyDeleteWow great work with these 2 challenges. I love how the crimped flowers pop off the card in this colour. Nice use the tag.
ReplyDeleteLooks as if I've gotten behind on commenting.
ReplyDeleteThat blue flower is awesome and just pops out the minute you open up this card. Wow!
You did a skewed panel..without having that as the challenge? You've gotten very brave, Marisa. :-)
