Maria has given us a cheery colour combination to work with this week. Personally, I love yellow and orange so this card was great fun to make.
I used an old Paper Players sketch along with new papers from Making Memories and Simple Stories. The sentiment is a Verve's Zephaniah 3:17 Plain Jane, a perfect fit for the friend I am sending this to. She has had a tough year, and I trust this fabulous verse will encourage her. Entering it into the current NBUS theme of friendship.
The rest of the JUGS team along with our June Guest Designer, Shirley-Bee, 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. Simply create a card using the sketch and link it up to the JUGS blog for a chance to be chosen as the Chic of the Week. Remember, if you are chosen as Chic of the Week, you could be invited to be a Guest Designer.
Wishing you a fabulous weekend!
