Just Us Girls #387 - Word Week

 
Dear Ones~
This week is Word Week over at Just Us Girls, and our gal Nancy has chosen the word SEA.

Here is my example:
I just love this card. The image is a very old stamp from Close to my Heart that I don't think I have ever gotten inky. I colored it with my colored pencils. The texture in the top right corner was done with a Tim Holtz Mixed Media die, and the patterned papers contain a lot of texture as well. They are photos of rusted and rustic images.

Here are the Ingredients:
GKD Dark Chocolate and Sandy Beach Card Stock 
Elizabeth Craft Designs Through the Lens Patterned Paper
Close to my Heart Perfect Day Stamp
Prismacolor Pencils
Sizzix Mixed Media Die
Spellbinders Deckled Rectangle Die
Nuvo Autumn Red Crystal Drops
Stash Linen Thread

I would like to welcome our April Guest Designer, Laurie Unger. She is over-the-top talented. Check out her blog HERE to see what I mean. 

Please visit the JUST US GIRLS blog to see the wonderful examples that Laurie, and the rest of the team have made this week. And remember, if you win Chic of the Week in any of our April challenges, you will be in the running to be chosen as our Guest Designer for the month of June!!   Good luck, and I hope to see you there. 

Thanks for stopping by, I adore your comments!
They always make me smile!!
