Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
It's my final week Guest Designing with the Just Us Girls Challenge. It has been such fun
joining in with this lovely group that has welcomed me so warmly.
Thank you for the opportunity to join your fabulous Design Team this month.
The challenge this week is....
I apologize to those who don't like spiders. But this guy is so cute!
He's not scary at all!
He's hanging in the middle of the card and needed something to help him
stand out. I had a new pumpkin die set and used it to cut a stencil of the outline.
After ink blending some orange ink through the stencil, I used the dies that are
for cutting layers for the pumpkin to trace around with a colored pencil to
give the pumpkin some dimension.
I hope you'll go to the JUGS website and see what the Design Team has done
to inspire you. Once inspired, use the center of your card to make something to
share over there.

OMG..Such a clever way to use your pumpkin die as a stencil for your awesome..use just the center CAS card for the Just Us Girls Challenge, Bonnie. You have been an inspiring Guest of Honor... I have been concentrating on Christmas cards the last couple of weeks for my stash...I just hit 50, so can now play in some challenges. I always make about 60 cards and a few tags, so feeling much better about my goal. TFS Love and Hugs, dear friend.
ReplyDeleteYour spider certainly is cute; I think that's because he's fuzzy! Your pumpkin and spider pairing are perfect for this challenge and for wishing someone a wicked good day! Thank you so much for being our guest designer this month, with cards that are inspired and inspiring!

I'm not one bit afraid of your eight-legged friend today - though 'cute' isn't a word I'd normally use to describe a spider! lol You get an A++ for ingenuity today - love how your clever stenciling kept the layers down to a minimum on your CAS card!
ReplyDeleteYou have been such a wonderful guest designer, Bonnie! I've loved every card!
Can't wait to play along!
