Just us Girls #837

 

I just had to enlarge the gorgeous photo that Lisa has provided for
her Mood Board Week at Just us Girls #837 ... take it in for a moment:


The JUGS team and Betty Keefe their guest designer have really made gorgeous cards.  And I had a new set in my hot little crafty hands to play with... 
no time like the present!  I must say I was really inspired by Betty's card!  
Too bad I forgot the butterflies!


Armed with pretty papers from The Stamp Market and PTI,
I die cut all the pieces then added extra color using the inks above.  This set is the
next in the series of its type from Concord & 9th and goes together
so easily just like a layered puzzle using the debossed base piece
as your guide.  Let's start with her closeup:


I love how it turned out and found an embossed panel in my snippets that worked
perfectly so I used the same cardstock for my card base. 

This sentiment set came with the Autumn Splendor bundle - but is sold separately.


Thanks Betty, and Lisa for inspiring my card session today!

Thanks, Lisa - it's an honor!
