Just Us Girls #251 - Photo Week

It's Photo Week at Just Us Girls and Sharyn chose a great summer picture for us to use as inspiration.

 

 Here's a close up of the photo.  What a fun way to throw a BBQ!

 

I just purchased this beverage stamp set from Simon Says Stamp and was so happy to use it for this challenge.  I also just purchased this brick stencil pattern and pulled out the water color brushes and Distress inks to color the brick pattern (you can see the brick in the background of the photo) and the yummy and colorful beverage.  The straw was cut from some striped pattern paper.  I just love that sentiment too! (But who says it has to be 5:00 to drink?)  Lovin' those sequins too!  I'm thinking I need a new camera.  I have not been happy with my photos for a while.  These colors are so washed out compared to the real card.  I wish you could see how colorful it is!  :-(

 

You can see much more inspiration from the DT gals and our guest designer on these blogs.
