Just Us Girls #661 - Color Week

Hello friends!  Happy New Year!  I hope your holidays were wonderful.

Just Us Girls is back from a month long hiatus and the first challenge of the year is Color Week and I'm the hostess.  I hope you like the colors I chose! 

I wanted to used snowflakes for this challenge and have been mulling it over for a while.  I found this layered snowflake from the now defunct Reverse Confetti.  I started by die cutting the backing piece from white, the next layer from dark blue, and added the accents in light blue and dark blue.  I added shimmer to it and then a white pearl to the center.  I used a snowflake stencil with tumbled glass ink on the background piece.  I die cut that piece with a stitched rectangle then with a thin frame die.  I also die cut the thin frame from navy cardstock and added it to the background.  The sentiment was stamped with Juniper ink.  My niece's birthday is next week, so this will be sent to her.

You can see more from the JUGs design team and our new guest for January, Jules Peddicord, on the JUGs blog.  Welcome Jules!

Thanks for stopping by!
