It's Mood Board Week at Just Us Girls. Lisa is our host, and she has chosen a bee-u-ti-ful mood board for our inspiration. So many wonderful images and colors for us to choose from. Bonnie Klass continues with us as our August Guest Designer.
For my card, I was inspired by the general feel of bees, flowers, honey and the beautiful late summer colors.
I loved this recent sketch from Freshly Made Sketches,
and although I missed posting a card there in time, I used it as inspiration for the layout of my card here. It's fabulous for using patterned papers. As soon as I saw this mood board, my thoughts went to Essentials By Ellen One In A Buzz-illion stamp & die set. The Graphic 45 papers came as a gift in a shipment from Unity Stamp Company (I believe), and were so perfect for this project.
Please head over to the Just Us Girls Challenge Blog and check out the wonderful creations by Bonnie and the rest of the Design Team. Get crafty with your stash and join us in the gallery! I can't wait to see how our players are inspired.
