Seagull With A Fry

Carol McFarland is our host for this weeks Just Us Girls Challenge where it is Color Week. Carol has chosen a wonderful summery color combination of pink and aqua. This is a great palette to work with!   As this is our firts challenge of a new month, we welcome CAS Queen, Jane Taylor, as our super talented Guest Designer for June.

I just received my Waffle Flower haul that was loaded with summer fun including lots of seagulls. These birds can be a menace, especially if people nearby are feeding them (they love to drop presents from the sky). That said, I love to watch them as they are really very funny creatures. They are brazen enough to swipe a sandwich right out of your hand, or stick their beaks into a temporarily abandoned beach bag in search of some snacks... so I went with Waffle Flower Beach Tote stamp & die combo,  Inquisitive Seagulls dies and lots of lots of shades of the challenge colors to create my card. 

Please head over to the Just Us Girls Challenge Blog and check out the wonderful creations by Jane and 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 by the colors.

Please note: we have created a longer timeframe for our challenges! Wednesdays at 6:00 pm EST will be our new ending time in order to give you another day to get your cards in the gallery! The Winner of the Week will be announced now on Thursdays, an hour before the new challenges open.

Time Out Challenge #138 is up and running with the theme of FUNNY.

Our challenge is sponsored by CAS-ual Fridays. Winner will receive a $25.00 gift voucher for the CAS-ual Fridays store. 

Milla is our Guest Designer. Milla is a very talented paper crafter with an eclectic style and mad coloring skills! Do treat yourself to a visit to her blog and leave her some love. You'll be so glad you did.

For my card, I stamped "WTF" from sponsor stamps WTF2 using VersaFine Vintage Sepia ink on a piece of patterned paper from BasicGrey Kioshi collection. I then cut it out and adhered it to a strip of another paper from the same collection. I added a thin strip of copper colored glitter paper from American Crafts beneath it, stamped the sentiment from WTF2, and added a graphic design from sponsor stamps Bold Wishes.

Please head over to the Time Out Challenges Blog to see what Milla and the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration. Play with us to share your creation, and a chance to win a prize from CAS-ual Fridays. I can't wait to see what you come up with!
