Pretty Paper Flowers...

HHHeeeeeellllllooooooooooo out there!

Welcome to the weekend!  Yahoo!

It's Saturday - so it's time for another 'Just Us Girls Challenge'.  This week's 3-D challenge comes from my team mate Mona Pendleton.

Here's her challenge:

JUGS4
You MUST see her video -- she makes it look so effortless, and what a nice job she did on the video itself, definitely worth it to watch!

I don't have any of the Nestabilities blossom dies, I only have the old "Nesting Flowers" one, and it worked ok, but I would much rather use the ones with more 'layers' in between, I think.




I brayered my tissue with 3 different colors - Lemon Tart, Summer Sunrise, and Berry Sorbet.

Cut out the various sizes with my nestabilities, and got to work.

I can't decide what it is, but something isn't sitting right with me -- if you have any suggestions, let me know, ok??

Be sure to check out the rest of the team's projects today -- they are no doubt, terrific!


Thanks so much for stopping by - hope that YOU will play along with us, can't wait to see your flowers!!!  You could be the next Chic of the Week!~  A BIG CONGRATS to Gwen Snater!!  Gwen is our Chic of the Week for the JUGS 3 challenge!

Be sure when uploading to use the keyword JUGS4, and link up your project to the Mr. Linky on the challenge blog!!


Have a super day -- we've got some early Halloween events planned for the weekend -- should be fun!

  6. Tracey this flower turned out absolutely gorgeous! I love the mixed colors! I had originally planned to try that then realized an ink CUBE with a brayer takes a LONG time so I went with one of the few full sized ink pads I had. I LOVE your combo of colors and layout. I'm the "DUH" in the group - it took me a moment to realize the ribbon was the STEM LOL - Great idea - I was originally looking at this on my phone so I didn't pick up on what the green ribbon was - SORRY DUH! :-)
