My Cruise gal Pam is involved in a new venture with some of her blogging friends called Just Us Girls, JUGS for short (add giggling here)! They are doing weekly challenges and this weeks is paper piercing. I knew I had to do this one because I LOVE paper piercing! There was an option to add pink as well and I was all over that.
We don't have alot of craft stores here (we have Michael's of course) but only a couple local shops. So when they get stock in it usually goes really quick. So when I saw this set from MFT I knew I had to grab it as it wouldn't be there tomorrow. I paper pieced the dress, coffee cup and background, perfect stamp set to do this technique with!
Ok, it is snowing here and I think it might be a day just to stay in and stamp! Well that and laundry, cleaning and dying hair! Ciao!
Stuff:
Stamps: MFT Coffee?
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Cameo Coral, Bo Bunny dp
Supplies: Nesty's, Cameo Coral ribbon, Hodgepodge in Pewter, Prima flower and PTI button, Copics
oooh..nice job GF

Wendy Girlfriend - this is just total mojoliciousness. I LOVE the piecing on the dress - the sleeve looks so 3D and real it's amazing. Of course the DP and sentiment are right up my alley! I am tickled pink but not surprised to see that you added in the PINK option (LOL - Why am I NOT surprised?!?) THANK you Wendy for supporting the JUGS (*insert wicked giggle here*) and playing along with us. YOU ROCK. Big hugs and OMG you said the S word. It was 28 here today - eeeeek it's only OCTOBER..

Oh! What a fabulous girlfriend card! I love all the pink that you used on your card! I love how her sleeve "POPS" off the card! You did a fantastic job with all the paper piecing! Thanks for playing along with Just Us Girls challenge! I hope to see more of your creations in the weeks to come! Don't forget to grab your JUGS blinkie :) TFS

Wendy, this is fabulous! I love that you not only paper pieced her dress, but the coffee cup and the background also! Thanks for reminding me to think outside the box (I hate that phrase...not sure why I just used it) ;] I also think it was so clever of you to pop up her sleeve! Really adds a great dimension with that simple step.
Oh and love the sentiment...friendship has it's "perks"...just perfect for our "JUGS" challenge :O)
Thanks so much for playing with Just Us Girls! We are having so much fun and are super excited to see talent like yours joining us so early! Hope to see you next Saturday for our Color Challenge!
