Just Us Girls - Guest Designer!


I'm Guest Designer at Just Us Girls for this month, another honour and pleasure!  The first challenge of the month is a sketch, and here it is:


I thought I'd go wonky with the four panels, so I stamped images from Woodware across the panels, then sloshed Distress Inks over the images, deliberately going over the lines and offsetting the colours.  I adhered the panels at different angles to emphasise the wonkiness.  The background pattern is stamped using the back of a strip stamp.

Head on over to the Just Us Girls blog to see what the design team have created with the sketch and join in!
