This has been an absolutely crazy week. I have been busy working between two departments at work and staying late most nights and school is in full swing. ( I have just started grad school for my Masters in nursing) Today was my day off and I ended up going into work to help out. The gist of this rant is that I have been behind in everything I had to do this week.
Luckily, this week's challenge card has been made for weeks. Remember my crafting weekend? I worked way ahead on many of my challenges because I knew September was going to be trying.
If you are interested, just play in this week's challenge and when uploading your card, put a DT after your name. The Team will then discuss and vote for the chosen new JUGHEAD. We will announce the new member on Saturday, September 20th. The new member will officially start in the October 4th challenge. Good Luck!
This weeks tend challenge by Vicki is right on point- water coloring! Most of you know I have been all over this especially since I took the online water coloring class with Jennifer Maguire and Kristina Werner. My card today is a technique I learned from the class using stencils.
The quick version is that you make a very wet watercolor wash and then press your stencil into the wash and let it sit till it dries and then pull the stencil off.
I think the saying is perfect for the challenge because- "Yes you all can do anything!!"
I hope many of you will considering applying as a DT member. I am the newbie at JUGS. I have been with them for a year this month and not only are the challenges fun, but the DT are wonderfully creative and supportive women!
I hope to see your watercolor creations this week at Just Us Girls!
