Just Us Girls Challenge #744 - Word Week - Hope - Love, Joy, Hope, Peace (TH Christmas Cutouts)

Hello,

Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #744, where our lovely hostess, Sue, has selected HOPE as inspiration for Word Week. Hope...so many directions to go with this simple, yet powerful word.

 Once again, we're delighted to have Nancy joining us as our September Guest Designer.

My many Tim Holtz/Sizzix dies need attention; today's card features Christmas Cutouts. A quick search of examples lead me to this card, created by one of Tim's incredibly talented designers, Cathie Cowles. I full-on cased her. Busier than my usual but once in a while, it's okay to step out of the comfort zone.


Looking forward to seeing how *HOPE* will appear on your cards/projects.



Thank you for dropping by!

  3. I too own this set, and I have never used it. I love the way you used it - the papers you used the stars in the inside curve of the moon in the corner, the light in the windows... very warm and welcoming. Great take on our word!
