Hello,
Welcome to Just Us Girls Challenge #783, where Vicki has selected Water as Word Week inspiration. Loads of choices with this one.
Once again, we're delighted to have Donna Mikasa joining us as our July Guest Designer.
I've been taking Spellbinders Colour Deck Card classes, via Zoom, with Glitter & Ink, a craft supplies retailer in Canada. One of our assignments was to select a deck card that had our less favourite colour combinations and create a project with that palette.
Below is my assignment, featuring Waffle Flower's Happy Crabs and my 'stylized' version of water. It's a bit more bold and artsy than my usual style but...it's kind of grown on me.
Just as a reference, here's the Colour Deck card that influenced my colour choices:
My recipe: Chiffon cardstock for flowers and shells; Coral - used Coral Reef ink (Pinkfresh); Sicily - used Sorbet ink (C & 9th); Blue Spruce - used Oceanside ink (C & 9th); Cosmic Sky - used Scuba ink (Simon Says).
Please head over to the main blog to see fabulous inspiration from Donna and the rest of my amazing team.
Looking forward to seeing how WATER inspires you.

You won me over with those stripes! The fun colored crabs pinched me too 😉
Carol... the class you are taking sounds brilliant! Love your two cards for the palette. The ragged stripes for the background are perfect!
What fun cards. Looks like you are enjoying the class.
Hugs and Blessings
OMGosh... this is fantastic, Carol! Love your design, the colors and those cutie little crabs!
I really like your bold colors and stripes, Carol. I applaud you for striking out of your comfort zone! You nailed it!
Your stylized water looks amazing and the crabs are quite happy too!
