Just Us Girls Challenge #3...let's get some color on!

I am thinking of YOU, my bloggy friends, and a new challenge at the Just Us Girls challenge site!  This week it's a color challenge hosted by lil ol me!  I hope you'll play along with us..

Yummy!  I love this color combo!  Red, aqua, and cream can be so many different genres when they play together.  I can't wait to see what you make with them.  Link your creation up on the JUGs site in the Mr Linky to be entered for a teeny bit of custom blog candy and the opportunity to be the next Chic of the Week!
Here's my shot at the color challenge.  Some Papertrey Ink products mixed with bling, a vintage button and a handmade fabric flower!  Do you like the flower?  I hope so!  Want some?  I hope so!  :)  All you have to do to earn a chance at a some of these babies in various fabrics is make something for our challenge.  You can see all the details at the Just Us Girls blog.
Mmmm hhhhmmmm, yep!  That is some FUN with FABRIC right there!  OK, perhaps I have been hanging out too near my stash of liquid adhesives, but I am just tickled by that sassy bloom :) 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  You can find all of the JUGs girls projects at the blog but for the juicy details, check out their amazing personal blogs as well:

Supplies:

Dana this was a fantastic challenge and a totally rockin' entry from you - what an inspiration. Your simple layout is the perfect setting for that STUNNING and fresh flower. OMG I love it - Some lucky winner will be very happy this week with your generous offering (Maybe I'll enter incognito LOL) SO glad you are on this team - you are always a source of inspiration :-) Sorry I'm so late in commenting - been gone all weekend and NO internet at the hotel - GEEZ!
