Hello and welcome! There's a brand new "Trend Challenge" this week at Just Us Girls hosted by Cecile and she has chosen "a square card featuring at least one square shape."
We have the amazing Cornelia Wenokor for our guest this month, be sure to check out her card and all the design team creations to inspire you on the new challenge!
As soon as I saw the challenge theme I knew I wanted to use the Pinkfresh Studio "Floral Squares" dies so I cut them from black and also from card stock that I had watercolored with Distress Oxides.
I matted each die cut on a black square and then cut a card base to fit all for of them. Next I added some pearls in different sizes Since I didn't have an envelope this size, I made from from some patterned paper in my stash.
Here you can see the front of the envelope where I used Altenew's "Happy Mail" stamp set and dotted rectangle die to make mailing labels. After stamping and cutting the out, I ran them through my Xyron machine to make them into address labels.
I hope you will have time to join us this week! Can't wait to see what you create!

This is stunning, Angie. The colorful cuts on black really pop and the white spacing around them and the sentiment add a lot to the design.
