Join us! It is MOODBOARD week at Just Us Girls. Bobby is challenging us to be inspired by the moodboard above in creating our cards this week.
If you watch my cardmaking, you know I love big, white sentiments that will serve numerous occasions. "Just a note", "Hello", and "Sending Smiles" are some of my favorite all-purpose sentiments. I especially love sentiment backed in vellum. From the moodboard, I focused on the orange berries and the fall "feel". I picked a plaid DSP with strong fall colors. I die cut one of KWerner's new berry branches, adding in orange berries and gold Mirricard leaves. Before assembling, I embossed the edges of the DSP. The final touch was crystal Stickles on the berries. I made a half dozen of these cards for my donation stash.

The white sentiment is so striking with that fabulous plaid and pretty berry! Awesome inspired card!
Smitten with your plaid and berries background; perfect for the eye-catching white sentiment. A marvelous take on the mood board.

I like every wonderful element, Elizabeth! From the fabulous plaid background to the touch of sparkle on the berries. This is a delightful card!
Those berries are bold enough to hold their own against the fun plaid background, Elizabeth. I love the touches of gold and glitter.
Elizabeth, what a fabulous take on the mood board! I love those berries, and the large sentiment with that fabulous plaid background. Everything being oversized works beautifully together. Thanks again for having me along as GD this month!

Elizabeth, I see your love of a big bold sentiment and second that emotion! It always makes a wonderful statement and today I'm mad about your plaid, too!

A beautiful fall plaid used for the background of your large sentiment and lovely stem of berries!
Gorgeously bold bright and beautiful Elizabeth. Love that plaid background showing off those berries and big sentiment.
