It's great to see you and I hope you're doing well! Thank you for playing in the February NBUS Challenge with all your goodies! From all the incredible entries, I have randomly chosen #74 Leslie M. to be showcased!
The basic idea of this challenge is evident in the name. Whether it's something you have just purchased or something collecting dust in the back of a drawer, you are tickled when you use something never-before-used in your creation and here is where you share those NBUS works of art! There are instructions for how to link on a tab above.
As you can imagine, I have a huge mountain of NBUS, so I will also proudly share whenever I excavate and use something.
Guest Designer!
To thank you for sharing your NBUS all these years (and/or to schpark your fire if you're in a bit of slump), I am randomly inviting participants to join me as guest designers! This month I'm delighted to welcome Kathy K!
Back when I first started, I threw everything at my cards: buttons, gemstones, ribbons, string, etc., but I now find myself increasingly addicted to the CAS (clean and simple) style and it makes me happy when I feel like I "got it right."
I'm a lover of all things purple and you can find me at Purple Princess Diaries. I'd love to have you to stop by and leave me a comment sometime.

ReplyDeleteCongrats to both Leslie and Kathy for their beautiful NBUS cards! Nice job ladies!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Kathy, hope you have a blast while here! Congrats to Leslie, it's truly a beautiful card
ReplyDeleteLove the showcased card, so bright and pretty - it made me smile! Great to see Kathy as GDt with this fun card too.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to see Kathy K joining you Darnell. She's one of my favourite crafters and very talented. Sigh, also an enabler - pity my bank balance! I adore NBUS! It truly pushes me to use my NBUS stuff sooner than I would. Ask me again in 10 years ..... when I'm still ploughing through it all!

ReplyDeleteLovely to see Leslie's gorgeous spring gnome being showcased and how lovely to see Kathy popping up as guest designer this month too! Can't believe it's taken me until the last day of March to use something NBUS... it's not for lack of available schtuff I can assure you! Vicky x
