NBUS #6


Just a very quick post here, as I have a few things I have to take care of.  This card is for the lovely Darnell Knauss NBUS #6 challenge.  

http://www.djkardkreations.com/2016/03/nbus-6-challenge-day-five.html

 For those of you who are new to blogging, Darnell is the sweet lady who coined the acronym NBUS which stands for Never Before Used Schtuff and refers to supplies you have not yet used.

Mine is the Clearly Besotted, Simply Quilled stamp set.




I used one of the Hero Arts Ombre ink pads to do the stamping.

Thank you so much for your visit and have a lovely Sunday, whatever you are doing!  Hazel xx

  7. Just saw this earlier on FB & Liked it! Until I had a chance to read your post, I thought you had done some quilling, cause it surely looks like quilling results. This is just stunning, and don't you just love those Ombre ink pads? Well done, and a great NBUS too. Hoping I can find time to play before Darnell closes the challenge. Happy Sunday and TFS. Hugs

  15. Wow, at first glance this looks like real quilling and I was thinking that you had gotten into it. So happy to see that it is a stamp instead. lol I just could take you being super creative at yet another hobby! lol, lol Not really, I would have cheered you on my friend had you gotten into quilling. Love how this simple, but gorgeous card turned out. Hugs, Brenda
