Let's Celebrate

Good Morning,

One of things I would like to do this year with my card making is to enter challenges I never have done before.  I tend to get stuck in a rut of entering the same ones each week and I think it's time I broadened my horizons.

The challenge I have decided to enter today is the 'ShowCASe Your Style' challenge. I have seen lots of other card makers enter this challenge so I figured it was time to join in the fun.  The challenge this time round is a colour challenge and I just love the colours they have chosen.

Supplies Used:
Stampin Up - Making Spirits Bright
Uniko Studio - A Gift For You
Clearly Besotted - Diagonal Stripes
Clearly Besotted - A Little Sentimental
Papertrey Ink - Faux Ribbon
Wink of Stella

CASology Week 129 - NBUS

Good Afternoon 

We have a slightly different cue card for you this week at CASology, but it's a word I'm sure most of you will heard of before....NBUS!! As most of you will know this word was created by the fabulous and wonderful Darnell.  NBUS stands for 'Never Before Used Schtuff' and I'm sure we all have some of that hidden away in our stash.  Darnell now runs a challenge for NBUS and this week we are joining forces. 

My NBUS is a stamp set from Clearly Besotted, I'm not sure why I have never used the set before as it is super cute and adorable, but I have just never gotten round to it, until now!

Supplies Used:
Clearly Besotted - Tasty Treats (My NBUS items)
Avery Elle - The Sorbet Collection
Papertrey Ink - Faux Ribbon
Aquapainters
Nestabilities

I would also like to enter my card into the current 'Happy Little Stampers Challenge' which is a sketch challenge for this month.

And for more inspiration make sure you visit the Design Team and see their NBUS creations.
