NBUS (New but unused schtuff)

 I first came across the NBUS challenge is through my friend Char, oh yes, we all have those stacking up in one corner, or two, or many corners in our craft room, so I rush to my craft room and look around.....


after staring at the stack for a while, I decided to use the PTI with the new MFT cardstock paper, the PTI die probably is more than a year old and the MFT pink paper are pretty new

I only found out that the pack actually have 2 dies when I open it, bonus! LOL!


here it is..... (I forgot to take picture of the sentiment I stamped underneath the zipper, is that what you call it?)



the scribble dies gotta to be new favorite


I know the NBUS challenge #1 is Anything Goes, with "Friendship theme", this is going to a friend who just got a new grand baby, I intend to make a mini album later to go with this.


now why don't you hop over to Darnell's blog and join in the celebration, she just hit 500 followers, that sure is one good reason to celebrate, congrats Darnell!

Hello my friend. I have been MIA once again. I am at the library trying to see what everyone is up to because our internet all of a sudden stopped working.. So I couldn't stay away to long. Your card here looks so pretty. I LOVE that die. It sure does make some pretty flowers.

Hope all is well.

Hugs~
