Love To Garden

I had great fun putting this card together using NBUS

what did you say?

What is NBUS....well I'll give you a lesson....

Over on Darnell's blog, she has created this word "NBUS"

and I  LOVE it...oh wait , you need to know what it means

 "Never Before Used Stuff"

I bet you have plenty of that don't you...come on, tell the truth!!

Isn't that a great word, I wonder if it will make it in the dictionary??
 

 

So, back to my card, I used NBUS!!

I won the "bling" stamp set (the word love) at least 4 years ago from Gina K, I think

the idea is to put "bling" in all those little circles...now that would be a lot of bling!

I liked it just like it is, plus it fit my challenge better

My other NBUS is the recently purchased Stampendous Seeds Background stamp

I love this stamp, and am so glad I got to put it to use!

And lets not leave out the Lockhart apron stamp....

I had ordered an apron stamp from somewhere and this one was sent to me by mistake...

When I contacted them, they told me to keep the "mistake" and sent me the one I ordered..

So very nice, but this was several years ago as well...NBUS again!! 

 

Now that , that is out of the way...lol...it brings us to the challenge I am entering...

I subscribe to Papercrafters Corner and have for quite sometime...

Every Monday they have a MAGAZINE MONDAY  challenge

 using a magazine cover for inspiration....

Here is this weeks cover.....

 

 

Isn't it cute??

I focused on the colors, the polka dots, and the word "love"...

If you notice Minnie's shoes, they are yellow, so I brought a splash of yellow in

with the towel hanging from the apron....

you can't tell in the photo but, the towel was stamped on a NBUS yellow velour paper....

And last, usually Minnie is wearing a bow on her head, so I added the red satin bow....

That's it .......so......head on over and give it a try!!
