Today I am playing along with the fabulous Darnell's NBUS Challenge! She is such an amazing and creative card maker. Check out her blog at: dkardkreations! I am also playing along with the amazing team at The Heart Desires Challenge. I absolutely love the inspiration board!
I used a stamp and die set that I received today in the mail for my NBUS part of the challenge. I used the colors and the pumpkins in the inspiration photo.
This card is for my brother's birthday. We grew up on a farm, so I hope it makes him laugh!
Stamps: Craftin Desert Divas: Harvest Happiness
Dies: Craftin Desert Divas: Harvest Border Dies, Mama Elephant Stitched Sky
Paper: SU Early Expresso, Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid, Neenah Solar White
Copic Markers, Wink of Stella, Glossy Accents
SO happy you stopped by my blog today!!
HUGS!

I am playing along with the Color Throwdown and the 11th NBUS (Never-Before-Used-Schtuff) challenge sponsored by Darnell. I love the colors in this challenge. I am always a primary color fan. Darnell wants us to play with "schtuff" we have never used. The stamp set, train track and my new stencil brushes have been sitting on my table for weeks just waiting their turn to be used. By the way, Darnell, I had to make this card twice because I had a lot of boo-boos in the first one! LOL! The flowers are still leaning in this one.



My card is created on a white card base. I cut two Garden Green patches of grass using the Lawn Fawn Meadow Borders dies. I also cut one flower border die and then cut it in yellow and red to cut out the little flowers. On watercolor paper, I used a stencil brush to create the sun and the sky with distress inks. I cut two clouds from Mama Elephant sky dies and distressed them in blue ink. The little bunny is a sticker from Doodlebug Easter Express. I cut a train track using the railroad slider die and used a penny to create the sliding train. The little bunny can now slide up and down the track. No wonder he has that big smile on his face! The sentiment is heat embossed in white "Some Bunny loves you to pieces" is from Simon Says Stamp Some Bunny stamp set.
