Stampin' Up BIGZ Lattice die
I was going through my craft room yesterday, trying to do some organizing and I was looking at all my NBUS supplies. I found way too many unloved things. My eyes went right to my Stampin' Up Lattice die, which I think I have only used one time, so I thought it was time to try a card with it again. Near by was my Stampin' Up Vine Street embossing folder which I received as a Christmas present this year and it had NOT been used yet. I also used my Spellbinder dies for the white lace trim. It was purchased using my gift certificate that I won in Darnell's first NBUS Challenge. If you don't know who Darnell is...You need to click on the NBUS logo on my side bar to see her terrific blog. (as usual, I forgot to look up the link to insert here before I started my post...smile)
The spellbinder die that I used is Scalloped borders two.
This card will be going to a lady who was a friend of my Mother and lived at the 55 and older community that my Mother lived in. She sent me a Christmas card that I received this past Saturday. (Now I don't feel so bad that my Christmas cards went out late... smile). It was so nice of her to think of us even with a late card. She absolutely made our day with her card and note because she had moved and we didn't have her address to get in touch with her...so now we do.

Very pretty card with that die! Several years ago Heidi sent me that same die, but it never arrived here and she didn't have tracking to trace it :( I hope whoever got that package enjoyed it because it makes some great cards!
ReplyDeleteYour so clever. Great card gal. Hugs. Deloris
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely card Jill - and isn't always great to hear from folks who have moved and you think you have lost touch with!

ReplyDeleteA gorgeous card, Jill. I can only imagine what dies and stamps I haven't used....and just had to have them. I'm sure your mom's friend will love hearing from you and receiving this wonderful card.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind shoutout, Jill! I'm so pleased to see you paying attention to, and using, your NBUS products! Your card is so very pretty!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteLove how this turned out! Realize I've neglected my lattice die - you have inspired me to 1) find it and 2) use it! :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks gorgeous. Love he big dies. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteAnother Super Duper card. You're one up on me, with this SU die. Don't think mine has been out of the package. And I see so many beautiful makes with it. Each time I say "Oh I must...", and then I don't! Good for you on cleaning off the dust and making a beautifully designed card with pretty colors. TFS
