SPECIAL CARD FOR A SPECIAL LADY

I bet you all know DARNELL,  right?
She now has 500 followers!!  WOW, I can see why, she is so talented and so gifted with the pen..
OH!  I mean the keyboard.
Seriously that girl can put a giggle in you any time of the day, go check her out
and if you are not already a follower, then join her blog...you will NOT be disappointed!
She has a few rules to follow and the most important one is it has to be NBUS!!
She made up that acronym!!
 
It stands for: never-before-used-schtuff!!
So Yes, my sweet little Lawn Fawn set Year Four has been sitting in my basket for months, so it qualifies for this challenge!
I pulled out a few other stamp sets too, PTI:  Little Bitty Birdie for the sentiment; Garden Variety for the grass, Paper Smooches for the pole the bird is sitting on; Back Pocket Basics for the sun, and Up, Up and Away for the cloud! 
Six stamp sets to make this one little bitty card for Darnell!
I colored with copics.
CONGRATULATIONS, Darnell,
I have a feeling you will be hosting another challenge in the very near future!!

Aw, gee, I didn't even know I could blush this red! Thank you so much for all those head-swelling compliments, Colleen, and for playing in my NBUS challenge! I love that you not only used that adorable NBUS, and applied the friendship theme, but you used all those different companies, too! This card makes me really happy!! Hugs, Darnell

What a great card. I love the happy sun. I think our sun gives us the evil eye (103 today) and isn't happy at all. I love Lawn Fawn. I don't buy many of them though because they'd all end up NBUS.... which is complete silly. I got to get over myself!
