You all know the delightful DARNELL, right?
Well, that gal can spin a story like no one else...can you believe she has a family of "hammies' living in her Playhouse...it is totally true and they give her great advice (most of the time!). She is not only a master story teller but a terrific card maker, friend and wonderful human being! So now she is hosting her 6th NBUS Challenge to try to encourage all of us to use our Never- Before- Used- Schtuff!!
This is a new set from PTI, Spring Birds...I do love me some birds! I have the Winter Birds and LOVE the cardinal...now I couldn't resist a sweet little robin sitting on a flowering cherry tree. And since Spring is in the Air, it can totally be an Easter card too!!
To play along you can go HERE to Darnell's blog and join in the fun!
Expect to stay awhile and enjoy the camaraderie while she takes you through her cards and her stories...
Have a wonderful weekend friends!
I have my BBF, Linda coming down this Sunday to stay a week and play with me!
And we are excited to meet a fellow blogger, Greta on Tuesday down in the Woodburn area by the Outlet Malls. Nothing could be more fun than actually coming face to face with all you wonderfully creative ladies we meet in blogland!
Heart Hugs!

Wow, such a lovely spring card. Love the colours too!
How beautiful, Colleen! I guess great minds really DO think alike! ;0) I love the colors you used on your sweet robin. I'm a bird person too! I feed them and the squirrels and the chipmunks and whoever else decides to show up at the "bird table". Love your beautiful card and can't wait to see more cards being made with this sweet set!
Have a great weekend my friend!

Colleen, your spring card is gorgeous! And do I see from comments above you're celebrating a birthday? Happy Day to you! Enjoy your time with friends. Hugs!!!
Ah, Colleen, thank you for that wonderful introduction! You're too kind! And, goodness, I am in love with your pretty little robin! We don't get that many here and the ones that are around seem to have ill-defined seasons, but I so remember my Iowa childhood and how thrilling it was when we started seeing robins in the yard. It was always the one tried and true harbinger of spring!! Thank you for the memories of that and thank you so much for playing in my NBUS Challenge #6!! Hugs, Darnell (The Hammettes say hi!)
Your gorgeous card caught my attention in the NBUS gallery so I had to pop over and read more. I have the same set (collecting a month's worth of dust) and you have inspired me to break it out!
