COLOR HUES #84 ~ PEACH & GREEN & NBUS

Hi Friends!
Today I am playing with Color Hues!
Peach and green are so very pretty together I love this combo!!
This is a Memory Box Embossing Folder (Marvelous Magnolia) and it came with three flower dies!
I made this purchase at our brick and mortar store within a 30 minute drive from my house. The store is called Cobblestone Creek Studios and is located in Damascus, Leslie is the owner and she is super nice and so helpful!
My BFF Linda (http://linscraftcorner-linda.blogspot.com/) and a special friend from California was in town so we took her to this store and boy did we have fun shopping and handling the merchandise!!
Linda, Darnell, and Me!
You all recognize Darnell, right?
She runs NBUS (Never- Before- Used- Schtuff 
and now I.D.E.A.S.
I.D.E.A.S. for 2024
Her I.D.E.A. is for us to use our supplies and get those cards made.

Darnell was in town visiting her sister who has been here for a couple of weeks and will stay a couple more, but they have relatives in Eugene they wanted to visit.  She so graciously asked if we could spend a day with her.  Of course we jumped at the chance to be with her!
Shopping was so fun we came away with a plethora of goodies and then we had lunch and was given a free piece of decadent chocolate cake, and from there we went to a chocolate candy store!
So fun and so wonderful to spend time with her! 

Back to the Color Hues!
I am happy to be able to play along again and happy to use some new goodies...oh now I can enter this in Darnell's NBUS Challenge #61 too!
So friends, thanks for stopping by and visiting, I pray you all have a lovely week!
 
 
Heart Hugs, friends!

  1. What fun to spend a day with crafty friends! And how I wish we had a crafting store like that near us--the nearest is over an hour away. Back to your lovely card! The soft colors and dimension create such a gorgeous card--and the thin layer of peach is wonderful addition. Thanks for sharing with us at Color Hues!

  4. Love, love, love these magnolias, Col, and I'm envious that you have a brick and mortar store nearby. I'm also envious that you got to spend a day with Darnell! What a fun time for you!

  5. You described our fun day perfectly, Col! It was a treat to spend time with you and Lin and visit a REAL stamp store for the first time in years! (It was close, but I was able to get my suitcase closed, lol!)

    Your card design is soft and lovely and a beautiful way to use the peach and green colors! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS and playing with my I.D.E.A.S.!📌 Hugs, Darnell
