Speaking of NEW, that's the theme for our January Challenge. For inspiration, I've used a newly purchased digital image from Whimsy Stamps. 

We have no sponsor this month but

say thanks to Whimsy for the $15 gift card!!

We will award it by random draw from eligible January entries on 02/03/25.

Here's my card:

Dawn got some new Altenew dies this week... so here's her NBUS card

More Fun!

 Just having more fun with Whimsy stamps here. 

I have used Whimsy Stamps for years and so I don't have many that I have never used.  However, I have not used many of the sentiments for some reason.  I think I've got most of those sentiments all in one card now. I have a list of supplies on my blog here. 

See my second card below. 
I am casing Linda's card from January 21st.  I had to make a fast card because I couldn't decide on what to make for my son, so I was on the hot seat of getting it done.  When I saw Linda's card, I had to case it.  No shaker for me as I needed to get it in the mail.
This may be the first time I've used the cake.  I had to include this card because this is the birthday card I sent my oldest son for his BDay.

Enjoy using your NBUS this month!

An Ostrich Birthday Comic

Hey Diva friends - Linda here with inspiration to use that new stuff languishing in your stash. My friend Darnell coined the term NBUS (Never-Before-Used Schtuff) and we're using that theme for our January Challenge. 

We have no sponsor this month but the wonderful Whimsy Stamps has donated a $15 gift voucher to their online store. We'll award it by random draw from eligible January entries. Thanks Whimsy!!

In honor of Whimsy, I've used some of their fabulous products - here's my card:

More Happy Christmas Cards

 

Frantic Stamper is Die Cut Divas' Sponsor for the December Challenge of Winter/Christmas project with an optional twist to make a shaped Winter/Christmas Card.

I have had so much fun playing this month and here I am with more cards.  I just love the way you can bring this die to life with the different backgrounds behind the die.  It can be a digital background, Designer paper or your own homemade background.  The green card is a digital cardstock, while I purchased the sunset Designer slimline Designer paper.  These were fast, and fun to put together.
