NBUS


NBUS. 
Never before Used Schtuff. 
Boy do I fall into this category. 





I'll start with the schtuff I have had for a while and never used. That Mirrored sheet from Tim Holtz idea-ology. I don't know how long I have had it, but the dust blew off kinda easy. The sentiment and framed glasses are from Taylered expressions, there was no dust on those items because they were under other schtuff. I found all this recently because I have been purging and organizing. Great feeling but it really shows you how much you think you want things and get inspired and then "SQUIRREL" Oh what is that shiny thing... I think I want that.. Oh who just came out with a new release?? ... gotta check that out.




Stuff I had and do use is Adirondack ink. Love this stuff I inked it on velum paper and then die cut the glasses out of it. I then die cut the glasses out of the mirrored paper. I adhered the velum frame on top of the mirrored glasses so the lens would be mirror. I mounted the glasses on white card stock  then on top of glossy paper that I used the same inking technique I used on the glass frames. I stamped my sentiment, which I started singing that old song "my eyes adored you" by Frankie Valli   here is a link for your enjoyment just to get it in your head too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQjOT7PTzK4 
 I thought I would make this card for my adoring hubby. Valentines Day is coming up!

    First, I have to tell you that I love what you wrote about JOY on your profile page! So, so true. I always say, just live by the Golden Rule, but I lot of people don't know what that is anymore, so I really like the J.O.Y. way of saying it!

    Your card is simply adorable! I am sure those glasses are really fantastic in real life and your hubby is going to love it!! Thank you so much for linking with both CASology and my NBUS Challenge #3! It's a pleasure to meet you and become your newest follower!
