Muse #99 + NBUS #3 + SSS Anything Goes

Today was our first day back to the 6 AM alarm and it wasn't easy, but it was kind of nice to have a quiet, clean house and spend a little time in the office. The always fun Darnell is having another NBUS Challenge, and I have a great NBUS Simon Says Stamp confetti die, and there is still time to enter the SSS Wednesday Challenge Blog where Anything Goes, and the die looks very similar to the one Vicki used for her Muse #99 inspiration card, so this card was truly inspired by all three challenges.

I cut the die from a white panel, stamped the sentiment and then popped it up on the red card base.




It looked a little unfinished, so I started poking around my bits & pieces finding a mirrored star that fit in the center circle nicely. It still didn't look quite right until the red felt circle was place under it and a trio of rainstones scattered among the open circles.




You can find the challenge details and join in the fun by following these links.

I really hope the New Year has been off to a great start for you and thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie

    What a fun die - I love the 'randomness' of the little dots around the centre one! So glad you joined us at Muse this week!

    You got it! You nailed the MUSE card fersure!! You know the card was "speaking" to you, don't you, when you were rooting around for just the right embellie and the red circle and the rainstones, and then telling you JUST where to put the rainstones? I can just imagine the whole process and picture the card smiling just like I am when you put on that last rainstone! Yes, yes, since you asked, I am quite heavily medicated. Thank you so much, Jacquie, for entering this stunning card in my NBUS Challenge #3!! In case I don't get back here tomorrow, Happy Birthday!! Hugs, Darnell
