Three cards, three wise men ...

Good afternoon! I'm just back from work and decided to share these cards with you before sorting out dinner!  

Three cards - one layout, two paper pieced and one just a die cut!





I love the challenge of paper piecing but it does take time ... especially when some of the pieces are so tiny!  The die is by Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions and it is part of her Festive Collection - Three Wise Men.

I've been short of inspiration recently but I'm delighted that my mojo seems to be returning (with mixed success) and was desperate to create a card that I could enter into the wonderful Darnell's NBUS challenge.  If you haven't yet met Darnell you really must visit her blog I know you will not be disappointed.  Not only does Darnell create some beautiful cards her blog posts are always eloquent and entertaining!


Enjoy!

  2. Thank you for the lovely shoutout, Elaine! No one has ever called my posts eloquent before, but I'm allowing that you might have had a pre-dinner cocktail when you were typing that, haha! Seriously, you're too kind! I so appreciate that you whipped your mojo into gear to make these three fantastic cards and that you played in my NBUS Challenge #12! I love all three! I think that's a pretty special die when it can both stand on its own and look smashing paper-pieced!! Now on my wish list! Hugs, Darnell
