Less Is More #491 and NBUS #54

Time is running out for Less Is More so I need to get my card posted.  


This sweet little flower is from PinkFresh Studio's Beautiful Blooms stamp, die and stencil.  There are six florals in all with a die to cut three at a time.  I bought the set because I thought they would make a great set of notecards to give as a gift.  This one has a sentiment from Altenew.

I need to tell you a sad story that has a happy ending.  I pre-ordered the Waffle Flower Grip Mat along with this set from DoodlebugsWA and was so excited when the date for delivery was here.  When my husband handed me the package that had been hand delivered by the mail carrier, I discovered that someone had stolen the entire contents.  Fortunately Cathy at Doodlebugs insures her packages so I was able to file a claim with the Post Office and get my money back.  Of course by that time Grip Mats were out of stock again.  I did find one at Honey Bee so ordered it from there (along with a few other things).  I did end up reordering the PFS set from Cathy.  This card is the first time I've used either and I love them both.  

Since this is the maiden voyage for these products, I will be sending my card to Darnell's NBUS

Thanks for dropping by.  I love it when you do.

Bobby, I can't believe that happened! Who would do such a thing? I know that Cathy really does a great job of sealing her packages, uses inner wrapping, and often packages within packages!
Sounds like everything turned out except you had to wait - not always easy!
Your maiden voyage is a wonderful one. So, this is a very pretty happy ending - it should be a celebratory card!

Oh good grief, I wonder if they even wanted what they took from the package or even knew what it was they were stealing. So happy you got it resolved and finally got to ink up this set. Love your CAS card, Bobby!

Very sweet card for a hard occasion but you've done well. Sorry to hear about your theft, but happy that DoodlebugsWA was so sweet to assist you! It's a shame what some people will do these days
