Inkspirational #359 and NBUS #82

My friend and JUGS teammate Carol must have a thing for blue.  She picked blue and white for Color Hues, another team she's on, and now it's shades of blue for Inkspirational.  It's too late to use the card I made for Color Hues so I had to come up with something different.  

I remembered a stencil I got during a Spellbinders sale and decided to make my card look similar to Inkspirational's label.  Once the panel was stenciled with Altenew inks, I had to decide what to do with it to make it 'special'.  I saw Gina K do an eclipse card the other day and thought that would work great. I'm not sure who the 'Happy' belongs to, it was loose in my box of birthday word dies.  I layered it up 6 times, added a border of the last piece of a blue cardstock and a Hero Arts sub-sentiment.

This is the first time using the stencil so I'm sending it to Darnell's NBUS.  

Thanks for dropping by and spending a little bit of your day with me.

You nailed that inspiration photo, Bobby! I'm in love with this; it could stand on my kitchen counter and go perfectly with my blue and white plates lining the cabinets! I did have that die, but I must have given it away, sorry. Too bad I never used that software that logs in all your schtuff.🙄 Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Happy New Year! Hugs, Darnell

Great job with that stencil Bobby. It looks just like the Inspirational prompt and the Eclipse technique is perfect.
