Hi Everyone! This card uses Bloomin' Love (only 2nd time I ever inked this set) along with the Detailed Floral Thinlits (love these thinlits but rarely use them)...
Hi Everyone! Love all of your cards and so thrilled our older stamps are getting some "love" :-)
This card uses four different Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps and I have owned the Butterfly Flourish for a while and have never inked it up yet...too many stamps and too little time-lol!!
Sharon, you are not alone and I agree with Angie- at least you are using them :-)
Here is a card I designed with a brand new stamp set from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps (will be released later today) along with neglected, long ago designer paper and ribbon from SU!
Is it too late to join? I'd like to just pull a stamp set and create without pressure or deadlines (like every week).
I've been spending a lot of time cataloging and purging, and I'm only keeping sets that make me immediately want to create something. But I'm too busy organizing to actually create anything. I need to find a better balance.

Yay! My first self-challenge will be to use the Inkandinkado Cookies of Life set, which I have owned for several years and never used.

I had the most difficult time finding out what the name was, because it is a single stamp and I had it in with others. I tried His name is Wonderful, a bunch of the words, and tried Prince of Peace last, because that is last in the words. LOL I couldn't find it in my gallery. I think maybe I have used in cards and not on the outside, maybe.
Happy Valentine's Day! Here is a birthday card using neglected Papillon Potpourri (my fav butterfly stamp from this set) along with brand new SAB Sets, Delicate Details and Avant-Garden.
Whee! Here is a LO I did using a new die (momenta-"explore") , a new technique (Faux Tin tile), and first time in years to use Secret Garden Framelits!!
One of my big goals for this year was to ink up my House Mouse Stamps... I've inked up a bunch that haven't seen ink in awhile, now I need to share the love with some of my other stamps!
When I was looking for my Delight in Life stamp yesterday, I found another neglected stamp with a matchimg punch! I plan on using that is week. Something Spring, it is downstairs and I can't remember the name. I just remember years ago, buying it on EBay I wanted it so bad. I used it maybe once!! Oh, I haven't even uploaded the other yet because SCS wasn't letting me. I will upload later.
Enjoying your House Mouse cards, Misti! I will be disappointed when you quit using them! LOL

Thanks! I have been collecting them for 15+ years, so it will take me awhile to get through all of them. And then Stampendous is releasing new ones... ;) :mrgreen:
Thanks Julie for bringing your awesome "use it" challenge back again this year. (I was hoping you would!) I've been distracted by new Occasions and SAB supplies lately, but I would like to shift my focus back to using older stamps and supplies again to stretch my stash. I'll try and pop back in with a project to share in the near future!
Cheers!
Cindy

Hi guys,
This week's Merry Monday challenge was calling for a lamp post. I found one in a stamp that's been sitting in my stash for a while... uninked. :oops: I paired it with some retired Christmas DSP and some old felt elements. I'm back on track for using my stash!
