JAI #82 : JUST ADD SOMETHING FROM YOUR STASH!

This week's challenge at Just Add Ink is to use something from your stash of papercrafting supplies, that has sat unloved for some time.

I've managed to incorporate several "why did I even buy those?" items on my card.  In all honesty, I do know why I bought them ..... I have a compulsion to buy just about everything in the Stampin' Up! catalogue.  I have bought, but neglected:
  • Cottage Garden stamp set
  • Heard From the Heart stamp set
  • Sunny Garden Designer Series Paper
  • Paper Daisies
  • Daffodil Delight taffeta ribbon

...... and, here they are, all sitting harmoniously together on a card:



Stamps: Cottage Garden, Heard From the Heart
Card: Poppy Parade, Whisper White
DSP: Sunny Garden Designer Series Paper
Ink: Poppy Parade stampin' pad
Other: Stamp-a-ma-jig, Daffodil Delight taffeta ribbon, Brights brads, mini glue dots

    Great card, maybe you should use the "neglected" things together more often, really works well....

    I'm with you on Cottage garden, but it really is a lovely set of stamps and you have done a beautiful job combining all those much "NEEDED" products.

    Hi Christine, I love everything about this card. The first thing that caught my eye was the gorgeous colour combo - That daffodil ribbon goes so well with the background. Everything works so well together. Very pretty!

    It does look harmonious Christine :) Great job of using some unloved products - you'd never guess they were unloved given how lovely this looks.

    Awesome card Christine. Only you can make the "unloved" look so "loved". Cheers Donna Zammit :)

    So you've come up with a card with a whole lot of 'stuff' you've neglected, yet together they all look terrific. Is that telling you something? Perhaps you need to use these items a little more often - hee hee. Love your card.

    THIS is why you bought them Christine! What a stunning card - and all the elements go together so beautifully. Love the added paper daisies too. Vx
