Hi everyone! So thrilled to see that you are using your unloved stamps/stash and plan on catching up soon on commenting :-)
I have been creating but due to shoulder pain, have not been posting online...I have over 50 cards photographed and need to post. Most are using sketch challenges from SCS (I am trying to create a card for each one of the sketches, lol!).
Here are a few cards that I have uploaded recently that use some stamps that I have either never inked before (or recently) along with older designer papers, embellishments, etc. from my massive stash:
I am posting this one for an April birthday, though I am behind for January, February, and March. I have several cards that I need to blog and post to the SCS gallery as well! But, I do not have a bad shoulder to blame...just no motivation!
Here is a card for my youngest daughter's birthday, using a brand new stamp that I purchase last June (2019) and am just opening the cellophane to use one of its sentiment...Stampin' Up Seaside Notions. I was better, though, at using my very brand new Painted Poppy/ Poppy Moments stamps/ dies on this same card...but I digress as that doesn't fit the challenge!
Here is another card that should have been posted in January and uses a 2018 Holiday stamp that I finally broke out of the cellophane: Minty Softness @ Christmas...

Used up a bunch more stash today on scrapbook pages about my mom%u0025u2019s quilting. It was lovely and nostalgic to do something in her favourite colour palette. She loved autumn colors in her work and in her clothing, different than me.
I am taking on Online Card Class and pulled out the SU Lotus Blossom, released in 2015, and a Hero Arts set, Everyday Sayings. I have used the HA set for so many years and I have no idea when it was released. It is always a joy to pull out the older product and make something new with it.

Using items from my stash. I am really pleased with the background on this one. I used Delicata Silvery Shimmer ink with a very old background stamp. It muted the Real Red cardstock perfectly. I don’t use a lot of bling on my pages usually, but this was a special occasion....
Hi guys!! I was fairly proud of myself for all of the old stuff I used on here. This is my first time using these Granny glitter dots. So glad to find a way to use them. Used this old set and the Emerald Envy CS, which I kinda hate to use cuz it is one of our school colors, but... it was what worked. Made 3 of these cards.. Woohoo!

Even tho my paint brushes are fairly new, I hadn't opened the package yet. I really wanted a brush to do a watercolor wash with. So, I made one today! Yay! IC755 Aloha by mfb - at Splitcoaststampers
In today's lesson from Online Card Class, Spring Camp 2, I used a few items that have been in my stash for a long time.
First is vellum. I purchased this printed vellum over 10 years ago on a sidewalk sale clearance rack at Hobby Lobby. I was glad to pull it out and use it on this card.
This card is using scraps from my scrap bin for the weaving and a die from SU that was probably purchased three years ago, or close. This card was the perfect time to pull it out and use it.

I came across my Magic Mesh. I still have several pieces and several colors. Do you remember it? I think it looks really cool behind this flowered oval.
