crawl out from its hiding place. ~Zora Neale Hurston
oh, oh, oh ♥ it! What a quote!
ETA: I hadn't taken pics of my Webster's Valentine tin until there was enough light :)
Webster's Valentine Tin
I created this using the Hello Beautiful line of Webster's Pages, Melissa Frances, Basic Grey Rub, Making Memories pin, Autumn Leaves button, K & Co. bling & Oscraps Hopes & Dreams Digi elements

(shown open)
And, I have some cards to share with you today. First is my card for the sketch over @ 2Sketches4You this week. And then, some cards to share using "my stash". I explained in THIS post that I had made a resolution with myself to use up "stash" each time I create a new item. (this is a subject I read about a lot, i think it's one that's always at the top of our "to-do" lists, it allows us guilt-free shopping later....giggle & the space to store it) So, today I want to share my efforts to continue to do so. If you are using your stash, I'd LOVE to be inspired by you! Post me a message, I'd love to visit ♥
live life to the fullest card
i created this one using the Making Memories Chloe's Closet line, Martha Stewart punch, Melissa Frances Trim & Kaiser Bling
(the edge of the sketch hangs over the card, in order to be able to mail my card, I decided to cut some off of the front layer & let it hang over the front flap)

And then my "stash cards"
I created these use the Basic Grey Infuse line, Scenic Route Stickers & Chipboard, cardboard that came in some of my orders along the way, Martha Stewart punch, Cuttlebug Embossing Folders, Colorbok Epoxy Chipboard, Making Memories Chloe's Closet letters & pins, Ribbons & Hemp from supply. I find I enjoy creating with stash if I can incorporate new embellies to incorporate with an older paper line or vice versa, what works for you? What do you like to do with your stash papers or embellies?

Congrats on making the fab 5. Your card is beautiful. All the other cards are great too. I made a resolution to finish my stash too this year. I organized all my CS scraps by color this weekend, sure makes live easier. Like your new banner.

Lots and lots and lots of GORGEOUS creations here! I love how you used the swiss dots embossing folder so often...it adds so much! I always forget about my cuttlebug when I am creating...I will have to work on that!
Have a great day,
