LSC182 - Oldies But Goodies!
 
Yay! It's my turn to host the Limited Supply Challenge! Ready? I'm posting early because I'm up late!

You know you've got them -- old stamps that you just won't get rid of, but you don't use either. How long has it been - 2 months? 6 months? A year? Well, this week I want you to go get them out. :) And while you are digging, get out some old dp, and some cardstock in colors you don't normally use, too!

My challenge to you is simple: You have to make a card with a things you haven't used in awhile. I don't mean a week or two. I'm talking months. Years, even! The more things you use that you've been neglecting, the more bonus points you get, lol! So try not to bust out the Copics - go for your WWC, or your pencils, or something else that is gathering dust :wink:

Here are this week's guidelines, in a nutshell:

Stamps: anything unused (NOT new, it has to be a set you haven't inked up recently)
Paper: Something you've been hoarding
Ink: any
Embellies: Again, try for things you've been hoarding!

My Sample: Real Summer BBQ

Victoria's sample: Beets and Buttons

This sounds like a good challenge for me to take on tomorrow afternoon! After I return home from my first day of work!

lazylizard 08-21-2008 09:56 PM

It's way past my bedtime, and I thought I had pulled out some going gray paper because I never use it, but turns out it was blue buckaroo. Is it time for bed or what?? Here's my late night effort:

I stayed up to watch the Olympics, so I did a couple of cards for the challenge.

What a GREAT challenge, Taylor!! I am a terrible, terrible hoarder! :mrgreen:

My first one is an accordion card.

I dug out my rarely used chalks for this card---I have no idea why but I almost never use my chalks! They're so pretty too.

Thanks for the challenge, Taylor! :-D

Cook22 08-21-2008 11:49 PM

Happy jumps here - off for the weekend in about two hours and I didn't think I'd get to play, but that should give me time - and it sounds like fun, too.

Cook22 08-22-2008 12:47 AM

Just done!! Not leaving my craft room as tidy as I'd like, but I enjoyed this.

Great challenge! This should be something that keeps me from going on a shopping trip for something new.

Here is my ESPRESS YOURSELF.

bensarmom 08-22-2008 03:06 AM

Just went through some things in my stamp area, and there are lots to choose from. Can't wait to play this great challenge!

Miss Boo 08-22-2008 03:32 AM

Oh this is going to be fun. Since I've been unmounting stamps, I've been wanting to use the oldies again. However, I may have to use my Copics because I got rid of my pencils, WWC, and chalks. :p Thanks for such a fun challenge! :D

notimetostamp 08-22-2008 03:40 AM

Here's mine -- I used retired stamps, paper and ink, plus old ribbon and an old punch!!! Actually, I made this card BEFORE I read the challenge -- how PERFECT!!!

My son was injured in a bicycle accident last Friday and is undergoing his 4th surgery today (prayer please) - he will be in the recovery stages for up to a year and off work. This simple card is a mother's plea to her son!

Better Get Better

Thanks for looking and/or commenting.

MakiJ 08-22-2008 04:01 AM

This sounds fun!
I'm thinking to combine with Way To Use challenge since I missed yesterday.

Judyw 08-22-2008 04:04 AM

I used so many neglected supplies I cannot count them all! Loaded Truck

DawnL 08-22-2008 04:24 AM

thanks Taylor

cindy501 08-22-2008 04:57 AM

Oh, I like this challenge. I saw a cute card the other day that someone posted in the gallery using SU's A Little Love set. It reminded me that that was one of my first sets and it definitely has not seen ink in a very long time. I will try to challenge my self to use that along with some paper and embellishments I just had to have and are sitting in a drawer. Thanks for hosting and suggesting it.

Here is my oldie but goodie! TFL

Great challenge! I've been trying to use things I've been hoarding, anyway (the only New Year's resolution I've actually kept...), but I put a bunch all on this card:

Thanks for looking!

markie's mom 08-22-2008 05:13 AM

Hi....Great challenge! I don't enjoy making sympathy cards, but today, I had to....Our neighbor's dog lost his life during the storm last night....My neighbor is so very upset, as are Markie and I....

Here is today's submission.

cullenwr 08-22-2008 05:20 AM

This was an oldie but not so goodie...probably will be another 10 years if I ever do it again! :-( It sparkles like crazy IRL but the pic doesn't capture it.

star 08-22-2008 05:42 AM

I just finished a card last night that will work for this!! (just have to wait for the sun to come up a bit more to take a pic!!) Have another card I need to make...I'll have to see if I can do another one!!
What a GREAT challenge!!
