I'm hosting the CAS challenge this week and I challenge you to finally use some of the stuff you've been hoarding. You know, the fabulous stuff that you just don't want to use up because you'll miss it when it's gone. My card is full of hoarded stuff. For one, I always hoard the fun images that people send to me. Don't ask me why. These flowers were sent to me by my partner in Australia in a Kit and Clowder card swap.
Secondly, I have this Spellbinders gold foil paper that came in a card kit that is way too nice to use--what, like I can't buy more? What is wrong with me? Speaking of hoarding paper, I hate to use my PTI colored cardstock, just in case I really really find that I need that particular color for something else. And lastly, but I've gotten much better about this is I'm very afraid to use up my Stickles as though Stickles are just irreplaceable. LOL! I hope you'll join us and have fun bringing your goodies out into the world!

Oh Jen! I so enjoy reading your descriptions! I can so relate because I certainly have things (especially paper) that I hate to use! But why have them though right? LOL! I love your card and I may have to get some of that gold paper.

Beautiful image colord so well. I love this image. Loved your description of how you are really no different than the rest of us! Like why have it if it's just tucked away somewhere where no one can enjoy it. I hope to overcome this hoarding of supplies.

Striking floral bouquet with the protea front and center, Jen. Your coloring is so lovely. Some things are able to be replenished....and others aren't. Once they are gone, they are gone.
