I have used papers that were bought at least 2 years ago - I have taken them out of the drawer lots of times and just couldn't cut into them - just too gorgeous! They are 12x12 and were in a box of 'reduced' items, at a Craft Fair and there was only 5 sheets! My vintage lace is also something that I am always very reluctant to cut into, the flowers are cut from a lace collar given to me by an old lady friend many years ago. My Rubber Stampeed image 'Woman in Repose' is one that I had covered for many years - I was lucky last year to see it for sale on EBay! So.... ALL very covereted!
So go on girls - join us in our challenge and let us know what is your 'Most Coverted'
I am entering this in:
Fab & Funky - Add a sentiment

Whatever you're doing - enjoy!

I think so many us are the same Avril and hate using some of our stash, I know I often gets something out, stroke it then put it away for another day.
ReplyDeleteThe image you have used is one I really like, although not seen mine in a while, but if it helps any I think you have made a gorgeous card with your coverted goodies.

These papers are stunning and were made for this lady! I can see why you would not want to use the paper! The lace really adds a delicate feel! Beautiful card! Maybe you should try to photo copy the paper? Oh thank you so much for sharing by blog candy, really appreciate that! Hugs!
