In keeping with that frame of mind, I decided to use this cute Sugar Nellie stamp that has sadly sat un-inked.
I used Mercy's Tuesday Sketch #46 for my layout. Here's the sketch:
And here's my card~ I was rather pleased with how it turned out.
supplies:
- card size: 5 1/2 x 5 1/2
- stamps: Basket Full of Happiness,
- paper: DCWV Whimsy stack, SU cardstock,
- ink: Memento Tuxedo Black,
- others: copics, Martha Stewart border punch, Prima flowers, Kaisercraft Blush pearls,

WOW!!! This is stunning, Danni!! I LOVE the combination of colors and your coloring is just gorgeous! And good for you for saying enough is enough! I will try and follow your lead! Beautiful card!! hugs!
This card is like a breath of fresh air..very summery like! I love it! Your colouring is awesome!
P.S. I am right there with you on using what you have. It does get extremely costly to buy everything you love! It is always fun to trade with others your images as well, that sure helps!

What a lovely card. I'm in the same boat as you...so here's to using our stuff!
What a sweet card! Keep us up to date on how you do with using your stash!! :-)
You've outdone yourself with this card, Danni. It is so beautiful. I love every little thing about it. It comes together just perfectly.
Hi Danni,
Don't we all do that, buy stuff and sit looking at it longingly but not using it!!!!
However, I have found doing challenges has helped me use up some things I have had for over 5 years unused.

well, maybe for 2 wks anyway - LOL.
hugs,
This is beautiful Danni! You're work has been super exceptional lately! Send some mojo my way! :)
Adorable! All of your new cards are so awesome!
So sweet! Love the colors! I'm the same way about getting a ton of stuff, and not using enough before I buy more. I even discovered I had gotten a ton of the same stickles not to long ago! Guess I really liked them!
well, Danni, I wish you much success with your 'no buy' plan....we all should do that for awhile and see how long we can survive....probably pretty long! lol
This card is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
I love the image, the colors, the papers and of course your coloring...just gorgeous!!!
Blessings, Maria

I have been trying to do this too.. Enough is enough.. I started in January and have done great and feel a sense of accomplishment.. This card is too sweet. She is so cute..TFS
I'm like you, Danni, I want to use my stuff without buying more but somehow you still want the new things that come out so it's hard. Love your card--it's really beautiful!
Awesome goal, Danni; I try to give myself a no-spend month occasionally to encourage the same thing. The way my supplies are stacking up, I can tell it's about that time again!
Adorable card and such a fun color combo, too!!
