Use Something Old From Your Stash

Hello and thanks for stopping by to take a look.  A new challenge begins today at the Julia Spiri's challenge blog with the title Use Something Old From Your Stash.  That's an easy one for me as I have so much old stuff and keep buying new stuff.  The glitters, Blue, Green and various other colors are all 15 yrs old and older, at least they last a really long time without fading. 

For this card I'm using Forest Hairdresser by Julia Spiri from her Etsy store and what a beautiful selection of image you will find there.  She is coming up with more new one every 2 weeks.

She also has a Facebook Group where challenges are held as well and lots of inspiration to be found and shared around there.

I hope you'll come by joining in to share your creations with us, I enjoy visiting your blogs and I gain inspiration along the way.

Colored with Copics and finished with colored Pencils, Sentiment is also from my old stash.
