Mine never runs low because I rarely use the "generic" ones I made and have lying around. Whenever it is someone's birthday/get well/sympathy* I make a fresh card with them in mind. Now, I don't always do that as sometimes those occasions sneak up on you so I have to quick like a bunny get a card from the stash, but usually I make a new card.
This is a fresh card I made with the idea of putting it into my stash and then using my stash. Then I realized it was so-and-so's birthday next weekend, so out in the mail it went. One of these days I'll use that stash. Just you wait and see!
* You'll notice I don't have an anniversary stash. That's because that's between you and your honey.
The Fine Print: Products by Stampin' Up "Vertical Greetings" and Fruity Fresh paper (I could be wrong on that name as it came from a friend). I just mailed out a big box of cards to lessen the stash but never fear, there are still cards in there for me to use or ignore as I see fit.

I like this one with the cute topiary and vertical sentiment! Sure to be welcomed by any recipient!
I always made cards for someone's birthday or some occasion.
I have stash of cards that I made but dont know what with them.
I even post on fb page that I will give them for hospital or some other organization but nobody want them.
your card is very nice.
lots of hugs!
I keep wondering if I NEED this SU set . . . and now look what you've gone and done . . . made a BEAUTIFUL card with it. Most definitely one of the best of seen made with that lovely topiary tree. Will have to pin it now for future reference!

I too make for the occasion but also have a stash, which comes in very useful when busy or mojo less. I got this set because I needed / wanted for ages some vertical greetings, and haven't used it yet, but you have inspired with your neat card. Xxx
Princess J that is one pretty card - love it!! I too make cards for the occasion - about the only ones I have 'on hand' are sympathy ones... and I often will make one that I think 'fits' better.

I like your thinking. Like the design and colours of this card too. Hugs Mrs A.
Oh hun, you have just described my life - most of my stash has been created by DT cards and just-for-the-hell-of-it cards, and of course the ones that I will NEVER ever send to anyone, but it does mean we have rather a surplus ...... sigh - and I still miss peeps special days because I am old and decrepit now and need regular kicks up the butt. Love your stylish and classy card. Could do with some of those in the stash .... Huggles, Squirrel & The Very Bad Cat xxx
Love the tropical colors & fruit designs behind this pretty topiary. And LOVE that vertical sentiment. I need to add some verticals to my stash. This is one cool design. TFS
Lucky recipient of this card--so beautiful! Glad it isn't lying around in the stash--haha!
Oh so pretty - love those peachy blossoms in the background panel. As you know, I have no card stash at all (still baffled as to why I find cards so difficult to do - they just won't happen), but I agree about the anniversary thing - nobody's business but the anniversarees, surely!

This is too pretty to sit in the stash! Good that you had a good use for it!
