Its one of a few things possible. 
Your Auxiliary Air Regular could be stuck.

Remove it and use choke cleaner inside it to clean it out and free it up.
It might be bad and simply need replacing but a good cleaning never hurt
anything. 

The ignition timming could have changed. Either a slipped belt or a loose
distributor could be at fault.
 
You might just need to increase the idle speed. If the car ran fine
before, something changed it to make it stall out like it now does. I
wouldn't adjust the idle until the other things have been checked out
first. HTH!!
