Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash November Kit Challenge

Hello, hello! Happy November 1st! I cannot believe that this year is almost over! It always seems like once Halloween is over the rest of the year just flies by. 

It's time for a new kit for Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash Challenge! October was so busy for me, but I did get two layouts made with my October kit. I will keep it together for a while longer before I put it back into my stash. Hopefully, I will get a few more projects done this month.

Here's how this challenge works - On the 1st of each month, we will post a challenge prompt and the stash kit we have created using that prompt. During the month we will try to use as much of our stash kit as possible on different projects.  This year we have added a bashket challenge to our kit challenge. Every month we pick 10 items that we want to get used up this year in a basket. We try to use as many of those items as we can during the month. If we don't use them all then those items stay in the basket and at the beginning of the next month, 10 more items are added. The object of the challenge is to try to keep your basket from overflowing.

This will be a just-for-fun challenge so there is no monthly prize - but isn't the real prize using up our stash?  We hope you will join us in our quest to bash our stash! If you play along - link up on either my blog or Lisa's blog (or both if you choose) so that we can see who is joining us each month. 

Here is the "recipe" for November:

To create your kit, pull 10 papers, 3-4 embellishments, 5-7 scrap papers, and our focus item for November, which is 12x12 sticker sheets. Remember to pick your 10 items for your bashket!

I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to include in my kit this month. I'm kind of ready to start thinking about Christmas scrapping with all the talk of December Daily going strong right now, but I decided to wait on that until next month. 

For November I am going with two mini-kits - the first one being a more everyday sort of kit, and the second being a fall-themed kit. 

Here's a look at the first kit:

Miss Ada recently got a new bike, and even though I pulled a summer collection, I think the colors are going to be perfect for the photos of her with her new bike. Here's a look at the papers:

I love the bright colors in this first mini-kit and I know it will be easy to use whatever is left over after Ada's bike layout is made. 

For the embellishments, I pulled the 12x12 sticker sheet (our focus item this month), some enamel dots, and wood veneer. I also have a few items in my bashket that I can pull to use with this kit.

Here is my second mini-kit for November:

This mini-kit is full of Echo Park's Fall Fever collection. I bought all of this collection last year and I think I've made one layout with it. it is time to get a little more of it used up!

Here's a look at the papers:

This is the side of the papers that I plan on using, but I may use the other side, as well.

Here are the embellishments:

I have included the 12x12 sticker sheet, the sticker book, a few die-cuts, and some wood veneer leaves. 

I also had some scraps from this collection that I included:

Here's hoping I can get a few fall photos scrapped this month!

Here are the ten items I have pulled for my bashket:

1 - woodgrain chipboard Thickers

2 - enamel word stickers

3 - Dear Lizzy Lovely Day washi tape book

4 - puffy stickers

5 - My Minds Eye chipboard stickers

6 - random die-cuts that I am sure are from an old kit that never got put back in my stash

7 - more chipboard stickers that I have no idea where they are from

8 - more enamel word stickers

9 - gold puffy hearts

10 - old Scenic Route label stickers - only 3 or 4 are left on the sheet
