Hello, hello! Happy December 1st! December!!! How did we get here so quickly? The new month means it's time for a new Lisa and Lori's Great Stash Bash kit challenge.
If you don't know what this challenge is all about, here's how it 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 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 November recipe:
To create your kit, pull 10 papers, 3-4 embellishments, 5-7 scrap papers, and the focus item for December - 12x12 sticker sheets.
This is always a busy time of year - Thanksgiving, my granddaughter's birthday, and Christmas - so that means I went the quick and easy route and pulled another collection kit to work from this month.
Here is my kit:
This month, I will be using Simple Stories' Mix and A Mingle collection kit.
Here is a look at the papers:
And since there is a good chance I will use both sides of any given paper, here is a look at the back sides:
A few of the papers I had immediate ideas on what I wanted to do with them. I just hope I can get them to work the way I want!
Here are the embellishments:
I pulled the tag cut-aparts, the journaling cut-aparts, the 12x12 stickers sheet, the sticker book, the embellishment, and the journal boxes packs, chipboard stars from Studio Calico, a sticker sheet, puffy stickers, and die-cuts from an old Pink Fresh Studios collection that matched really well.
Even though our focus is on 12x12 sticker sheets, I just pulled the one from the collection. If I could get it mostly used up, I would be ecstatic!
In my quick search of scraps, I did find a few that will match:
Why are reds, pinks, and greens so hard to match the right shade?!
I kept it easy this month. Since we are in full-on December mode, I had to keep it Christmasy!
Be sure to head over to Lisa's blog - My Creative Endeavors - to see the beautiful kit she has put together. Remember, this is a just-for-fun challenge, but if you do play along and put together your own stash bash kit, add it to the linky below, and we will be sure to check it out and cheer you on!
Here are the rules: 1. Follow the challenge prompt to create a kit to work with throughout the month. You may use other items, but please concentrate on using your kit, and link it below. 2. Create new, not previously posted projects using your stash kit. 3. If you have a blog, please include the challenge graphic and a link to our challenge in your posts. 4.
