Welcome to a New Year of Stashbusters! The purpose of this challenge is to use up items that have been in your stash for a long time. I will post a new layout every Monday to (hopefully) inspire you to dig out something old and get it on a page! If you don’t have one of the required elements, please don’t go out and buy it...the idea is to use up the old to make room for the new! Use a suitable replacement instead and have fun! Those who choose to participate and complete all the weekly challenges (for the current month), will go into the Stash Buster “Hall of Fame"
I’ve been scrapping since 1998 and I’ve collected quite a ‘stash’ of items. I’ve seen a lot of trends come and go, some good, some not so good! I’m not sure I have much left from then, but I did manage to collect a vast array of items that we can use today. I hope you can join us in digging through your collection of scrapping supplies and complete a layout (one or two page) using some of your older items.
This being the first challenge of the New Year, I thought a celebration page was appropriate!
Here’s my layout:
Graduation Party
The requirements for this weeks challenge are:
1. Frame: You can frame a picture, a journaling box or the entire page...I chose to frame the photo.
2, Eyelets: I have a bunch of shaped eyelets I tend to forget about. So I used a couple of star and balloon shaped ones on each page.
3. Die Cut or Punched items. I die cut the balloons and used a border punch for the white scallop top border. The title and diploma are also electronically cut.
Please use this keyword in your completed layout to the gallery so we can see the pages you create: Copy and paste the keyword:
STASH15JAN1 to make sure it gets to the right gallery.
