For the second week of the month we will be focusing on using your stash - you know - all that stuff we seem to buy but not actually use?? So this weekend's challenge is to use chipboard letters, or if you don't have any, chipboard shapes. I seem to have an endless amount of chipboard that has found its way into my home but not my layouts. I personally blame Marshall's - they are the ones who got in all those DCWV sets for ridiculously low prices! and now for the project:
My inspiration actutally came from the sparkly chipboard shapes, which are DCWV All Dressed Up. I knew they would go perfect with these pics of my daughter modeling last year's easter outfit. The paper is from the DCWV All About Girls stack, except the photo mats which are from the Shimmer stack. The title letters are K and Company Amy Butler Lotus Faded China Alphabet. I also dressed it up with adhesive pearls from Say It With Pearls. Here's a closeup - I love the sparkly shoes!
I am proud to say that all of the supplies were from my stash and had been sitting around waiting to be used! Now I just have to get off my butt and finish the journaling - which I somehow always procrastinate. The projects that you all have been linking have been fabulous - and I love visiting your blogs. A reminder though - you don't need a blog to participate - you can upload from your computer or link it to a message board. Caroline will have another stash challenge on Sunday, but I can't wait to see what you make with this one! Happy crafting!
