50% off sale and old stash challenge

Ideas on creating stunning projects without overspending!! But sometimes a Full on Blitz is called for.

50% off sale and old stash challenge

Postby scrapdizzy » Wed Mar 25, 2009 4:23 pm

I promised you all a challenge; but due to being under the weather with a chest infection my scrapping has been neglected! So I have decided to put up the challenge and I will post my inspiration at a later date!!


I have noticed that I buy papers I like the look of but never seem to buy more than one from the same range??!! This was definitely the case in the 50% sale!!


So.....The challenge is.......

Use at least one piece of paper from the 50% sale and anything else from your old stash!!
The papers you use cannot be from the same paper range but can be from the same manufacturer.
I would love to see some old embellies, stickers, ribbon etc....

Just make sure there is no recent release on your L.O.

I will put all entries into a draw on the 17th April. I will make a folder in the gallery for this too.

LOL

Well my problem is I didn't actually buy that much paper in the sale - darn it all ...

Back to the drawing board for me ... so this could be a work in progress ...
Every day is a challenge and some days are more challenging than others. Enjoy the challenge!

Michelle, and everyone else..... I am sure you could find some very old stuff.... remember the stuff that you thought was so beautiful when you first began scrapping!!!! :lol: :lol: I keep looking at mine and thinking I must use it too. But the new stuff is always so much nicer :wink: :wink:
