Well I have taken the scrapping bull by the horns and signed up for my first online class with Shimelle. I was lucky enough to have some funds in my Paypal account so I am now part of 'Something from almost nothing' it cost £10 and is all about ideas for using up existing stash, see Shimelle's blog for more info.Stash that will be used includes:-
Cardstock
Patterned paper
Ribbon
Buttons
Chipboard
Metals (brads, eyelets, label frames - that sort of thing)
Flowers
Buttons
Chipboard
Metals (brads, eyelets, label frames - that sort of thing)
Flowers
Stickers (both letters and designs)
Page protectors
Transparencies
..........................................all of which I have!!!
As part of our pre class prep (it starts on Wednesday by the way!) we had to take photographs of some of our stash (or all of it!!??!!). I am still working on my crafting corner so I have been trying to reorganise everything so I previously blogged pics of my buttons and 12x12 collection. Yesterday I took these:- (these will be my 66/365)
6 x 6 papers/card with some packets of embellishments
Stickers (mostly untouched K & Co as far too nice to use!) peeloffs + rub ons
scrapbooks (mostly gifts and all unused!)

and 3 draws of embellishments
there is more of course, much of which is unorganised chaos, so no pics of that!
there is more of course, much of which is unorganised chaos, so no pics of that!Some of my stash I really don't like very much, it is from those bargainous packs or mystery boxes from a couple of years ago. Some I absolutely love, the beautiful K & Co Papers with the matching embellishments so lush, mmm can you salivate over stash?? Yep I think you can and therefore it is really hard to actually cut into them or even open the packaging LOL!!!
I did manage to use up some stash yesterday by making 3 really quick and easy cards, I forgot to take any snaps of the first 2 and here is the third, a simple New Home card.
