Aug Reminder & More Samples!

We have a couple more samples for you and a final reminder that you've got just shy of 3 days left to play in our August Challenge to USE YOUR STASH! This challenge is pretty much wide open for anyone to play so we would love to see even more entries & followers join us this month!

First up, we have an in store entry to share with you- another great card from 12 year old Kaila:

Isn't she talented? It's so great to see what she's been bringing to us each month, we hope you'll continue to play along once school starts, Kaila!

Julie whipped up another page using up some oldies she found while sorting through our stash as well- I think the oldest item on the page is those photo corners from Making Memories- they've got to be close to 5 years old, and they still look great :)
So YES, there is still a chance for YOU to play along with us- we can't wait to see what you'll create when you use your stash!

Mid Month Reminder.....

Can you believe it? ? ? The middle of August already. It's that friendly reminder for our challenge. And of course some more inspiration from the DT members.
This month's challenge is to "Use your Stash"

Have you found yourself looking through your papers or "that" box and saying "OMG I completely forgot I had this. Man, I haven't even inked this stamp up yet." Well now is your chance to us it!! Here's what we came up with.

You can always see the projects in the store or go to the DT's blogs and get more info as well..maybe give some love :)





Thanks for stopping by..can't wait to see what stash you've had tucked away ! !

August Challenge PRIZE

This month's prize goes right along with the theme of the challenge... we've been sorting through our stash and found some old (but new) goodies that we had duplicates of! This month's random winner will receive the following items, which may be added to as the month goes on!

First, we have a 6x6 Basic Grey paper pad from their "Perhaps" collection- there may be one or two sheets missing, but we think it's all there!

Next, we have an untrimmed, unpackaged, marked "d" for demo set of cling mounted stamps by Cornish Heritage Farms. This set was a SOTM in June 2010 and is discontinued!
Worth playing for? I hope so! Please join us and get out there and USE YOUR STASH! Challenges don't get much easier than this :)

August Challenge!

It's a new month, which means we have a new challenge for you, but before that, we need to announce the winner of our July challenge. We have drawn the winner using random.org and the winner is: #9... Kaila!
Congrats! We hope you'll enjoy your prize- you can stop by the store and pick it up as soon as you like :)

We've got an easy one for you this month... we're challenging you to
USE YOUR STASH
to create any project you like, which is pretty much an 'anything goes' type of theme! We would love to see you scrapbook an older photo or use that fabulous stamp or paper you bought a while back... it's probably feeling neglected just waiting to be put to creative use ;) So, give your stash some love this month! Feel free to mix up the old with the new and make something pretty (or masculine, whatever you like, really)!

We would love to see our follower list grow with this challenge, so please feel free to connect with us there! Hope you'll join the fun this month- all we ask is that you follow our simple rules, which are posted in the side bar. Most of all, have fun!

Here's what some of the design team members came up with:


... and we'll be back with more inspiration from the rest of the DT to share with ya soon! We can't wait to see what you make this month as you USE YOUR STASH (make room for some of the fabulous new goodies arriving soon)!

Remember, you can submit your projects both online and in the store until Friday, September 2.
