Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2021 ~ February edition!

Happy February!!  Wow, didn't January fly by???!!!  I just love February!!  For some reason pink, red, hearts, lace and all the related Valentine's Day icons just make my heart happy!!  I know many of you feel the same, and so it will be no big surprise when you will see a LOVE theme in my kit this month!!  So let's dive in and get this party started!!!

For those who are new to the challenge here is how it works:

On the 1st of each month we will post a challenge prompt and the stash kit we have created using that prompt. During the month we will try to use as much of our stash kits as possible on different projects. Then, on the last day of the month, we will do a recap post showing what stash we were able to bash!

This will be a just-for-fun challenge so no monthly prize - but isn't the real prize using up our stash? You never know - if we still have a few unused stash items after a few months, then those items may just go into a giveaway. We hope you will join us in our quest to bash some stash in 2021. If you accept the challenge to play along - link up on either my blog or Lori's Blog (or both if you choose) so that we can see who is joining us each month!

Now for our February challenge:

Here are the rules for 2021:

This month we will create a kit with 10 papers (dig into your stash for new or old papers it's up to  you!), 5-7 scrap papers (let's keep those scrap piles under control!), 3-4 embellishments (new or old- you decide), and some 12 x 12 sticker sheets!!!

1. Follow the challenge prompt to create a kit to work with throughout the month. You may use other items, but please concentrate on using your kit. 

2. Create new, not previously posted projects using your stash kit.

3. If you have a blog - please include the challenge graphic and a link to our challenge in your posts. 

4. You may link to social media if you don't have a blog. If you share on Instagram, please make sure to use - #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2021

Since this is a just for fun challenge the rules are not set in stone BUT we have them to help you focus on what really matters using your stash!  We also hope you will help spread the word of our fun challenge so others may join in!!  You know you have at least one friend who needs to use her stash!! 

This month I am making 2 "mini" kits instead of one "big" kit.

Here are my 2 "min" kits using the February prompts:

I  love the pops of blue in this kit, mixed with the red and pink to give it a bit of a nontraditional Valentine's Day tone! 

This kit is more traditional with red, pink & black but I love the fun whimsical stickers and ephemera included in this kit! 

Now for a break down of the two "mini" kits:

10 Patterned Papers:

These papers are from: Pebbles My Funny Valentine, Simple Stories My Valentine, Crate Paper La La Love, Simple Stories #whatever and Simple Stories Vintage Botanicals.

5-7 scrap papers:

These scraps are from PhotoPlay Paper Be Mine, Simple Stories My Valentine, and Simple Stories Kissing Booth. 

4 embellishments:

These embellishments are from Pebbles My Funny Valentine, Crate Paper La La Love, Paper House Productions and Simple Stories My Valentine.

Stash Bash Item:  12 x 12 sticker sheets:

My 12 x 12 sticker sheets are from PhotoPlay Paper Be Mine, Simple Stories Romance, Simple Stories My Valentine and PhotoPlay Paper Love Letters.

I am sticking with a Valentine's Day theme for February as you can see! I really want to use up these 12 x 12 stickers sheets!  They are so hard to store and it seems almost impossible to use them up!! Wish me luck!! 

I am super excited to dig into my fun kit this month!! I hope you will join Lori and myself as we endeavor to bash some stash this month!  Remember if you play along make sure and use the #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2021.  I can't wait to see your kit!  Happy creating!!
