TN Time with Lisa & Lori ~ February edition!

Happy Valentine's Day!! I apologize for the delay in posting the challenge this month, life sometimes gets in the way of my crafting fun, but even though this is a short month you still will have until March 9th to play along! So without further adieu, let's get this party started!! 

HERE IS HOW OUR CHALLENGE WORKS: 

This is a monthly challenge that launches on the 10th of each month  You will have until the 9th at midnight CST to link up your entries. If you complete my sketch challenge link your TN, bullet journal or planner spread below. If you combined my challenge with Lori's challenge link up your spread here on my blog AND on Lori's Blog (My Happy Life). This is a "just for fun" challenge with no prize, but isn't the real prize just documenting your memories and getting more pages done in 2022???!!!! 

Now for my challenge!! Here is this month's sketch:

Now for Lori's challenge (February 14-March 9th):

What a perfect challenge for Valentine's Day!! Even though I didn't create a Valentine's Day layout I was still able to include some hearts on my spread!!  

Here is my spread using the sketch & Lori's challenge:

Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: Pebbles (Jen Hadfield) Reaching Out, Pebbles (Jen Hadfield) Along the Way & Paige Taylor Evans Wonders (green); stickers: Simple Stories Hey Crafty Girl (word strip & word "create"), Carta Bella Craft & Create and Pebbles (Jen Hadfield) Reaching Out (hearts); Letter Stickers: Keeping Cozy by the Hip Kit Club; enamel dots: My Mind's Eye, white pen: Signo; black pen: Sharpie

Now for some close ups:

I am still working on finishing up my 2021 TN, so this is another spread done in this TN!! Yay! These papers are from my February Great Stash Bash Kit, I love this mix of patterns. Green is a color I don't use a lot but I love this shade and the pops of pink and gold are so pretty with it! If you aren't familiar with the Great Stash Bash challenge, check it out HERE, you may want to join in the fun this year!! As you might notice, I love to outline all my papers, I just love that look, how about you??? 

My friend Paula G gifted me this Cinch from her stash last year and I was just floored...it was so out of the blue and such a BIG surprise!!  I was so astonished I didn't even get a picture of her and me with it and had to have a friend take this the next day!  I am just blessed to have such amazing friends in my life!!!

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

Happy February!  It's a new month and time for a new edition of The Great Stash Bash Adventure with Lisa & Lori!!  I'm still not out of my slump 😕 as I have been dealing with family members who are ill this month but I am determined to move forward and hope to turn things around this month!!!  So without further adieu it's time for another edition of The Great Stash Bash with Lisa & Lori!  Let's get this party started with the February edition of Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2022!! 

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 there is no monthly prize - but isn't the real prize using up our stash?  We hope you will join us in our quest to bash some stash in 2022. 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 2022:

Each month we will create a kit with 10 or more 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 a stash bash item!  This month's stash bash item is STICKERS!!!

1. Follow the challenge prompt to create a kit to work with throughout the month. You may use other items, but try to 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 & 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 - #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2022

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 will doing just one BIG kit instead of two smaller kits!

Here are the papers for my February kit :

These papers are from the Pebbles Jen Hadfield line Reaching Out as well as one paper from the Buenos Dias Obed Marshall line by American Crafts (yellow grid) and one paper from Paige Evans' Wonders line (green).  I love these fun colors don't you?

The papers "B" sides:

I really like the "A" sides better but will most likely use some of the "B" sides as well on my projects!! 

Close ups of the papers (my favorite sides):

My scraps:

These scraps are all from the Jen Hadfield Reaching Out line by Pebbles, Inc.

My embellishments and stash bash items:

I picked all stickers for my embellishments and stash bash item this month!  I have a sticker problem lol!  I have way to many in my stash and need to use them up! These stickers are from the Jen Hadfield Reaching Out line (foam on left, cardstock stickers next to them, and pressed flower 3D stickers), Paige Evan's Wonders line (banner stickers), Jen Hadfield The Avenue (far right) and the newest line by Pebbles Inc Kid at Heart.

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!  Remember if you play along make sure and use the hashtag #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2022.  I can't wait to see your kit!  If you create a kit link up below to share with us all!!  Happy creating!!
