Happy September! It's a new month and that means it's time for another edition of The Great Stash Bash with Lisa & Lori! It's still so hot here in Texas, I'm ready for Fall, how about you? I am hoping this month is my month for really making a dent in my kit, since last month I did not do so well with this goal! So without further adieu let's get this party started with the September edition of Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2021!!
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 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 September challenge:
Here are the rules for 2021:
This 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 some tags!!!
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 decided to do 2 mini kits again!!
Here are my 2 mini kits using this month's prompts:
KIT #1:
For this kit I am using some fun florals and a fun pink, green, and blue palette!
Some close ups of the papers I selected:
These are the scraps and embellishments I picked for Kit #1. I love these envelope/tags from the Pink Fresh Studios Happy Blooms collection. I have some great ideas on how to use these fun elements! The ephemera pack is from the Hip Kit Club Delightful line and the puffy stickers from the Pink Fresh Studios Happy Blooms line will be perfect to use in my TN this month!! My scraps are from Echo Park Family Night, CTMH Mix In and Hip Kit Delightful!
Now for Kit #2:
I love this fun mix of eclectic patterns and bright and cheery colors from a variety of manufacturers!
The papers in this kit are from the Pink Paislee Horizon collection, CTMH Every Little Thing, Pink Fresh Studios Just a little Lovely & Happy Blooms, CTMH True Love & Hip Kit Delightful. What a fun mix of manufacturers in this kit!!
For my scraps and embellishments I mixed it up with this kit! The tags I picked are from the Pink Paislee Horizon collection and are layered and so pretty! The stickers are from the CTMH Every Little Thing collection and the Pink Paislee Horizon collection. The chipboard Thickers are from the Pink Paislee Horizon collection as is the ephemera pack! The scraps are from the CTMH Every Little Thing collection, Pink Paislee Horizon collection, and the CTMH Mix In collection.
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 #lisaandlorisgreatstashbash2021. I can't wait to see your kit! If you create a kit link up below to share with us all!! Happy creating!!
Both of your kits are beautiful and I can't wait to see what you create with them! They are both so bright and cheery! I actually did pretty well with my kit last month - at least in the paper department - and I hope I can do the same with this month's kit. I have a few layouts planned, so here's hoping!
