Lisa & Lori's Great Stash Bash 2022 ~ March edition!

Happy March!  It's a new month and time for a new edition of The Great Stash Bash Adventure with Lisa & Lori!!  I am happy to report I did do a bit better with using my kit last month!  I did not use it all as I would have liked but I did create 3 cards and a TN layout with it! I will post an update later this week. So I am still not out of my slump 😕 but at least I did use SOME of my kit this month which is better than the previous month, so I will take that as a positive! I am hoping this month will be even better!!!  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 March 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 March 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 6 x 6 paper pads!!!
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 decided to do 2 kits instead of one kit!
Here is my first March kit :

Side A of the papers (this is my favorite side!)

Side B of the papers:

My embellishments, scraps and stash item (6 x6 paper pads):

I am loving the Spring Vibe this kit has!! These are papers from the Hip Kit Dream Big collection with one paper from the Echo Park Little Dreamer Girl Collection (dark pink hearts).  I also included chipboard stickers and ephemera from the Simple Stories Bunny and Blooms collection that I was gifted and have been hoarding!!  I don't have any of the papers from this collection but I think it goes well with these papers I have chosen!  Then I have the Hip Kit Dream Big ephemera and chipboard embellishments as well.  I chose the Elle's Studio Live Laugh Love 6 x 6 paper pad and a mix of plaid 6 x 6 papers by Stampin' Up that I haven't used yet.  I stuck to just two 6 x 6 paper pads to allow me to concentrate on using up these pads that I have had for a long time!! 

Now for my second kit:

Side A of the papers:

Side B of the papers:

My embellishments, scraps and 6 x 6 paper pads:
For this kit I am hoping to scrap my friend's granddaughter's 3rd birthday pictures she sent me.  I have picked papers from Echo Park's Magical Birthday Girl collection as well as a 12 x 12 sticker sheet from this line.  I also picked an ephemera pack from Echo Park's It's your Birthday line.  My 6 x 6 paper pads are from Crate Paper Cute Girl and Echo Park's Party Time line. I am hoping to make some birthday cards for my stash and think this kit will be fun to create some birthday cards for guys and gals with!!  

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!!
