Just one layout today. Working on my July Hip Kit. I did bust out an old frame die that I got cheap, but haven't used before.

Another page down! Unfortunately this one really didn't bust through many supplies. I used about 5 half sheets of paper and one full sheet for the background. I still have extras of the embellishments too. But that's ok, I really like the page and it's a design I may revisit when I want to make a frugal page.

Love the squares on point and the crimped flowers. I can see that page design burning up the pieces left over from ANY collection!

Thanks ladies! I'm really having a great time going through my stash and pulling bits and pieces together to make pages without spending any money. Plus, a lot of the products out right now really aren't my style or I don't like the color schemes so even when I tried to shop a bit last night I couldn't find anything I wanted to buy that I thought would work better than what I already owned. Here's the page from today. Those are Studio Calico wood veneer stars which I've been hoarding and using sparingly forever. I love them. But I love them even more on this page than I do in their package which means their excessive use was well worth it to me.

chaosisapony I love your pages! The stars look amazing on that layout. I made 2 cards yesterday. I used some Izink inks I bought back in December, 1/4 sheet of glitter paper, BoBunny glitter paste, a Prima stamp. I did not burn through much, but I have four cards to make for February and I'm doing the Layout A Day challenge from ScrapHappy so I should do some serious damage.

You all are doing amazing and I just loved all the layouts shared! Isn't it funny how layouts rarely use up much of our stash?
I'm determined to begin scrapping again this week so I can add my list of things I've used, cause you ladies are making me jealous of how much you're accomplishing!

I decided that instead of being jealous of you all for all the lovely projects you had been creating, I would sit down and do something about it. I just needed to MAKE myself get back in a creative place. It's hard after being sick to know where to begin, so I just grabbed the next page in my December Documented and worked on it. Here is what I used: 6x8 piece of an October Afternoon paper 1/3 piece paper that I used the white side to mat newspaper print tissue (?) paper for layering OA label sticker and tab Jillibean (thankful) sticker 2 Bella Blvd stickers from Christmas Cheer 4 aqua glitter foam snowflakes from Target $ Spot 5 aqua Mini Market alpha sticker (an icy) 5 velvet chipboard letters (wreck) maybe colorbok? I still need to sew it and maybe add enamel dots or something, but at 3:00am I am extremely happy that I found my creativity, even if it was because I was a wee bit jealous that you all were accomplishing soooo much! PS...take all this in the joyful way it was meant! Thanks for each and everyone of your help

Plus, it's always good to have your cards made. iheartpaper, way to go! Glad you were able to create! linda, Awesome job!

I am back at home today, and dh has been away from the house--in town for coffee, and then helping his nephew with cattle--so I managed to finish 4 pages today. Used up:
5 sheets pp (almost the last of one Christmas line) 1 1/2 sheets cs. finished a sheet of Christmas greeting stickers, and used about half of a sheet of ornament stickers. Several PL cards, plus some scraps from earlier crafting. Several wood veneer letters, plus some Thicker letters. A 12" strip of ribbon I have had for a few years.

I think it has been - anytime we have this many pages of people posting what they've accomplished and cheering each other on, it can only be a good thing

Ok I will see if I can come up with something fun. The spending freeze will be over, too, which will make a lot of scrappers really happy!

Ok I will see if I can come up with something fun. The spending freeze will be over, too, which will make a lot of scrappers really happy! This HAS been fun! I haven't been exactly frozen, but have found myself using up a lot of my older stash this month. Looking forward to whatever you come up with! This morning, I finished a 2 page spread using (mostly) Basic Grey. All from my stash: 3 sheets of pp and parts of a 4th, some cs, an old doily, some gold mylar, some Zva swirls, a piece of a tag, and a bit of ribbon. I had hoped to get it photographed and posted, but much too dark and dreary around here for that today. On to the next!

Just finished a couple more pages. Used large Santa photos which needed no journaling other than names, places & dates; and this year's BB and CB Christmas collections which match each other perfectly, so pretty quick to put together these. 1 1/2 sheets cs. 1 sheet plus some scraps of BB pp, some CB word and letter stickers (and some label stickers from my Christmas wrapping ) Also used some foam word stickers from a couple of years ago: hadn't used them before because the words were not what I wanted to say when I had the stickers in hand. Today, I cut the words up and used the letters I needed for my title! Happy scrapping, Ladies!

I have been scrapping and using supplies up lately. I scrapped Christmas 2015 and 2016 using stuff I already had instead of purchasing new goodies. Unfortunately I could probably scrap the next 5 Christmas holidays with what I have left. I may go through everything and seriously purge some of it.
I have also made myself use my Cricut more. I have been cutting out titles instead of using my Thickers and taking the time to look and see if I have any images I could use for embellishments. Feels good to use that tool more. I also figured out how to set the paper size so when I'm using a scrap I know if it will fit before I start cutting. Yayyy!!!!
I'm getting ready to scrap some of our summer vacation using a Pink Paislee paper pad. Hoping to use quite a bit of it up.

The sun came out, so here is my BG 2 page spread: watch this! by Gramma Dee, on Flickr I am happy with it, but when I look at chaosisapony's page, I think I should hit up my wood veneer stash and find something I could add on...
