This month's challenge is all about using something unused in your stash and using it on xxx number of LO's. This month I plan on using my scraps(they're overflowing). I'm not sure how many LO's yet, because my mojo is off and on when I do have time to scrap. So, I am just going to try to create something this month using my scraps and also to use my Cuttlebug again. Last month I created a few LO's, but only managed to use my Cuttlebug on one. I hope you all will join in!! Happy Scrapping

I love the idea of using my scraps. I seriously have a huge amount of them.
I also want to use my alpha dies. I think I've only used them once since buying them.

Something unloved... hmmmm. I love it all. But there are some things I love more than others. I will make an effort to pick up something I don't love so much and use it. I'll try to remember to come back and post it.

I have a lot of dies I love but have not used, or at least have not used very much. I hope to use at least some of those for the Christmas in July card exchange.
I had thought of challenging myself to play with mixed media on my pages in July, but maybe that is a better challenge for next month.

I love this idea!! I'm going to pick a tool and a supply that I'll use on at least 10 projects (cards or tags)
My sewing machine and buttons. I haven't used my sewing machine in months and I have a million buttons.

Hope to get some scrafting done this week. I feel like everything is underused in my craft room right now since I have not gotten to spend much time in there. That should change this weekend, so lets just see what I can use!

I am planning to use some stamps in July. I have lots but tend to be stamping challenged. So, we will see if I can do 4 layouts with stamps.

I have recently started stamping on layouts, thanks in part to Glitter Girl.
I do however have lots of acrylic paint and mists I haven't used much recently, so that's my challenge for July!

I have lots of things to choose from. Not sure what I will pick - stamps, dies, embossing folders, water colors, distress oxide inks or project life type cards. I need to get my mojo back and quickly. I am really behind and haven't been scrapping lately. I would be happy to do three layouts this month even if I use a combo of the things listed.

For my layouts this month, I think I'm going to choose ribbon/lace. I know DawnMcD had some great pages using this in May. I'm keeping my embossing folders from last month too since I only create 1 stinking layout all month long.

I need to use wood veneer on my pages this month. I don't have a goal for how many pages I want to use it on but I need to use up some of the hearts since the little pie tin I keep them in is at max capacity.

I have sooooo many things I hardly use, I might end up doing a variety this month, and combine them with the other great challenges on this board. I am excited to scrap- here's hoping to having the mojo to getting some pages done!

My first page using scraps. I also combined it with the stash challenge(item last purchased -hexagon and heart punch) and the die cut challenge(using punches)

I'm rescinding my earlier item and have decided to instead work on using my alphas. They are seriously overflowing and I've made some good headway so far this year thanks to the BYOK and bash it challenges but I really need to make a concerted effort to finish the sheets instead of tossing them back in my drawer when most of the useful letters are gone.
I threw out two used sheets in late June and I have another three on my desk that only have one or two words left on them.

I have so many unused things I've been trying to add a little of everything to my pages lol. Way to go using up some of those sheets. I have a lot of 12x12 alphas I need to use up.

I used my Stickles! I seriously never think about them. I was doing some Christmas layouts and added the red stickles to a holly wreath embellishment.
I need to think about them more often.

I have so many scraps. I have been pulling them out to use more often. It will take longer than a month to make much progress, though. LOL. Still, I plan to keep at this for a while.
