34 is a good chunk to me. A noticeable amount in my smallish stash of PL style cards.
Heck, I don't even do PL. I just couldn't resist some of the cards to use on regular layouts.
What scrappy accomplishments are you proud of?

I'd love to see how you used them ... Do you think you could post some of your layouts?

I love when I notice that I am making a dent in my supplies. Great job using your cards.

Used them as journaling spots. I especially liked that they are color coordinated, so I could just grab three or four cards, a pic, a sheet of kraft or white cardstock, and throw a layout together.

Yay!
I am almost finished scrapping December.....of 2005! To say that I am behind is putting it lightly.
I did a big purge and organization of my craft room recently so I am also trying to use old product and doing some stamping and adding ribbon to pages as I have tons of both.

I am impressed. I never get more than a couple on a LO.

That IS impressive! I can't resist buying PL cards, especially if there are a couple of perfect cards in a set, but my stash is getting out of control. I've started using them with washi tape instead of post-it notes. Everyone at school knows when I've left them a note or reminder because of the cards.

Wow! That's a lot used and lots of layouts finished.
With the move and trying to fix up the new house and get the old house sell ready, my last layout (digital as my paper is in boxes waiting to be unpacked) was finished on 6.18 so I'm proud that since Monday I've finished 11 layouts. (My whole house has horrible colds so I can only do so much packing, cleaning, and fixing.)

Good job! I always feel proud of myself when I use my stash. I have TONS of PL cards. I will never use all of them for pl. I really need to start using them for other things.

I didn't have a green ink pad and made my own color instead of going to store. I mixed distress ink colors together and painted the color on the stamp with a paint brush. I was very proud.

Any time I use one of my supplies that normally sits around untouched (Distress inks, Sew Easy, chalks, alcohol inks, etc.) I am proud of myself.
My most recent layout that I'm proud of was one where I laid various shades of gray cs across white cs. I left a 1/4" *grout line* between each strip. Each strip was cut crooked - maybe 1 1/2" on the left side & then 3" on the right. They were kind of like scalene triangles, kwim? It was really hard getting all those strips to line up - I suck w/rulers. I worked really hard on that page. And to look at it, only a scrapper would know how much effort it took!

I need to start looking at some challenges and using my stash.
Great job on putting a dent in yours.

That's awesome! I used up some PL cards this month, too: I did a 30 days of lists project with them. I wanted to dip my toe into PL because it's so intimidating, so each day I worked a bit on my lists project. There are a few empty spots at the end, but I just ordered photos yesterday that I took in August to fill the blank spots.

Great job! Using all those cards!! I just completed some LO's of a day trip I took in Jan 2012. I did two one page LO's with one 12x8 photos ea.and used 4 pocket pages for all the rest of the photos and journaling. One page is one of the new BH pages with the flip up or out section, for even more photos. And I only scrapped about 30% of the photos I took that day. It was a lot of photos but Tioga pass in Yosemite is only open in January about every 70 years, so I know I won't be taking that trip again Or unless our California drought never ends! :-(

Awesome, yay for you! I'm so proud of myself, too. I've been making a couple cards and, in the process, have used some Making Memories alpha rub-ons (from about 2004) and a few Prima flowers circa 2006. I know I have stuff that's much older than that in my stash, but it was still a proud moment; especially since those darn Prima flowers seem to multiply in their bottles. Lol

that is a great accomplishment!!! I keep buying those cut-apart journaling cards because they're cute, but never end up using them for anything. Of course, I haven't done much SB at ALL lately, so that doesn't count, really, but sooner or later, I will, I swear!!
When I finally DO use ANY of them on a layout, I WILL be proud of that!

Just watched a video on how to use these cards on your layouts. I love a way to use up some stash.

I don't do PL either but I love using the cards for layering on regular layouts and also with cards.
As for what I'm proud of? Lol not burning this stupid altered box I been working on for months! I get mad at hit and set it aside and come back to it weeks later to try and fix it. The paint keeps chipping and tonight I broke part of the flap that closes it. I'm about ready to divorce my box!!!!
