I think that sale was in 2016?
Anyway, I ordered one (ugh) and it was completely undervalued... so I was given a coupon code and sent a supplemental box. Both boxes combined reached the $100 warehouse sale price so i can't complain too much, but I haven't used anything from my boxes! I put everything in a 12x12 box and it's sat in my studio, unused.
My goal this weekend is to create 5 page kits from the contents of my warehouse boxes and actually use up some of these supplies! There is some cute stuff in there, including plastic stars, mistable Thickers, Tim & Beck paper, tags, four stamp sets, and lots of alpha stickers.
I don't usually create page kits so this should be fun!
What crafty things are you up to this weekend?

I am going to make a card for my dad tomorrow. He's been down and out (up and down) since the beginning of June. Finally seems to be moving in the right direction. I know he the loves things I make him, so it makes me happy to finally have some time to do it.
ETA: I can imagine those SC warehouse boxes leaving a sour taste in my mouth, that I would probably not have wanted to touch them. Good thing you did get some nice things in there.

I found some HP paper today and grabbed some for a friend of mine. She saw the Cursed Child last month in London. I also might have picked up the new Simple Stories fall line because their fox looks exactly like my corgi. (Who has ever seen a chubby faced fox in real life?).
My son told me he wanted me to take some fall pictures of him and his girlfriend when the leaves change colors, so that Simple Stories fall line will be perfect for that too.

Please share pics of your kits once you get them assembled - I would love the inspiration since much of my warehouse box (and supplement) are untouched as well. |

I'm just trying to catch up with the sketches. 4 to go now in order to get caught up.
ETA, I'd also love to see a photo of the contents of that box - sounds like a lot of good stuff !

Great idea about the warehouse boxes! I used to buy them a lot but there always was quite a few things unused. I scrapped for a little bit today and yesterday, that’s progress for me 🤗 We took a trip to M’s today and I got a few things too. Very excited to find the leather like traveler notebook cover for 3.49 on clearance. I had a hard time finding things because they’re always moving things around but I definitely had fun getting out and didn’t spend much.

I went through all my summer collections this week and purged. I had lots of them with just a few papers left in each and they weren't getting used. I combined what I kept into one. OMG...it's as bad as my Christmas collection. I do not have to buy summer themed paper or embellishments for years, if ever.

Good for you for finding a silver lining on what was such a disaster!

Yesterday I worked on getting caught up on sketches. I still have 6 to go. I hope to have more time next weekend.
I too would love to see your page kits too. I typically keep collections, kit club kits and page kits for scrapping from. It makes it so quick for me for traditional layouts. Otherwise I spend hours upon hours searching through papers.

You'll have lots of leftovers to re-kit when you've finished with these pages - Have fun scrapping with your "new" goodies |

Wow, love those page kits! Great idea 💡 I bought studio calico kits on sale for the first time last Christmas but I want to keep them intact for 1 or 2 layouts before separating eveeything.

mandolyn9909 the little boy in that photo is my youngest son, who was 4 when I took those photos. He is 9 and in 4th grade now! Where does the time go?! He was such a cute little bugger! I titled that scrapbook page "Grandma's House Always Has the Best Toys"... and I know he will agree with me! I finished all five pages (yay!) and I'll work on getting them uploaded to this thread. Thanks for all the scrapbooking chit-chat! You ladies are the best.

Your kits look great! They're good inspiration...I do kits but I always am a little skimpy on the embellishments when I put them together.
