Practical Scrappers June Blog Hop - Use Your Stash



Hello everyone!  Welcome to the June Blog Hop at Practical Scrappers.  For this month and every month we are scrapping our stash.  I don't know about you, but I know as a scrapbooker I have lots of stash so it's great to use it up.

Here is a list of the hoppers for June.  


You should have arrived here from Ruth's blog but if not you can begin at the Practical Scrappers website.  This is the monthly blog hop where the design team members and anyone else that wanted to join the hop can use our scrapbooking stash.  The rule is that the scrappy items have to be in your stash pre CHA.  That means that any scrappy items that came out before January 2014, which was the last CHA (Craft And Hobby Association Show) qualifies for this blog hop.  This is a great way to use up old paper collections and embellishments as I don't know about you, but I have enough stash for two lifetimes. LOL.

For my layout, I have several mists in my stash that I used to make the watercolour effect on my background of white card stock. I then took out some leftover patterned papers from the Carta Bella Cool Summer Collection and matted my photos and also cut an accordion flower and the word "beautiful" on my Silhouette Cameo.  The pink chipboard letter stickers and pearls have been in my stash forever.





I hope you enjoyed your visit.  Now hop on over to the talented Bobbi to see what she has created.  Thanks for stopping by!
