Good morning everyone and welcome to my monthly challenge “Use or Lose It!” I did pretty good last month, using quite a bit of the stuff I pulled from my stash. Here are those items that got used up:

• Zazz glitter glue. I used them a few times. Had to throw out 2 of the bottles since they turned into liquid
• Flowers from Prima. I used all but ONE.
• Dear Lizzy PL-style cards. There are 2 left.
• Fancy Pants “Park Bench” border sticker sheets.
• Cloud 9 Rain Drop alphas in yellow. I only used a few of them.
• Bo Bunny “Forever Young” chipboard. I used half of the package
• Inkadinkado doggie stamps
• Basic Grey “Second City” 6×6 paper pack
• MAMBI “LOVE” collection pack – surprised to say I made about 3 layouts using this paper
• The paper Studio “Family Heirloom” collection

Here are two items I didn’t get to use, which will be given a second chance:

• Butterflies
• Lilac and pink mixed bling

I also did pretty good using some “second chance” items from August. Those were:

Here are the items that I didn’t get the chance to use, but will getting a 2nd chance this month:

• Bling
• Chalboard flags from AC
• Basic Grey “Highline” chipboard

There were 3 items, even with a second chance, that I never got around to using:

• Ribbon
• Lily Davis chipboard alphas
• A sticker sheet about friends and gardens

Now what is my challenge for October?

Martha Stewart Butterfly punch.
Basic Grey fabric brads
Sun paper clip
Burgundy bling
Simple Stories Flair

Who bought the entire collection of Simple Stories “I {heart} Summer” when it came out? I did! I did! Now this is all is left.

I just bought this at Hobby Lobby because I loved the gold and black and purple and fun patterns.

Here’s another Hobby Lobby pack. This would be perfect for heritage layouts. Or rich fall layouts.

More green chipboard alphas. I figured its closer to christmas and I can make cards. Basic Grey “Evergreen” and Lily Davis felt letters.

Doggie quotes – stamps!

One more Hobby Lobby pack. LOL. Birthday collection. I do need to make some bday cards. This would be perfect!

So as always scrappy friends, wish me luck!
