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:

• Martha Stewart Butterfly punch
• Sun paper clip
• Simple Stories “I {heart} Summer”
• Wild at Heart collection
• Bella Bohemia Collection
• Lily Davis felt letters
• Doggie quotes – stamps
• Let’s Eat Cake collection

A few small items didn’t get used, so they are getting a ‘second chance’:

• Basic Grey fabric brads
• Burgundy bling
• Simple Stories Flair
• Basic Grey “Evergreen” chipboard alphas

And speaking of second chances, I used BOTH of the “second chance” items from September:

• Butterflies
• Lilac and pink mixed bling

So, lets kick off November with the items that I pulled to try to use:

Bling – different shades of purple
LYB pocket with strips. Remember those?
Mini green glittered brads
A pre-made white bow.
Kitty and doggie ribbon

7 Paper pet stamps. Now that we have Jackson, I can try to use the kitty ones too!
Elle’s Studio “Thankful” cork embellies. I have the entire paper collection and haven’t opened these up.

Jillibean Soup – Chit Chat Chowder. I pre-ordered this collection and the Hardy Hodgepodge and have already made a few layouts with that one. Would like to open this one up too and try to make something.

Remember these from Martha Stewart? The corner punch and with border? I forget about it.

Simple Stories “Good Day Sunshine”. I did so well with the older summer collection, all I have is scraps and 2 pieces of chipboard, some word stickers and 2 brads. Figured I’d see how far I get with this collection!

Basic Grey “Sultry” collection. This is it. This is what I have left. Let’s see what happens!

As always scrappy friends, wish me luck and I’ll try to come back periodically thru the month and show you what I use up! 😉
