March Stash Challenge


I scrapped this layout for a scrap challenge on another site.  It was up to each scrapper to decide what their challenge would be for the month..... scrap with unused SG kits, use buttons, 6x6 pads, Rub-ons, anything from your stash that has been haunting you, or, has been in your stash too long!  I chose chipboard for my challenge, some of which was purchased when I started scrapping years ago.  It has gone unused for quite some time..... good thing it isn't all dusty!

 Along with using my chipboard stash, I am also getting closer to finishing Ava's second year.... so happy, too!  I scrapped another two pager with paper from Basic Grey's "Hey Girl" collection, which I love !  Since my challenge is to use chipboard from my stash, the title, and two of the frames are chipboard.  Since the frame on the left was stained and unusable in it's current state, I covered the frame with paper, then added a journal strip.  The chipboard for the title is some of my favorite font chipboard......I love it and wish I knew the brand.  I have had it for at least 10 years and purchased it at the first Creating Keepsakes event I attended in Kansas City, Missouri with my sister, niece, and a friend.  The first "E" in Easter was an "F" until I altered it and the second "E" is an "m".  One of the reasons that I like this chipboard is the fact that I can stamp them any color and they will turn out perfect!  
I am doing more scrapping than I thought I might while taking care of Grayson.  He is such a good baby....loving my new "job".
