Tracy says "I want you to really dig into your stash for this challenge. Here's a list of items you can use from your stash. You can use as many as you like but you have to use at least 4 from the list. And be sure and list which items you used.

Stash items:

Scrap paper

Washi Tape

Tag

Twine/ribbon

Stickers

Brads

Mist

Die cuts

I've used all of these on my layout.

So use up that stash! You have til the end of the month to enter!"

Happy Scrapping everyone!!! Let's use up that stash!!!

Design Team Member Candy Cheleppy took this card sketch to a whole new level!  In Australia, Sunday September 3rd was Father's Day and she decided to challenge herself to take this beautiful sketch and make it into a masculine card.

I'd say she did an amazing job!!!  Wouldn't you?!
