It's a Two-fer! Use It Tuesday Challenge # 12...

Hello again users! It's that time again to dig into your stash for another challenge at Use It Tuesday.

Our challenge this week is to make a project (layout, card, etc.) that has TWO HOARDED ITEMS. I know we all have more than two items but just relax, breathe, and soon you'll be able to decide which two to use.

Here's my two-fer layout:

Two hoarded items in this Chirstmas layout are paper and stickers.

Paper - October Afternoon papers
Stickers - Fabric stickers and Chipboard alpha stickers

Please do visit the Use It Tuesday blog for challenge details and to see the wonderful creations of our fabulous DT. This challenge is open to all scrapbookers and card makers.

Just a friendly reminder: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used.

As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!

So come join us and just USE IT!

Good luck everyone!

Here's the layout I made based on this challenge:

Stash:

RED - patterned paper as base
WHITE - paint, word rubons, AC thickers, MM tiny sticker alphas
BLUE - paint, stickles, AC thickers, MM tiny sticker alphas
