U is for Unused Stash - More Inspiration

It's Helen here, back with some more inspiration or our current ABC Christmas challenge:

'U is for Unused Stash'

We want to you use something that you haven't used before on your projects this time...it can be something you've been saving for a special card...you know...only taking it out occasionally to admire/stroke...or something you've just bought...there are lots of lovely new Christmas collections being released at the moment...or maybe there's something in your stash that you have for absolutely ages but have never got around to using...now is your chance!

We have two fabulous sponsors for this challenge...as it's our first challenge of the month, we have Simon Says Stamp:


The prize is a $15 gift certificate to spend in the amazing Simon Says Stamp store!

And...if that's not enough...we are excited to welcome a new sponsor to our challenges...Bugaboo Stamps!


The prize from Bugaboo Stamps is 7 free digis of the winner's choice...wowee!!!

Judging by the number of entries so far...over 100 so far!...it would seem that you are as big a bunch of hoarders as we are! lol Thank you so much for coming to play with us this time...remember, there's no limit on the number of entries per person, and you're welcome to combine our challenge with as many as you like. So, if you've got some more unused stash lurking in your craft room, join us again and make another card...it's another one on the pile...and another chance at winning one of the fabulous prizes on offer! :0)

Don't forget, if you show us a photo of your 'unused stash' add 'GD' after your name in the linky, and you might win a Guest Designer spot on one of our future challenges! :0)

You can find the linky for your card...and even more inspiration on this post.
