Rediscover Your Old Stash!

Welcome back! Ooohh, we've got a great challenge over at More Than Words this month. The challenge is to be inspired by the word "Discover" and to use up some "Old Stash" on your project. Using up Old Stash is something that nearly all of us need to do so I was keen to get stuck into this one.

I raided my, ahem, "extensive" supplies and came up with this:


Absolutely everything on this page is old and some is positively ancient! Remember how we'd sometimes get scrapping papers in magazines? I used some of those here. I don't think I've ever used these papers before. I must say, I rather like them! The alphas are similarly ancient, but by mixing the fonts, and with creative use of colours, I think I created a more modern look with them.

Old stamps and chippies jazzed up with stitching and colour.


Another old stamp given a modern look by fading out the stamping.



The yellow tab is actually the top of some old packaging. I like the funky see-through effect.


That was fun! I hope you can delve into your Old Stash this month and join us!

You can find the challenge here.


Happy scrappin'!
