Stashbusters 2024 ~ Theme 1!


Hi friends! 


 Today is the big debut of the 

Stashbusters 2024 card group

and I'm SO EXCITED for this one!

I was delighted to be invited by my friend who started the group

because a STASH I do have and it needs BUSTIN!





You can see my quick YouTube version here:



The idea?

Shop your own stash and challenge yourself to create 

with. what. you. already. own!


As a card maker, stamper, paper crafter I am 

GUILTY AS CHARGED

of buying (and buying and buying) but not using,

at least not as often as I should.

Hence, 'bust' your 'stash.'

We make 3-6 each theme so at the end of 2024,

we should have a total of 81-162 cards for donation :)




We have themes.  

So it's easy to stay on track and not go rogue!

This week was Armen's choice and it's a GOOD ONE!

"If you were a card, what would you look like?"

Probably choas :)  

Hands down.

and I'd be late *grin*

But I would also be whimsical, bright colors and have cute critters!


I chose Pink and Main crafty pals and just love LOOOOOVE this set!

I paired it with a few things:

a crisp clean background (I like things clean and tidy!)

with a watercolor background piece (my favorite medium)

with some colorful critters (check!)

I added a small teal border to represent my favorite colors: green/teal.




Here they are together at a glance ~ 

3 down, 159 more to go! :)

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Kelly, this set of cards is so colorful and sweet, too. I'm impressed with your commitment to only use what you have this year! (I fear I would fail miserably.)
