We want to help you use your stash

At C'est Magnifique, it's time for another Use Your Stash challenge. The goal of this challenge is to encourage you to use some things that you have in your stash. So grab some paper that has been neglected, and go through your embellishments, where I'm sure you'll find something that you've had for a while. Other than that, there are no restrictions. You may create a layout or card for this challenge.

You will have 2 weeks until midnight EST (New York City time zone) Sunday, November 13th to complete your project. Please upload it to the October "Use Your Stash" folder in the gallery, post an image in this thread of the forum, and don't forget to tell us what you used from your stash. The winner, chosen by the design team, will be announced in our forum and on the Blog. The winner will receive a RAK from C'est Magnifique!

Our challenges are designed to help you with your scrapbooking and card making, so we ask that you upload only newly created layouts for this challenge.

Have fun, and we look forward to seeing what you've got in your stash!

Our First Layout of November's Kit

Today we are going to show you the first layout created with our November 2011 kit! This is one that I designed and it was the first time I used the new Tim Holtz Picket Fence Stain. I wanted a more subtle look than the paper actually was and the stain was the perfect way to achieve that look.



I did use quite a few add-ons for this layout; including the new Prima Deer, the Kaisercraft Alpha, the Bo Bunny chipboard (which is a bit hidden under all those flowers, lol), the Prima Raffia and Parfait flowers and the Petaloo Roses as well. You can find all of them HERE IN THE STORE.

You may have noticed too that I used my Cricut! I joked that the thing squealed in delight at actually being used because I really never do. I believe the font I used was Polywog because it just looked like the perfect font for the fall look.

As for the photo I used, this is my son, daughter, her boyfriend and my adorable grandson at the South Texas Corn Maize (a little play on words there, huh?) in Hondo, Texas. We had such a great day there and I am quite sure you will all see more layouts with photos from the farm.

Be sure to check back often for more peeks at the Nov kit!
