Shopping our Stash Challenge 5 - Hello Kitty Birthday -2011 365 #092

This is my submission for the Shopping our Stash tools of the trade challenge...now I know why those tools sit in a drawer and will be going up for sale at the next scrapbook garage sale!

I used the Fastenator waste of $$$ for the staples, the I-Top waste of $$$ for the Hello Kitty brads, my Distresser from Zutter (which I thought was a waste of $$$, but I am starting to become fond of the effect), home made Pearl-Ex (remember Pearl Ex?? anyone??) glimmer mist, an unused Cuttlebug folder and an unused Cricut cartridge that I just had to have 5 years or so ago. The Happy Birthday is a Martha Stewart punch that I haven't used and the paper is from a Hello Kitty paper pack that I bought before the Cartridge (which is probably why I had to have the cartridge). The flowers are from a giant Prima pack that I paid way to much $$$ for and never opened...so I decided to start using everything up... why not? I made this card for my neice's 3rd birthday...I wish Hello Kitty had a teapot for her tea party...but a flower will have to do.
Thanks for looking!

Rosemary said...: Aren't you glad though that you used all of those $$$ purchases now? The card is absolutely adorable, and all of the elements work perfectly together. I'm very intrigued and want to play with the Shop Our Stash challenges - I need to carve out the time to do the challenges now!; Wednesday, June 22, 2011
