ACOT Message Board

And the winner is StacyLee!!!  Congrats!  I will get your your GC shortly!!!  Thanks to everyone that played along this month!
Hello all!  I can't believe it is August already and time for another challenge!!  This month I want to try something a little different.  I am constantly trying to use up my stash...although I keep adding to it, so I'm not really making much progress!   So this month, let's help each other out and dig into that stash!!

Here are the rules:

LAYOUTS only, but open to digi, hybrid and paper scrappers
You may combine with one other challenge that allows it
Multiple entries are allowed, but let's limit entries to 3 per person
Post your layouts in the assigned gallery and to this thread
Layouts must be new for the month of August
Winners will be selected by random.org and the winner will receive a $5 ACOT gift certificate

This month, you get to choose your supply list, but I want you to use at least 5 of one item, 4 of another, 3, 2 and 1...you get the picture.  So you could use 5 flowers, 4 sheets of cardstock, 3 buttons, 2 stars and 1 piece of chipboard.  

If you start with 10 and work your way down (10 flowers, 9 buttons...) you will get a bonus entry.

Have fun! 

What a great twist, Shannon! I desperately need to clear out some older stash so this challenge is going to be at the top of my list!

Oh this is great! I have been digging into my stash and trying to use a lot when I can. I also like that you limited the amount of entries. It's hard to have a chance when some people flood a challenge. Thank you for hosting. Going to  start digging into some more old stash to make room for some new stuff. A great challenge!

Ooh fun idea!  I was toying with the idea of hosting a new challenge that is also a stash buster and it would go great with this!

NICE challenge!

wonderful twist to the supply list challenge! I can think of all those eyelets and brads that are just sitting around gathering dust!! 

This is a great challenge, thank you! I agree with Karen c., thanks for limiting the number of entires, I plan to change up my submission rules when I post my August challenge, also.

Wonderful challenge! Love it!

Now trying to decide which stash to use, lol. Thanks for the challenge!

This is interesting! Thanks Shannon!

GREAT idea!!!! I hope I am understanding this right - I'm listing my 10 supply items here and then will do the specific numbers per layout.

1. scraps / small paper pads (8x8 and under)
2. stickers (alpha and non-alpha)
3. eyelets/brads/buttons
4. ribbon/fibers/twine
5. washi
6. journal cards / 3x4 card things
7. bling
8. chipboard
9. patterned paper
10. flowers

This is a great challenge!

This challenge was perfect for my heritage layout - Moment in Time. I used 5 buttons, 4 PPs, 3 brads, 2 photos and 1 clock. Also submitted for the August Pinterest Challenge.

Great idea to help us bust our stash!  I combined this with the Creation Every Other Day challenge.

I used:

5 patterned papers
4 flowers
3 washi strips
2 buttons
1 chipboard (the cherries square)

Shannon, are we allowed to use anything else on our page beside the 5 different things? I didn't count my paper as 1 of the five different things...so if I did it wrong...let me know I'll remove it from this post!! 
 
5 black pearls
4 clear bling rhinestones
3 flowers
2 doilies
1 button

love, love, love this!  I am also guilty of adding to my stash before it dwindles enough!  I will never be organized again!  But this challenge will be quite helpful!!

This is for the Supply Challenge using...
5 of 1 item - 5 papers (4 pp's, 1 cs)
4 of 1 item - 4 pieces of washi tape
3 of 1 item - 3 wooden veneers
2 of 1 item - 2 sticker accents
1 of 1 item - 1 tag

I combined this with the Get 'Er Done Challenge.
