challenge: use it or lose it.

In efforts to purge and actually use my supplies rather than hoarding them and eventually not wanting the product anymore, I decided this year to was either use it or lose it.
I've been holding onto several empty chipboard alphas thinking I would find some genius way of using them but they quickly collected dust.
Not today.
Today they were worked into a layout and possibly a mini.
If they were not used, I would toss it.
So when you're faced with that choice of using something you absolutely love or throwing it away, what do choose?
Thought so.
So let's actually use those items we love. Today.
Ok...you actually have a week for this challenge.
Use it or lose it. Make the choice. Don't wait for that perfect layout you foresee in the future that will call out for that rub on or chipboard piece. That time is now. Why else would you have the overwhelming feeling of wanting to hold onto it forever?

Back to that empty chipboard alphabet piece.
I first imaged this as a mini album but after laying out the pieces, I thought it looked pretty sweet as a layout. Could go either way, we'll see.
The thing about it is this piece of chipboard I hoarded looks a whole lot better to me now than it did in a pile of random half used supplies. It's satisfying to actually use something rather than keeping it tucked away.

Your challenge is to simply use it or lose it.
Due by next Saturday. I'll choose a random winner Sunday.
Happy Monday.
