Title: WF15 Hangover Challenge - Leftovers (3/2-3/8)
Post by: Craft Nerd on March 02, 2015, 09:08:30 AM

If you're like me you have a bunch of leftover bits and pieces taking up space that you keep meaning to use.

Requirements: Use at least 1 leftover item to create a new project. 

Examples of what I mean by a leftover item:
 - leftover bits from a kit in an envelop swap
 - a stamped image that didn't work for the project your were originally planning on using it for, so you set it aside to use later
 - you created a background for a project but only ended up using part of it
 - you started working on a fest challenge and decided the item wouldn't work for the challenge but you saved it to use later (I have leftover bits from WSW14 on my desk)

Are you getting the idea? 

Your project can be anything - ATC, card, Inchie, tag, scrapbook page, whatever floats your boat.   

Be sure to link your project to this thread and in your post identify what the leftover item is.

Combining challenges: But of course.

Deadline: You have until midnight your local time on Sunday March 8 to post your project.

Examples:
Birthday Card (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=lastup&cat=0&pid=1191#top_display_media)

The image was leftover from a received kit.

Cool challenge Sarah---this is a great idea!  Thank you for hosting!

So I can use leftovers from past festivals and swaps?  I have a couple things from this festival, but I have more from other things.

I have tons of leftovers, especially from KIAE swaps, that I need to use up. If I had time, I bet I could make 20 projects.  The other thing is, I thought I would use my other backgrounds from my Faux Patina  challenge during WF, but nothing came up to use them, so I hope to find a use for those too.

That is a great idea for a challenge!  Thanks for hosting!

Absolutely, Melissa.  That was the inspiration for this challenge.  I have tons of stuff leftover from past festivals and swaps.

Great idea for a Hangover Challenge--especially since people probably still have WF15 leftovers at hand.

This is the card I made using the leftovers from WF15---which was my drive-by flowers and the BG for Ann's 3=1 challenge,  I also included a scallop window cut-out I made for some festival/challenge we had on twopeas about 2 years ago.  I have a little box with a flip lid and latch that I keep all pieces I don't use....

I wish I had time to do more--but this did help me practice digging in that box and making something!

I left the tag blank (oh that's also a leftover from inkfest 2014) b/c I'm not sure what to use it for yet.

Thank you Sarah for hosting a challenge that got my into my leftover box!

I got one card put together from leftovers.  LOL!  I pretty much picked out some stuff that might go together and dropped the pieces on the card front until they didn't look too bad.  Here is the result. (http://www.duhnproductions.com/Pics/displayimage.php?album=77&pid=1222#top_display_media)

Sorry I'm a little late in posting the winner.  Having learned my lesson last time, I skipped having the pets help and used a random number generator.  And the winner is....



Sadie. 

Woo Hoo. 

Thanks ladies for playing along.  And I'll get your RAK out to you sometime this week, Sadie.

Oh my goodness, thank you Craft Nerd.  I surely do not ever expect anything for joining in on the challenges, the fun I have doing them is enough.  But I sincerely thank you.....
