Kick-Off Challenge (2/25)

 Hello Everyone and Welcome to our first challenge here at

THE NEGLECTED STUFF CHALLENGE BLOG!

If you read our Welcome page, you then know that this challenge is all about using those NEGLECTED crafting items you've had in your stash and haven't used in months & months (possibly years).  

This blog gives you the opportunity to re-acquaint yourself with those items and create something to share here with your fellow crafters and maybe remind them that they also have that product somewhere in their stash that they too had totally forgotten about.

Here are a few things that Diane & I had sitting around for a VERY LONG TIME
and would like to share what we've created to hopefully inspire you to join us.  

Darlene

My NEGLECTED item today is a sheet of 3D decoupage die-cuts by Dufex Craft Products that I've had in my stash for probably 10 years or more.  

Diane

My neglected stuff is Prima Jan/Feb (2017)  Julie Nutting Ephemera

 

* GUEST DESIGNER *

We are THRILLED to have BUNNY HOYLE (Bunny's Cards) Guest Designing for us today!
Bunny volunteered to guest design for our kick off challenge and we were more than happy to take her up on her offer! 

   Going Forward . . . our challenge Winner will also be invited to become a guest designer here at Neglected Stuff.  Here's what Bunny has created for your inspiration  . . .

Bunny has used a Poppystamps Heart Inlay die as her Neglected item.

 

You can read more details about our projects on our personal blogs.  Just click our name above our projects for further information.

Remember . . .

You can share your project in as many other challenges as you wish.
You have until FEBRUARY 28th to play along.
Winner's will be announced MARCH 2nd.

We can't wait to see what you create!
Thanks for your support!

FYI . . . If you're having trouble following us, blogger has put a limit on how many blogs you can follow.  I believe it is 200.  Be sure to go into the 'Reading List' on YOUR blog and remove any blogs that you don't follow any longer  or that have possibly closed down.  Hope this helps! 
Give it a couple days after you do your deleting and try to follow again.
