Welcome To The Hawaiian Islands

Using Old Stash

Hi scrappers! How is it February already?! This particular page I actually made last month but never got around to posting it here. It features a selfie taken on a beach in Oahu when my husband and I went a couple of years ago.

This entire page was based around the die cut stickers by Reminisce that I’ve easily had for over ten years. I made it a goal to use them all up so I could get them out of my stash. I really didn’t use too many other products on this page which is unusual because I usually embellish with half a dozen different things. I used some old floral brads as well as the striped background paper and stickers from the Surf N Swim collection by Trinity Paper Arts. Both of these items are also over a decade old and I’m not sure the company is even still around! The surfboard paper I used didn’t have a brand on it so I have no idea who makes it. I loved the details on the bottom with the plumerias and the cockatoo. I swear all the strips of paper are actually straight on the layout but the photo I took ended up being a little crooked. Oops!

I used sketch 289 over at Sketch N Scrap. I used one big photo instead of three small ones and replaced scalloped edges for pennants. My title isn’t nearly as big but the sticker I ended up using as a title fits really well.

That’s all for this week. A new month brings lots of new scrapbook challenges as per usual so I’m excited to get started on them ASAP. See you soon!
