As you may have heard
Craft Hoarders Anonymous has changed up how we do things just a bit and we are going to one challenge a month. This will give more of you time to join us in our little bit of madness and play along. We strive to use our stash and encourage you to do the same. For years I have hoarded things and now I'm playing with things I'd forgotten about. This past year has been a real awakening for me. I've seen how I hoarded things and now realize it's time to use them!
This month you can create any type or style of project you wish as long as you pick ONE (1) item from each category in the chart below! Choose your cardstock, printed paper, or other base (box, canvas, tray, etc.). Next choose your adhesive. Finally, from the chart below, choose your coloring medium, fiber, technique, texture and embellishments for your project. The combinations are almost endless! (You may choose more than one item from each category, but you MUST have AT LEAST ONE from each!) Have fun, and welcome to a NEW YEAR at
Craft Hoarders Anonymous!
Here is my project for this challenge. I have to confess I purchased new Spellbinders dies in December. (They are my passion) Consider them my Christmas present to myself! Is there a 12 step program for hoarding dies? (My name is Glenda and I'm a Hoarder!)
I used the following from the chart:
Coloring Medium - Ink
Fiber - yarn/thread
Technique - Stamping-Die Cutting and Folding
Texture - Embossing
Embellish - Flowers
You are next, join our challenge; create a fun project of your own using some of your hoard then link it back to the
Craft Hoarders Anonymous Blog. I can't wait to see what you make! You have until 12 PM Pacific Time on 2-8-2015 to create a project and link it to the blog.
You can visit the design team by clicking on their names below. Go see what they created; I promise you will find something that will inspire you along the way. We all love hearing from you and we are all excited to have you join us!

Beautiful card, Glenda, I love your die cuts...hoarder, no, just someone who loves elegance! Have a wonderful Monday!
Sooo pretty and I just adore your awesome flowers! 12 steps?.........nah, you use them to perfection!
Glenda, your card is absolute perfection! I love your color palette, the intricate die cut, and those fabulous flowers!! I'm a major hoarder too, so it looks like we're both in the right place-lol! Lucky you to have treated yourself t the new Spellbnders dies. I can't wait to see what else you create with them.
Hugs,

Wow! Stunning! Beautiful new dies, Glenda, and always gorgeous flowers. I have too many dies and embossing folders and everything else I haven't used yet. My eyes are always bigger than my time, but I have fun trying!
This is gorgeous! I don't consider it hoarding if you are using it, and you definitely have a way of making gorgeous items to share with those of us who only wish we can make something like this. Thank you for sharing and I hope you enjoy your dies to the fullest!
Oh my friend this is GORGEOUS! What a beautiful die that is ... hmmm wonder if it's on my wishlist, lol! With the extra time I SHOULD be able to join in the fun ... now to pick my categories! Great challenge and FABULOUS creation! ALWAYS an inspiration ... thanks so much!
Stay warm ...
Hello lovey lady, I adore your card, it is stunning...just love how you layer together such amazing projects.
Your die cut layers make me envious. This is such a beautiful delicate piece.
oh! I love the vintage look to this card, especially the flowers...it's just too stunning! Love..Love..
That's so gorgeous - I love the natural colour palette and fab die frames, but it's the flowers that really steal the show - magnificent! Great inspiration for the CHA challenge.
