Hello Users!<br />
<br />
I would like to start by saying that on behalf of the Use It Tuesday Team, it has been an AWESOME 3 years playing with you! <br />
{And I can't believe it has really been that long!}<br />
<br />
Our core admin team has gone through MANY changes since the inception of Use It Tuesday! From jobs to kids to babies to thriving businesses to international moves, we have seen it all! Thankfully we made it through with the support of one another.<br />
<br />
With all of that said, at this point in time, we just do not feel we can continue to support Use It Tuesday with all the love and attention it deserves. We have made the difficult decision to close out 2013 by saying farewell to the challenge-blog world.<br />
<br />
We hope you have been as inspired by us over the past 3 years as we have been by you. We love you all and wish you much happiness as you continue to use your stash!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We hope you will join us in our final challenge, which is all about <span style="color: blue;">WINTER & HOLIDAYS</span>!</span><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #33cc00; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;">***REMEMBER: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></div>
<br />
<div>
Please link your creation using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday 20 December</span>. No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE069</span> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation.<br />
<br />
Please make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.</div>
<br />
The Design Team has outdone themselves this week. Here's some great inspiration to get you started:<br />

<b><a href="http://about-the-paper.blogspot.com/">Michele</a> </b>made this simply stunning card with her Bo Bunny rub-ons that were part of a larger collection kit. We all have those left-overs, don't we?! She has had these stashed away for over 2 years. Looks just beautiful!<br />

<b><a href="http://landofstamping.wordpress.com/">Heather</a> </b>made this festive card by opening a stashed 6x6 paper pad that had been hiding in her craft room! She topped it off with the perfect sentiment from a 4 year old pack of Stampin UP rub-ons! We also recognize that cranberry ribbon purchased from the SU clearance rack a few years ago. I just might have a FEW rolls in my stash, too!<br /><br />

<b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://blossomcards.blogspot.co.uk/">Rachel</a></span> </b>pretty much pulled it ALL out of her scrap drawer to make this gorgeous winter inspired card. She had the card and the doily just laying around and found the gems at the bottom of a box! The topper and paper were left over from a kit. Such beauty put together from scraps!<br />

And our last but definitely <u>not</u> least Guest Designer for Use It Tuesday is <a href="http://snowboarderchic.blogspot.ca/"><b>Liz</b></a>!

<span style="color: magenta;">"Anything Goes"</span> week here at Use It Tuesday is always a popular one. This week, we had 115 gorgeous entries. Let me tell you, picking just two to highlight for you was a tough challenge. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Utopia, 'Palatino Linotype', Palatino, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;">
<br />
So, we didn't!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this challenge, we changed things up slightly at Use It Tuesday and will not draw a "winner" to be a future Guest Designer. Because of this, we instead decided to take our time wandering through the gorgeous entries and each Design Team member selected one entry they wanted to share with all of you.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you were one of the entries we chose to share, congratuations!<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you weren't, it doesn't mean we don't appreciate the time and effort you put into visiting us, creating for our challenge and them coming back to post it. There were simply too many gorgeous entries to show you all of them (it would be a VERY long post). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Of course, if you are reading this and have time, you are always welcome to go back through our InLinkz entries and leave some comment love for your fellow crafters. We all appreciate it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Now, let's take a tour through this week's <span style="background-color: magenta;"><b>Winner's Gallery! </b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We start with the selection from our fearless Challenge leader and founder of Use It Tuesday, Siobhan. Siobhan started Use It Tuesday 68 challenges ago (almost three years) with the goal of inspiring us all to get into our craft room and use those accumulating supplies. Thanks to her, the drawers and cupboards would probably be bursting by now. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Siobhan chose <b><span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://iliketocreate.blogspot.ca/2013/11/whoo-loved-receiving-her-owl.html">Melissa Miranda's</a></span></b> absolutely adorable owl gift basket that she made for her child's teacher. Isn't it adorable? She used brown papers from her stash to create this unique 3D project.<br />
<br />

Tracy picked <span style="color: magenta;"><b><a href="http://granddivasscrappyplace.blogspot.ca/2013/11/i-smile-because-you-are-my-sister.html">Brenda Ragsdale's</a></b></span> beautiful layout. Being a scrapbooker herself, I know that Tracy has a soft spot for the layout entries we get here at Use It Tuesday. This week, Tracy loved the layers that created an eye-catching creation. She's also a huge fan of the Teresa Collins collection Brenda used.<br />

<span style="color: magenta;"><b><a href="http://steffanies.blogspot.ca/2013/11/hurry-up.html">Steffanie S</a></b></span> was Michele's pick this week.She loved that Steffanie took some old patterns that didn't work for her and used the "B" side instead. She also loved the simple ornament shapes and fussy cut presents. Gorgeous and festive!! <br />

Heather wanted us all to see <span style="color: magenta;"><b><a href="http://cottonberrycreations.blogspot.co.uk/2013/12/a-girly-christmas-card.html">Shirley's</a></b></span> beautiful card. Heather has so much trouble with "busy" background papers, so loved how Shirley really made it work with this card. Plus, the coloring on the image - just highlights in the same shade as the paper - is really eye-catching!<br />

Valentina picked <span style="color: magenta;"><b><a href="http://lozcraft.blogspot.ca/2013/12/more-christmas-decorations.html">Lauren Tomacek's</a></b></span> advent calendar. This unique project itself is from her stash. It was first created in 2010 and Lauren updated it to be fresh again by replacing the main display panel and decorations.

The Design Team has outdone themselves this week. Here's some great inspiration to get you started:<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://blossomcards.blogspot.co.uk/">Rachel</a></span> </b>made a box hanging calendar that can be paired with another gift. She used scraps from a card to make the box and some previously used ribbon to complete her project. <br />

<span style="text-align: center;"><b><a href="http://www.shezigzags.blogspot.ca/">Nicole</a></b> used some old papers and stamps for this layout. Her stamps aren't always her "go to" accessory when she's scrapbooking, so this was out of the ordinary for her. Both the tag and the cheesin' phrase are stamped and cut out to create an adorable embellishment!</span><br />

And our last Designer for this challenge is our Guest Designer, <b><a href="http://lifeatthebeach51.blogspot.ca/2013/10/hello-pumpkin-2.html">Sandi</a></b>. Sandi won our Creatures challenge a few weeks ago and is back this challenge with another gorgeous creation. All the papers in her project are from her scrap pile. The twine was found at a resale shop three years ago and the sentiment was in a drawer with some other odds and ends. She doesn't even own that stamp set anymore!<br />

And, the Design Team has looked over this week's entries and chosen these two fabulous creations for this week's Top 2 pick!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://redoralee.blogspot.ca/2013/11/more-thanks.html"><b>Chana</b></a> wowed us with her patience to "stick" those pearls onto the front of her card. Beautiful! Chana used both some ribbon that has been around her craft stash for awhile and the normally discarded pieces of a punch. Great idea!<br />
<br />

And regular "User" <a href="http://scrapstuffzbystacia.blogspot.ca/2013/11/a-summer-supper-at-twin-kiss.html"><b>Stacia Brandt</b></a> had us in love with her sweet and colorful layout. She pulled those alphabet stickers out of her stash in order to make this masterpiece!<br />

Hello Users!<br />
I love the theme for this challenge...time to use up your sticky stuff!! <br />
We are talking stickers, tape, anything with adhesive!! </div>
<div style="color: #33cc00; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<div>
<br /></div>
***REMEMBER: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</div>
<br />
<div>

<br />
Here is a little inspiration to get you started:<br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://tampatha.wordpress.com/">Tammy</a></b></span> took the challenge literally and not only used adhesive embellishments like the sticky mesh, but counted her glue toward that challenge!

And our Guest Designer this week is <a href="http://ursulauphof.blogspot.ca/2013/10/gd-at-memas-crafts.html"><b>Ursula Uphof</b></a>. Ursula used her hoarded flowers for this pretty little project. They tend to collect in her craft space, since she's taken to making her own with dies and punches. She also used some pretty mesh trim across the middle of her card. Thanks for playing again, Ursula!!<br />

Happy Tuesday, Friends!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
There aren't many crafters who will claim that they don't have miles and piles of scraps in their stash.<br />
Which makes it just perfect that this week's theme is <span style="color: blue;"><b> </b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>SCRAPS, PIECES, ODDS & ENDS. </b></span><b> </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Paper scraps, ribbon scraps, last button, end of the roll....it goes on and on. <br />
<b> </b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="font-weight: bold;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER:
All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A
challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
Please link up using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday October 18, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem!

<a href="http://about-the-paper.blogspot.com/"><b>Michele's</b></a> super sweet card this week uses Pebbles Chips, chipboard pieces that she bought 2 years ago when she started scrapbooking again. She also used an American Crafts sentiment sticker from a book that has been severely under appreciated - only 7 of 58 stickers used so far!<br />

She made this super cute "coffee and friends card" with some old papers that are - can you believe it - between 3 and 7 years old. Now that's digging to the bottom of your scrap pile!<br />

Happy Tuesday! It's doubly happy, since this is one of Tuesday's this month we post a new challenge.<br />
You ready, Users?<br />
<br />
Most of the kids, young and old, have headed back to school now. While days of school work may not be their first interest, I'm sure everyone is excited to see their old friends, as well as making new ones.<br />
<br />
So, this week at Use It Tuesday, we're celebrating <b><span style="color: magenta;"><span style="background-color: white;">FRIENDSHIP</span></span>.</b><br />
<b> </b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="font-weight: bold;">
<span style="color: magenta;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER:
All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A
challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
Please link up using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday September 20, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE</span><b>063</b> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation. <span style="font-style: italic;">(Linking tips are at the bottom of the post!)</span><br />
<div>
<br />
Please
make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday
challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.<br />
<br />
As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!</div>
<br />
The Design Team has some fabulous projects this week:<br />

First up is our newest Use It Tuesday Design Team friend. We recently had to say goodbye to one of our designers, so Michele agreed to step in for the rest of the term. Here's a little bit about <a href="http://about-the-paper.blogspot.com/">Michelle</a>:<br />

Hi, my name is Michele and I live in Salt Lake City, Utah. Stamping,
scrapping and card making give me a much needed crafty break from my job
as an engineer. I like to stamp and craft alongside my 3 year old
daughter. I tend to prefer a more clean and simple style on my cards,
but I like to layer up embellishments on my scrapbook layouts too. When
I’m not crafting, I like to ski and read, and hangout with my husband
and daughter. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://about-the-paper.blogspot.com/"><b>Michele's</b></a> project this week is an eye catching "Best of Friends" card using one of the "dozens" of My Mind's Eye die cut titles in her stash. This particular title is 2 years old. Great to have you here, Michele!<br />

<br />
<a href="http://aqyera.blogspot.ca/2013/08/inkadinkado-brayered-meadow.html"><b>Alicia</b></a> won our un-inked Stamp challenge a few weeks ago. She made this adorably cute House Mouse decoupage sheet, also including an old SU punch and even older brads! And, in keeping with her win theme from a few weeks ago, she even found an un-inked sentiment! <br />

And <a href="http://onionsandpaper.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/spotty-butterfly.html"><b>Jane</b></a> won one of our challenges a few months ago, but had to delay her Guest DT spot. We're glad she was finally able to join us this week. Jane made this beauty using "everything" hoarded. The K&Co papers are....can you believe it...10 years old!! The sentiments are from a HOTP booklet that has also been around for several years and the silhouette stamp was previously un-inked. <br />

<br />
<div style="font-weight: bold;">

<br />
Let's check out what our Design Team created this week:<br />
<span style="color: blue; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: blue; text-align: center;"><b><a href="http://scrappychick101.blogspot.ca/">Tracy</a></b></span><span style="text-align: center;"> chose to use washi tape on her project. It's been trendy for a couple of years now, which is probably how long she's been collecting it! This tape is one of the first rolls she purchased about 2 years ago. </span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://www.jlfbarnes.blogspot.com/">Jessica B</a></b></span> used doilies and enamel dots on her "trendy" layout. This is a trend that has really "stuck" with Jessica; readers of her blog will know that she's in love with them! The large dot paper is also about a year old and the striped paper is a couple of years old. The real winner is that photo, which has been sitting in the "must scrap" pile since 2007!<br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://tampatha.wordpress.com/">Tammy</a></b></span>'s trend is the chalkboard look. The Designer Paper is from her stash box and has been around for awhile. The stamp she got a couple of years ago, as well as the star punch. She also found some white ink and white embossing powder in her stash that helped to complete the look. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
We here at Use It Tuesday just love un-inked stamp week. Not only do we get to see the beautiful variety of projects out there, but we craft happily knowing that many pieces of un-inked rubber are finally feeling the love!<br />
<br />
The Inlinz froggy didn't waste anytime finding our winner this week and <span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://aqyera.blogspot.ca/2013/08/inkadinkado-brayered-meadow.html">Alicia</a></b></span> was our winner! We love Alicia's brayered background, but we also love those beautiful wheat stamps she inked for the first time. </div>

Happy Tuesday, Users!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<br />
Use It Tuesday is here every two weeks for the purpose of helping you use your stash. I'm sure our Design Team are not the only ones who have too much craft stuff hidden away here and there. There are probably a few products (or pictures?) in your craft stash that have been there for quite awhile.<br />
And every time you look at it you think...<br />
Why did I buy that ?<br />
Why did I buy that many!!<br />
Or, WHY did I let my friends take pictures when I did THAT! <br />
<br />
Pull 'em out, time to Use them. This week we're playing <br />
<b><span style="color: blue;">What Was I Thinking!!</span></b><br />
<br />
<div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
We're looking to see your lapse in logic on our Use It Tuesday site using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday August 2, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE</span><b>060</b> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation. <span style="font-style: italic;">(Linking tips are at the bottom of the post!)</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
Please make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.<br />
<br />
As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!</div>
<br />
Let's check out the great things our Design Team regret: <br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://brensheviapapermemories.blogspot.com/">Brenshevia </a></b></span>bought this paper pack about 2 years ago, finding it adorable. But then just couldn't find the right mojo needed to make it work for her projects. She finally tackled it today, along with some three year old pictures of her grandson. What a cutie pie!<br />

What could be more representative of a birthday than Birthday Candles. And <span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://creationsfromthecardcave.blogspot.ca/2013/07/ten-candles-on-card.html">Beth C</a></b></span> put 10 glittery candle creations on her beautiful birthday card, plus used up some buttons from an old sweater. We loved it!<br />

At first glance, it doesn't seem like a birthday themed layout, but Charity documented a visit with family on her birthday. Can you believe the trim is upholstery material and is over 8 years old!?!</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Tuesday, Users!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
On Sunday we announced our brand new Design Team for the next six months. They're anxious to get going, so without further delay, I introduce our next challenge...<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>BIRTHDAYS!!</b></span><br />
<br />
Our challenge schedule this year was a bit too late for the North American patriotic celebrations this year, so we thought birthdays would be an appropriate enough topic. Plus, don't you always need birthday cards? <br />
<br />
<div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER:
All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A
challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
We're looking to see your bright and sunny entries on our Use It Tuesday site using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday July 19, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE</span><b>059</b> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation. <span style="font-style: italic;">(Linking tips are at the bottom of the post!)</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
Please
make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday
challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.<br />
<br />
As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!</div>
<br />
Alright, are you ready to see what our new Design Team created for you this week? Here we go!<span style="color: #e69138;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: blue;"><a href="http://scrappychick101.blogspot.ca/"><b>Tracy</b></a></span> is up first with her beautiful birthday layout. Tracy found duplicates of some paper in her stash, probably a shopping phase in the early 2000's. She also used a 6-year-old title sticker and some Martha Stewart Crafts stickers that are probably about as old.<br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b><a href="http://errantscraps.blogspot.com/">Jessica A</a></b></span> made some adorable little party favors for us. The ribbon is 4 years old and the stop signs were cut from paper that is over a year old. Plus, the little car crayons were made from re-purposed crayons! How cool is that?!?<br />

And, last challenge marked the sunset on one Design Team term, as the sun rises on another! We're happy to announce our Term 5 team. Once again, you'll be happy to find a few familiar faces and a few new faces to show us their talent over the next six months.<br />

My names is Stephanie, and I live in New Mexico. I am a mom to three
kids - a 5 year old girl, a 3 year old boy, and an almost 2 yo girl. My
days are filled with keeping them happy and safe, teaching online
classes for our local community college, trying to keep the house
presentable, and crafting! I have always liked to craft, but I really
got into scrapbooking three years ago. Before then, my "stash" could fit
in roughly a 1ft by 1ft by 1ft container - including most of my tools.
Now, just my 12x12 papers take up more than that! So, I am here to use
my stash and help others find creative ways to stop hoarding and CREATE! <br />

I'm excited to be back again for another term on the UIT Design Team. I am a hoarder. If they ever did a Hoarders episode for scrapbookers, I
would be on it! I have lots and lots of stuff and never seem to use it
up. It's in shelves, on shelves, on the floor, in the desk, under the
stairs, pretty much every possible place I can cram it into. It is just
never ending. I love being on this DT because it forces me to find and
use what I know I have! I live in Calgary, Alberta Canada (just down
the highway from Heather ;) ) and I do both scrapbooking and
cardmaking. I am also a SMASHer and have about 3 SMASH books on the go
right now. My favorite subject is my 4 yr old son. I love surfing the
net for scrappy ideas and also watching YouTube. When I am not crafting
I enjoy going to movies, camping, traveling and reading.</div>

anything but a morning person; therefore, you'll find me crafting late
at night with coffee in hand. I fell in love with card making and
scrapbooking 4 years ago after taking a job designing for a paper arts
store; however, I've always had a desire to create. Documenting the
details of life is my main goal, and I have a passion to share that with
others. I'm so excited to begin another term with Use It Tuesday, using
all the goodies I have hoarded over the years! I hope to inspire you to
do the same!<br />

Hey! My name is Tracy and I live in Nova Scotia, Canada. I am a newly
wed to my talented husband Sean (a band teacher) and stepmother to 2
beautiful teenage girls, Zoe and Margaret. So you'll find us somewhere
between highland dance classes, piano lessons or volleyball practice
through the week. Rounding out our little family is our crazy pooch Kya.
Aside from paper crafting I am a classical musician playing the french
horn, I love to kayak and with the family we love to watch movies and
geocache. I've been a paper crafter for about 14 years. Although I do a
little of everything, I LOVE to scrapbook. I am excited to be a part of
the Use it Tuesday design team, as I hope it will force me to dig deeper
into my stash. What I love to collect most? Paper and flowers!</div>

I am thrilled to be joining the Use it Tuesday team! I live in Southern
California with my high-school sweetheart turned husband. We recently
adopted a dachshund who has become the center of my scrappy inspiration.
When I am not scrapping pictures of our furbaby, I work on making a
dent on our wedding album (even though it's been two years already,
oops!). I mainly enjoy creating 12x12 layouts although I'll make a card
or altered item once in awhile. Besides being crafty, I enjoy reading,
surfing the web for new creative ideas, and occasionally watching junk
t.v. (I'll admit it!). Looking forward to digging into my ever growing
stash and finally using it!<br />

I am the mother of 2 young adult children and the grandmother of 3
toddlers ages 5, 3 and 9 months. They are the primary subjects of my
pages. On rare occasions I have been known to actually scrap my children
from time to time lol but mostly its the grandbabies. I have been
scrapping since 2007 and it is my favorite way to relax and unwind.
Some people need Calgon to take them away, well I need scrapping! I have
been published several times so that was awesome. I love clean and
simple but I also love shabby chic so I tend to do a mixture of both
sometimes. Thank you for allowing me to share my journey through
pictures with you. <br />

Confession, I'm a crafter. ;) Now that we have that out of the way, I
guess I should say that I am actually a scrapbooking fiend and
typically my subjects are my 4-year-old and 2-year old sons. Most of
those projects get linked up on my blog so
I can enter them into various online challenges - one of my favorites
was always Use It Tuesday because they encouraged me to find ways to
bust through my stash. I hope I can help you find inspiration in the
same way now that I'm on the team! As for other hobbies, well, I
make cards and sometimes do some altered art. Oh? Non-paper crafts?
That's a little harder. The hubs, and I have an on-again-off-again
relationship with road running. We watch a lot of movies and love eating
out. And when I can sneak a second I enjoy long soaks in bubble bath
with a good book. <br />

Hello my name is Jessica B. I have been married for eight years to an
amazing, loving and supportive husband. We have two beautiful
daughters, a four year old and one year old. We currently live in the
Northern Virginia/DC area. We have only lived here a couple short years
and are still exploring the area. We love being tourist on the
weekends. It also gives me a lot of things to scrap about. During the
day, I work full time as an interior designer. I am usually a night owl
and scrap late after my babies have gone to bed. Though 12x12 layouts
are my first love, I do dabble in altered items, mini books and project
life. I started scrapbooking in high school when I returned from a
mission trip. After I created that first album there was no turning
back, I was hooked. I am looking forward to using up my stash of
hoarded supplies on the Use It Tuesday design team. My stash is taking
over multiple closets and cabinets. <br />

Hi Everyone, I'm Valentina and I live in a small city in Italy. I’ve
always loved hobby and crafts and when I discovered cardmaking in 2011
it was love the first sight! I found not only a world of wonderful
papers, creativity, techniques and ideas, but also a virtual community
of REAL friends. I filled a closet with materials that claim to
be used, but I always say I've not enough! It's easy to find excuses for
a bit more of shopping! When I'm not crafting I love to cook for my
husband and my friends and we love to watch food entertainment tv shows.
I also have a real passion for makeup, cosmetics and nail art and love
Youtube tutorials to learn the makeup artists secrets. <br />
<br />

I'm back!! I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada with my husband, our young daughter and two always entertaining cats. I focus on card-making, which I've been into since 2008, but, occasionally I'll spread my crafty wings and dabble in other things, such as 3D projects, digital
scrapbooking, or sewing. Thanks to the arrival of my daughter, traditional scrapbooking now makes its way into my projects now and then. These days, my biggest challenges are using my
quickly accumulating stash and finding time to get into my craft room
with a toddler in the house. Wish me luck!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
That's it for today. Come back Tuesday, July 8th, for our first challenge of the new term.<br />
The Design Team is keyed up and ready to go!!</div>

Happy Tuesday, Users!<br />
<br />
June is almost over. The kids will be out of school and we're all hoping for a FABULOUS summer! This week, we're celebrating that bright star that warms our days with a challenge we call...<br />
<b><span style="color: #f1c232;"><span style="color: #e69138;">BRING ON THE SUNSHINE!</span> </span> </b><br />
<br />
<div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #b45f06;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER:
All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A
challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
We're looking to see your bright and sunny entries on our Use It Tuesday site using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday July 5, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE</span><b>058</b> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation. <span style="font-style: italic;">(Linking tips are at the bottom of the post!)</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
Please
make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday
challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.<br />
<br />
As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!</div>
<br />
This is a special and sad week for us here at Use It Tuesday. Our 2nd challenge in June always marks the end of a Use It Tuesday Design Team term and we will be saying good-bye to some people that have brought us so much joy and sunshine over the past six months. We want to thank those that are moving on for all their efforts and beautiful creations. <span style="color: #e69138;">Thank you for being our sunshine!</span><br />
<br />
Here's what the Design Team has for you this week: <br />

The Use It Tuesday team wants to send a shout-out to one of our members who wasn't feeling much sunshine this week. <b>Tammy</b> lives in an area of Canada that has been heavily hit with flooding this week. Heather also has family in the same area. Both families are okay, but many families have been displaced and the area has experienced much heartbreak over the past week. Some areas will take a long time to recover. While you create your projects, please send a little sunshine their way. They could use it to help dry things out! Here's our first ray of sunshine for them, 16-month-old Claire's first crafty project. The flowers will come again, Calgary. </div>

The Inlinz froggy performed his winners dance and chose <span style="color: purple;"><b><a href="http://visionsofpaper.blogspot.ca/2013/06/lasting-memories-tell-me-story.html">Elizabeth Campau</a></b></span> as our weekly winner. Elizabeth scrapped a great story for her newspaper article from 1999 and used a title sticker from her stash that was over 8 years old.<br />

Welcome back, Users!<br />
<br />
Before we begin with our next challenge, we just want to take a minute to thank each and every one of you who applied on our recent Design Team call. We received so many very talented entries and we truly appreciate your interest.<br />
<br />
Our challenge theme this week is <span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><span style="color: blue;">MASCULINE</span><span style="color: black;">.</span></b></span> With Father's Day coming up in less than a week, we thought it appropriate to celebrate the men in our lives.<br />
However, you don't have to make a Father's Day card...just make it masculine. <br />
<br />
<div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="background-color: white;">***REMEMBER:
All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A
challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used!***</span></span></div>
</div>
<br />
We're looking to see your fabulous entries on our Use It Tuesday site using Inlinkz by <span style="font-weight: bold;">noon EST on Friday June 21, 2013.</span> No blog? No problem! Just use <span style="font-weight: bold;">keyword USE</span><b>057</b> when uploading to an online gallery and leave us a direct link so we can find your creation. <span style="font-style: italic;">(Linking tips are at the bottom of the post!)</span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />
Please
make sure to mention you are playing along with a Use It Tuesday
challenge (a link is great too!) so we know you are participating.<br />
<br />
As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!</div>
<br />
Let's see what the Design Team has created for you this week: <br />
