This is SO perfect in its timing! MY LSS is having a Yard sale and I am going to put stuff in this week... and now I have good parameters of how to decide what to sell!!!

Just love you! I so say those 2 things all the time and also add that I wish Clean Sweep would come to the house, the entire house that is to include all of my scrapping stash. I so feel like my scrapping stash has taken over my house and then some! Thanks so much for the tips....
I love donating to the Girl Scouts since my dd is in a troop this year and they are always doing crafts!!
Have an awesome day -

YAY! I'm so glad that some of you are doing this challenge--I am going to take my own advice and get in there and PURGE. Although I am good at ridding myself of some of the junk, I still have quite a big stash of crap...I mean treasures. When I was at Jeanette's in April, she had only three (THREE!) vertical files of patterned paper--wow. What an inspiration!
: )
I'll check in later! Wish me luck! xoxo.

Oh sweetie--this is PERFECT TIMING! : ) And whatever doesn't sell, donate to a good cause like the ones I mentioned on the blog. There is no reason to bring the no longer neededs back to the scene of the crime. : )

i just did a HUGE purge last weekend - honestly i was sickened by my own gluttony. ick. i probably pulled like 1000 bucks worth of paper out of my stash. i have one little holder left with my faves, and one with my cardstock. the best part is that i brought all the leftovers to a women's shelter (with a bunch of old stickers, stamps, and stuff) and they asked me if i'd volunteer to do a craft activity/class once a week. so of course i said 'yes!' even though it had never occurred to me. so i'm gonna do an art journal type of thing with them b/c so many of the women have lots of memories but unfortunately very few pictures, if any. and then i found a grocery store that donated a ton of old disposable cameras that will expire in a few months and agreed to process them for free (32 of them!). so i'm giving the ladies all photo homework too. i have to get my police check done but after that i can give it a go. isn't that the craziest thing? i certainly never meant to post this here, i wasn't even going to put it on my blog but when i saw your challenge i just had to share because you never now what can happen when you simplify your own life, and pay it forward....crazy huh!

This is amazing--and I am SOOOOOO glad that you shared it with us. Please keep me up-to-date about your class...I'm sure it will be a hit! : )
Huge hugs. xoxo.

I think I inspired myself--since posting this challenge I have gotten rid of about 12 inches of paper alone. Go Becca Go!
