How to make your own Project Life kits from your stash

[@pens_n_pals]

Great to see your thought process on how you decide to put your kits together. Perfect for making sure you use up those items in your stash that you might otherwise keep overlooking as not being suitable for the layout you are currently working on.

[@dearlydee]

+Julie Donovan Frankly, my whole stash gets overlooked! I made sure to add things I LOVE so I use them, rather than continue to hoard! Thanks for watching!

[@kimdaniel4539]

Love your process of putting everything together. Great how you showed that any piece could be the starting point for a lot.

[@dearlydee]

+Kim Daniel Thanks. I had so much fun. Have you ever tried putting your own together?

[@CreateCraftRepeat]

Oh my gosh! I'm literally making DIY kits right now...how awesome! Myself and a few Scrappy friends are planning to do an auction with them for hurricane Harvey relief. I have some friends in ministry who's entire congregation was effected. Your kits are so beautiful!!!

[@dearlydee]

+Create Craft Repeat What an amazing idea! I wish you all the best, the devastation happening at the moment is unbelievable.

[@sharonbessell6391]

What a fantastic idea. Looking forward to see what you do with them!

[@dearlydee]

+Sharon Bessell Better check out tomorrow's PL video then! 😉

[@leighannoconnor9474]

Love the kits you came up with! Can't wait to see what you do with them :)

[@dearlydee]

+Leighann O'Connor Thanks! Me too! First one's up tomorrow!

[@rochellebarnes3560]

That was really inspiring to watch. I mainly do 12x12 layouts but do like to make my own kits. I always follow the same formula for putting them together, but after watching you start with a different inspiration piece, I am going try that too.

[@dearlydee]

+Rochelle Barnes Thank you! As I was going through my stash, different bits I had forgotten about just caught my eye. I wanted to make sure I used them!

[@brendawetzelgrubbs4743]

I am “feeling a bit poorly” and have been trying to find things I can do in front of the TV while recovering. These stash kits are the perfect thing! Thank you!!

[@dearlydee]

Aww that's no good to hear Brenda. I hope you feel better soon but I'm glad you can find some inspiration from on the couch. Take care friend 😘

[@secondesnature]

Hi. I made once a scrapbook kit with my stash but never thought of doing it for project life and its totally a great idea! Thank you 🤗

[@dearlydee]

I'm sure it'll work just as well for PL as it does for your scrapbook kits! I loved doing it and I'm sure you will too!

[@CreatingWonderland]

That is FANTASTIC!!!! Love!!

[@dearlydee]

Thank you! If you enjoyed this, there are even more stash busting tips in my "Not Leftovers Again" class at Big Picture Classes 😉

[@CreatingWonderland]

Dearly Dee where?! I need!! She says as she orders more SC supplies because there’s a closeout sale...

[@dearlydee]

[@susanbrochu2173]

This was so fun to watch! I like that you started each kit with a different type of supply. I make kits all the time for layouts but I've never made one for Project Life. You've definitely gotten me interested in giving it a try!

[@dearlydee]

+Susan Brochu Do try! So much fun! Just finished using one and it was awesome! Will definitely be making more soon.

[@kiraness4714]

Great video! Love all your kits.

[@dearlydee]

Thanks!

[@dearlydee]

+Kira Ness Thank you!

[@naomicooper8548]

What a great idea!

[@dearlydee]

😘

[@geanetteandrea]

Sooooo fun! Gonna go take my sweet pup for a walk and then makes some kits .....thank you!!

[@dearlydee]

Yay! It's SO much more fun than I thought it was going to be! Enjoy your walk and then enjoy your crafty time! Sounds like a perfect plan to me!

[@stormyswann6177]

Thank you. Helps o hear your thought process

[@dearlydee]

You are so welcome

[@trystaninthekitchen4982]

Really cool, can’t wait to see you use them!

[@dearlydee]

Thanks. I’ve used all of these kits now in various PL weeks. Might be time to make some more!

[@trystaninthekitchen4982]

dearly dee did you make videos for those pages?

[@dearlydee]

Yep. These were all a while ago but here are the ones I can find: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYq0cmqPoMaon8k kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnrQoZKXdteaoac kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZDammiMaNeBi8k kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4Sxh3uXpJWkeMU

[@clotheslinecraftscaroline2446]

Really enjoyed watching you put these kits together. X

[@dearlydee]

Thank you!

[@stefferoosky]

Love this!

[@dearlydee]

😘

[@lisabullock5864]

So glad you shared this dee. I was trying to do some too and I struggled to find any videos specific to project life. The odd one I did find and most of the scrapbooking ones made it look complicated. Yours was like your style - streamlined and coordinated lol

[@dearlydee]

+Lisa Bullock I tried to keep it as uncomplicated as possible! Give it a go, it was heaps of fun and I used a kit today and it was perfect!

[@laurawatkins7328]

Wow loved this video

[@dearlydee]

+Laura Watkins Thanks!

[@shellyhornbostel5932]

Love this Dee!! I love the whole idea of kits from your stash, and I also love the pieces you put together. Great inspiration! 😍

[@dearlydee]

+shelly hornbostel I thought it was going to be a bit of a drag but I LOVED IT! I'm going to fully encourage you to give it a try!

[@andotherlovelies1570]

Yay! So fun to watch you do this! Thanks for making this video for us 💕

[@dearlydee]

+andotherlovelies Thank you SO much!

[@tracyzook857]

Nice little kits! Don't do PL anymore but these could be starter kits to add to 12x12 pp later. But really love how tidy these are in those see through pouches. May have to find something like that as one of my cats eats ziploc type baggies. Could make small thematic kits for crops also for scrapping a random selection of events.

[@dearlydee]

You could easily adapt the same sort of thing for 12x12 or TN or any project your could think of! These are all left-over kit bags from SC but I'm sure you could find something similar online. Maybe fabric bags might work better if your cat enjoys the taste of plastic!

[@coleenandal]

Brilliant!!!!

[@dearlydee]

Thanks!

[@samanthadowner4056]

Im new to your channel. Really loving the videos.

[@michelleh.6363]

When you receive your kits do you break them up by color and sort them? Are these left over pieces from kits also? Tfs great reuse of your items...👍💕😎

[@dearlydee]

I probably only break apart kits once or maybe twice a year, otherwise they just stay in a drawer all together. These are kit left-overs or other bits I've collected over the years.

[@kiandra323]

Dee what pocket pages do you use for stamp storage, they look great and easy to find?

[@dearlydee]

+Sandra Scott Avery Elle Stamp Storage Pockets. I love them!

[@thegabytube]

Great idea! Would you please share the size of the bags? I can order some at amazon because I dont currently subscribe to sc

[@dearlydee]

They fit 6x8 papers in them but if you’re ordering some, just get a size that suits the supplies you use the most 😉

[@seemownay]

Love all four kits and how each one of them started with a different spark. Are you actually getting to use them? I'm always so excited to create these stash kits for myself only to realize I don't have time to use them if I want to keep using those kits that come into my house every month. Sigh. It's a struggle. 😬😂

[@dearlydee]

Yep, totally using them! Posted a video today using my first one! It can be a struggle to keep up with all the paper goodness that comes into this house too. You should see the huge box of Studio Calico sale stuff that arrived today. I'm not sure I'll ever use it!

[@deliacumoletti6549]

Love watching your videos how much do you charge for a kit

[@dearlydee]

Thank you! I don't sell these, they are just to encourage me to use my stash more.

[@brendagarcia4.]

🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@dearlydee]

😘

[@jarkaef7044]

I was thinking about it, but I haven´t got enough alpha stickers :-D that´s good, now I know what to (and not to) buy :-D

[@dearlydee]

+Jarka Ef 😂 you do! You could always use alpha stamps too. I still use other things outside of the kits, so you wouldn't need to include alphas in all of them.

[@HeidiWruck]

No couldn't tell at all 😂😂😁😁

[@ScrappingPosh]

now you can start your own kit club lol

[@dearlydee]

+Scrapping Posh I certainly have enough supplies! 😂😂😂
