I have an entire Iris container of my favorite lines/embellishments. Each line has its own container. I have been using Margarita for years and still have over half of it left.

I have another confession. I don't even know all the latest and greatest scrappy things. Especially not paper. There is just too much of it for me to keep on top of it. And because of my ignorance, I buy whatever paper I like. Even the *gasp* Colorbok paper pads at Walmart. Bought this one last night. Already used it & love it.Damn you, LavenderLayoutLady!  I *liked* your post yesterday but resisted clicking on your link. Couldn't help myself today and now I want it. AND I'm going to Walmart later!! You evil, evil woman.  |

I don't blink an eye at spending $60 on scrapbook paper, but can't spend $60 on clothes without developing a rash.  High five! Buying clothes is such a waste of money I could be spending on scrapbook supplies. |

You know how when someone is telling you something you don't want to hear, so you put your fingers in your ears and sing really loud? What's the equivalent for someone posting something you don't want to read? |

*I love stamps. I just calculated that I have over 600 *unused* stamps. Not to count the many that I've used and continue to use.
*I have more enamel dots than an enamel dot factory
*I'm an extremely *clean* crafter. I can't create in mess, nor can I sit in it, so my space is pristine at all times.
*I have a 6'x3' craft corner, and it's too big for me.
*I wish my stash were smaller
*I'm a segregated crafter. There are things allowed on cards that cannot go on layouts, and there are things allowed on canvases that cannot go on cards.
*I watch videos on YouTube and pretend the person is crafting with me.
*I am constantly looking for new, especially art supplies. My ADHD brain wants new and different, but it also can't stand clutter and is super frugal. So I will buy the best of something, and only the best out there, and use it like crazy.

^^^ I totally do both of these!! Katie Scott does her videos in real time, so it's like she's just chatting while she's scrapping!
(as far as buying, I do that part, but not the 'use it like crazy' part... lol!)

ooh, I might have been able to hold out due to the shipping, but now since you threw in the bit about the shipping discount code, I guess I'll have to... just as an experiment, mind you! |

IC that my craft room is a mess. I was working on some ATCs and bent over to get something out of my tool box and accidentally dragged my hair across my work table. A little tag I was working on got swept off somewhere into the clutter. I have no idea where. I can't easily recreate the little tag so I have to stop everything and work on straightening up so I can find the damn thing.

Teehee I have a cropadile, but work better with the hammer I have a Cropodile and a Big Bite and I still use eyelets and a hammer and anywhere hole punch. I actually got some extra ones when Michaels was clearing out MM ones. So I have a few. The Big Bite is pink too (had to be pink of course) and the legs for it are "somewhere" in my bedroom. Yes. Somewhere. The Cropdile is still NIP. Never been opened. Nope. I don't know where it is. Out in the garage maybe? Don't care. I also have a trillion eyelets. I don't like the bigger ones but love <3 the little ones a LOT! |

I have a nice space, unproperly utilized because it's not the space I dream of. I have decided "if you can't have the one you love, love the one you have." I have so many supplies and much of it not used. I know there are a mulitiple of ways to use one product. I am getting off my high horse and going for it. Enough is enough!

I have lists of stories I want to scrap, a large walk in closet filled to the brim with supplies and I haven't really scrapped since last spring......in my defense, I have been really busy with some pretty life altering stuff but even so.....

^^^^^ aliwinn: hey, at least you have the list of stories you want to scrap, and supplies-- I don't scrap very often either, but I figure 'scrappy thinking' counts almost as much as actual scrapping!! Hopefully your life-altering stuff will allow you some time to scrap soon. |

*I craft all the time, but don't finish as much as I plan. I have so many plans in my head, and so many supplies to complete them, but I just don't. I click around the internet instead.
*The scope of a large craft project paralyzes me. (e.g. we went to Disney World for our 10 year wedding anniversary. The ENTIRE trip I was excited to scrap it. We get home and I see all the pictures and I totally freak out. Our 12 year anniversary is on 2/10. I have completed 3 pages of this album)

AerynK, I totally know how you feel about large projects! we went on a two week vacation last summer, I took over 2000 photos, and I haven't printed ONE of them. I've been buying supplies for the mini album I want to make, but that's as far as I've gotten. I have 'perfectionist paralysis' about it, I guess!! I also seem to lose interest in things before they're finished- even a 2-page layout can be mostly finished and only need the finishing embellishments, journaling, or whatever, and it can sit like that for months (if not longer).

Let's see...
I have stamps GALORE and rarely use them
I stalk UPS & USPS and get excited when I receive scrap goodies I purchased in the mail
I was hell-bent on making my own colored mists, hunted all over town for the 2 0z bottles, and after creating several mists, rarely if ever use them.
Seeing all my goodies around me makes me soooo happy!
When I get a new package/pad of paper I love to sniff it, lol

Ok, I can't believe I'm admitting this. I started "scrapbooking" in 2003 when I was pregnant with my first son. Maybe I should clarify, I've been shopping for scrapbooking stuff since 2003 (I could open a good size store with my supplies) but I've made one page since starting....yes that is correct.....ONE page. I have done 2 very small 6X6 albums, one for my mom, and one for my friend....but for myself ONE page....lol In my defense, I've had 4 kids and they take up a lot of my scrapping time....just not my shopping for scrapping supplies time. And I have used my supplies for other crafts I have done. I have a wishblade and a cameo still in the box, never been opened. I hope to remedy this all soon, I have cabinets that just need some kind of top and then I'll move my supplies into my own space. Maybe then I will get to do some pages. I think I'm just overwhelmed and scared to start now that I have all this stuff....but I will get there I'm sure. So do I win?  Edited to Add: Yes, that is why my name is Procrastiscrap...fitting huh |
