Dies. I have no machine and no patience so I won't ever succumb to die cutting.
Rubons--I did them when they first came out years ago and they didn't hold up in my albums. So I won't buy them anymore.

Rubons. They never work as well as intended for me. Sequins. I know if I start collecting them, I will want them all. Won't start. Cloth on LO's. Same reason as the sequins. I have a bit of felt. HS Minc. I won't be buying one. Love the foiled look, but have found other ways to achieve it. Not averse to using justjac 's occasionally, but can't justify buying the machine AND the laser printer to use with it.

I have a box full of washi and I'm trying to get off the washi bandwagon.

Painting, misting, stenciling, water-coloring, hand-lettering! I was just thinking about this the other day. I am just getting back on the scrap-wagon after taking a 7 year break. After coming back into the scrap arena a few months ago I have discovered that scrapbooking seems to have gotten a bit too artsy-fartsy for me so I won't fit in the norm, lol. It's ok though. I still love my good ol' basics!

I won't say never but probably won't sew on pages, stencil, watercolor, stamp, paint splatter or mist!

Agreed! I like scrapbooking for the photos, stories and memories. I don't care for all the mixed media stuff, but that's just me

Spray mists, or any multi-media.
Minc, doilies and hand lettering rank up there as well.

Mostly anything that is messy; gelatos, sprays... For many reasons. I'm not artistic and it would look like something was spilled not intentionally placed on the page. The drying time. The messiest I get is using stickles and that is rare. I have to find a safe spot for them to dry.
I've never used eyelets because I was happy with brads. I'm having a hard time with washi. Some that I've purchased is so transparent it looks odd on the page. I've accepted I like ribbon more.
Sewing! I don't know how and don't own a machine.
I didn't know there was a new trend of hand lettering. I mostly do handwriting on my pages. I used to like to do calligraphy, but I wouldn't invest lots of money into trying that technique.

Most messy things. Gelatos, water colors, paints, mists and sprays. And the masks that go with them. I just don't feel like dealing with the clean up.
Nothing I have to buy and store any new machines for. No Minc, no sewing machine. I have a manual die cutting machine, some dies, some embossing folders. It has to be something pretty amazing and versatile to join my collection now.

Like many of you, no mixed media, although I did encourage my 17 and 19 year old girls to art journal last summer. Loved seeing their take on it, but besides an occasional splatter, it's not for me. No Minc, Cameo, Cricut, etc. I bought the Cricut the day they started selling them. I tried to like it, but my big shot has always been the easiest way for me until I got a repetitive motion injury...wahhhh! Now if I want anything for it I must ask someone. In the past they sold a sizzix that plugged in and I couldn't understand why you just didn't crank the handle...now I do! I sew on all my pages, so my sewing machine is my friend. I'm sure there are plenty of other techniques that I'm forgetting.

I will never do the foil thing, templates with gesso/paint, spend more than $5 on planner supplies, stamp, or use one tiny picture with tons of white space.

Wow this actually make me feel better. I never do any of the messy stuff either and if you watch youtube process videos they are always splattering or staining - just not my cup of tea.

The one tiny picture thing is hard for me, too. I just don't get it. Isn't the photo hard to see? LOL! I've always been a multi-photo scrapper so this is one trend I've never been able to embrace.

Never say never... I once said I would NEVER cut a photo into a silhouette...yeah, I did that and made an awesome arty page that ended up published in Somerset Studios Magazine, lol! And I LOVE the page to this day.
But, that being said...I don't care to do the extremely thick media media pages ie Prima style romantic pages. They are lovely, but HOW do you store things like that? I can't imagine they would do well in an album. I do like mixed media sometimes and I love my mists for everything. I am more of a dabbler in mixed media though, as I am too impatient for all the wet layers so dry!

I don't love glitter or shine, so the minc isn't for me, nor are all the color shines and products like that. If any texture, I prefer rough or matte.

I do like most of the mixed media stuff and have tried some of it out w/being reasonably pleased w/the result. But, no doilies, no sewing and no single tiny photo layouts, no buttons, no flair, no sequins (except on cards), no fuse.
Re: one tiny pic layout - Never understood that. I have so many pix and stories that go w/them. Why would I take 12x12 to put a 3x3 pic on it more than one or twice? I'd have 300 albums :*)

Wood veneers. Or flair pins. I just don't like all that lumpy stuff on my pages.

I'm not into "technique" crafting - so no paints, sprays, brushes, resists, embossing, etc. I'm too lazy to be bothered with all that. I'm not a fan of mini albums, chipboard books and the like. I also really dislike naked chipboard and flowers.

The baby in the photo there is now a 12 year old girl! Time sure slips away. Save

We R Memory Keepers alphabet board punch. No matter how many times they say it's easy, I see four or five steps to do what a die or electronic cutting machine does in one step.

Copics. I would have to have them all & am not really interested in taking out a 2nd mortgage to obtain them.
