Earlier this year, a Pea (I can't remember her name) mentioned that she keeps the branding strips of all the paper she uses in a year so she can tell if she's using up her stash or not. I thought that was a great idea! I have a good stash, and it sometimes feels as if it's not being used up - so I started keeping the branding strips off any 12x12 paper I used. Kept them in a jar, and here's what the jar looks like today -  I'm so happy to see that I've used up this many sheets of 12x12 paper! If you can guess how many branding strips are in the jar (without going over), I'll send you this:  Carta Bella Flower Garden puffy stickers! Once I count the strips, I'm going to throw them away and start a new jar for 2022. |

Do you have any idea how many are in the jar? 😀 I’ll guess 122. I need to collect all mine. I tend to stash them off to the side while I’m busy and then forget to add them in later. My brain sometimes…I swear there are days I’m shocked that I can remember how scissors work! 😂 |

How fun!
Do you ladies only keep branding strips from 12x12, or 6x6 (or 6x8) papers too? Thinking of doing this in 2022!

Some of my old 6x6 pads don’t have any, and some of the cheaper card stock or papers in a DCVW pad don’t either (I don’t have any of those anymore). |

Woohoo! Lucky guess!
That’s a lot of used up paper, I plan to save my strips too this year.
I will PM my address. Thanks so much!
