If you had to place your final scrapbook order what are you getting?
Honestly I might have enough to go a year without making another order, but as I'm building a final cart for a year. I haven't scrapped a ton, but making some changes and want to get back into setting time aside to be creative and have fun with my pages again. And less like it's a journaled photo album.
Adhesive
-Dry
-Wet
-Scor-Tape
Page Protectors
-Pocket Pages (or learn to use that Fuse Tool I bought soooo long ago)
Cardstock
-White
-Basics
Dies/Stamps
-Labels
-Alphas
-Multi-Use
Stickers
-Alphas in ROYGBIV
Tools
-New Tim Scissors
-Blade Refills for Tim Trimmer
-Watercolor Brushes
-Silhouette Mats
-Silhouette Blade
-Magic Mat for Spellbinders
Other
-Simple Stories Travel Collection
-Anything else new I "have to have" within budget/reason
I feel like I have plenty of patterned paper. I'm downsizing my stash at the same time. Will have a Silhouette, die cutting machine, and hot foil machine.
I won't have anymore 6x6 paper pads. *any that I love will get trimmed to 4x6 for my pocket page storage*
I use a lot of labels. Tiny die cuts. Alpha stickers. on my pages. I have a good selection of inks. Between all the Oxides and a good assortment of Concord & 9th.

for ME and the way I scrap?
page protectors
photo squares - so many photo squares
a fine line glue
Xyron X refills
foam squares/dots
trimmer blades
white and black cardstock and good selection of coloured cardstock in a wide range of colours
I have a Cricut Expression with cartridges and SCAL so with a bit of effort, I can make alphas and die cuts and layered embellishments myself if I don't already have what I need/want. I do have a QK handtool and Gemini Jr for the dies I already own and there's really not much on my wishlist there. I have stamps and alcohol markers and more than enough patterned paper
And tbh - I think that's why I really haven't been shopping much for scrappy stuff and the new releases really haven't been catching my attention...there's really not a lot that's truly new and different out there (I've been scrapping for 22 years now) and while I'm a fairly prolific scrapper, I don't use a ton of product on my layouts so a little goes a long way.
Good luck with your order! And welcome back to creating more!

tape for my ATG. scissors (all seven pairs of my scissors are currently missing...) blades for my paper trimmer Pilot G-2 pens (for journaling) cardstock in the colors I use the most (navy, red, dark green, dark brown and of course black, white, cream and gray.) Silhouette mats because they don't stay sticky very long and my attempts to re-stick them did not work. Other than that I don't need a lot except paper on my layouts, but I probably have enough to last forever already so I don't need to stock up  |

I’d order a big bottle of Bearly Art glue, a lot of foam tape, white cardstock, and matte photo paper (to print journaling). I’ve no desire to play alpha sticker scrabble so I don’t buy alphas anymore. If they’re packaged with a kit I’ll use them. Otherwise I use my cutter.
Given your goal, consider what creativity looks like to you and how product fits in to meet that goal. Do you need ephemera? If so what kind (artsy, cute, vintage, etc.)? What do you reach for in your “go to” kit? I’d also suggest allowing yourself a bit of flexibility if you’re rediscovering the creative part of the hobby. You might find yourself desiring different products if your style changes.

I'm pretty set with supplies & tools plus I have 2 pre-orders scheduled to be delivered by the end of July. But if I were placing an order to cover my needs for a year, I would get: - 50 pack of white cardstock
- ATG tape refills - 6 would probably do it
- Foam tape - one of those large rolls
- Staz-on type stamp pad with black ink
- CM paper trimmer supplies (cutting blade and strips)
- Photo printing supplies (2 ink cartridges, 3 packs of photo paper

Truth be told, I could easily never make another purchase in my life, and still have more than enough digital products to last several lifetimes. Mind you, that doesn't stop me from buying new stuff if it really takes my fancy.
If I had to make one last purchase, I would clear out my wish lists on all of the digital stores, then stock up on kits that were my favourite colour schemes, plus a heap more templates tfrom Katie Pertiet's store, plus all the Photoshop Styles that I like, and lastly lots of CU products so that I could make my own papers and embellishments in the future.

BSideCrafterSide note regarding the Fuse tool. I was like you, didn't try it for years. Then I started some heritage albums and wanted to secure small items, like my grandfathers's draft card. My tip is to let it heat a LONG time, then go really slowly. Practice on a damaged page protector before trying on your layout.

If I were to be realistic in regards to my actual needs, then I would just buy adhesives, because goodness knows I have enough supplies packed away to last me for years!
But if I were to give in and add some papers and embellishments then I would look for some wintery items, because that might be the one area in which I am actually lacking.

Like others have said, I have enough supplies (paper and embellishments) to last for years. But there are a few things I would have to replenish:
* Adhesive runner - current favorite is Tombow Mono Air Touch Glue Tape
* Glue - I need to find a new one
* CM white strap-hinge pages
* Textured Cardstock - White, Black, Red, Blue (I don't know why I run out of red and blue, but I do)
* Silhouette Mats
Plus whatever 49 & Market and Vicki Boutin products are in the works that I will find irresistible.

My last scrapbook order ever? I have been scrapbooking since the late 90's so honestly at this point I have enough patterned paper and embellishments to scrapbook for the rest of my life. I would stock up on:
White smooth cardstock
Sakura pens (they last a long time without drying up)
Scor-tape and mounting squares adhesive (they last a long time)
Page Protectors (I have extra albums that are empty)
Cutting mats for my Big Shot and Cricut
Extra cutting blades for my Cricut and my paper trimmer

I think I waited 20 minutes last time I used mine and the seam ended up coming apart. |

I have albums, page protectors, card stock, patterned papers, adhesives, stamps, inks, dies, other tools, and everything I need to scrapbook for the rest of my life. There is only one thing I would truly need to stock up on:
Printer ink cartridges.
Refill inks for my Copics would help, too.

For a year, I would likely need to purchase:
2 albums
Black Cardstock
Kraft Cardstock
Enamel Dots
Double Sided Tape
Foam squares/tape
I honestly don't think I would need to buy anything else. I could very easily go on a freeze and would like to, but I have serious FOMO when it comes to missing out on collections for a whole year. I like the idea of working within my stash, but have just not had the willpower to do so.

I think I waited 20 minutes last time I used mine and the seam ended up coming apart. At least that long. Then I go slowly and sometimes go over it again. I often do the back side after the first. It's a fine line between getting a solid seam and melting through! |

For my Final order I would not need much. Adhesive Albums page protectors - 12x12 and pocket page trimmer blades cricut blades and mats white cardstock neutral cardstocks for making titles and such. And that is it. I have so much paper, and embellishments that I don't need to buy for a very long time. If ever lol. I could very easily go on a freeze and would like to, but I have serious FOMO when it comes to missing out on collections for a whole year. I like the idea of working within my stash, but have just not had the willpower to do so. This is me to a T. I like the idea of a good freeze, but I can never stick to it. |

That is, of course in addition to ordering all of the ones that are available now...
