Scrappy Confessions - It's okay, we won't judge.

I LOVE you guys!!! Original Sizzix, I have 2 because I saw one at a yard sale for only $10 and, well, you can't pass That up! And I have two side kicks because I saw one at a yard sale for only $3 and, well, you know the rest! And so it goes with the rest of my scrap room! So much stuff! And I love it all!!!

I feel like all my pages look the same.

Either too linear and "same," or "messy" in the same way. It's like I can't make layouts that look original anymore. I still like them, but I almost feel bored with them.

I always have my eye open for scrap supplies where ever I go. Especially on sale at M's or at the Dollar Tree. But can't bear to buy clothes for myself. Ugh.

I bought all the CTMH ink pads that were available about 3 years ago, and most are still sealed.

I watch videos about Scrapbooking and papercrafting.

I get inspired to make something.

I shop for all the necessary supplies.

They come in the mail.

I forget what I was planning to do with them and where I saw the video.

I've done this about 6 times.

I feel like we should do scrapper-shaming like the dog-shaming pictures.

I have learned I like to do layouts that look like I threw up flowers or "stuff" on a page. Yup I confess to big, crowded pages! Love them and wouldn't have them any other way. This is why I need so much stuff, right?

I love this thread. I'm able to confess to people who won't roll their eyes!

I havn't finished my daughter's pre-school scrapbook. She is in second grade!
I havn't finished my other daughter's pre-school scrapbook. She is in kindergarten!

I've made lots of other pages for their regular scrapbooks and the family vacation one but I just can't finish up the pre-school ones. I think it's my way of denying that they aren't little pre-schooolers anymore. 

Threegirls and retrofunscrapper -I'll confess that my daughter's birth to 1 album isn't finished. She's 8...

Oh and another confession...my scrapping style is stuck in 2010. But that's what I like and I'm not moving! Plus my hoard of papers and embellishments looks great on my "2010 style" layouts

Oh!!!!! Pictures??

I have probably 100 rolls of washi tape. Never cut a millimetre of it. (That isn't very much!) I like my stuff to look brand new!

You know when Prima started putting like 4 flowers in a package and they became all fancy? Yeah, neither do I but one day they did and I started buying that way instead of bottles. Do you know I have never, ever opened a package let alone used ONE flower? I did use a couple of the Got Flowers from the bottles but never a new one.

Bazzill? I bought 500 sheets or so of it when it was on sale at Michaels. How many sheets have been used? Um ever? None as of yet.

The Cricut still NiB yeah that's a bit of an issue right there. The cartridges are all still NiP too in the back of my closet completely inaccessible.

Paper Trey Ink dies, stamps and inks? I have let's say a fair collection. Not a single stamp has ever been used. No die has ever cut anything out and all the inks and reinkers are just as they were. New.

Copic markers? All 300000000000 of them that I had to have before the price went up a couple of years ago? Yeah. New. It's ok.

I like to buy school themed items but I avoid making school themed layouts... My oldest is in 4th grade, I have one "first day of school" layout finished. I have 4 kids... Something about using their school pictures (and class pictures which are not all the same size, depending on the photographer and the school year) intimidates me.

I have two dressers in my scrapbook room. Both have 3 drawers. At least 4 of the 6 drawers are stuffed full of kid art work, memorabilia, papers, notices, newsletters, drawings etc. I can not figure out how to incorporate it into a layout and the pile grows daily...

I only own about 10 rolls of washi tape.


I own a Cinch. I used it for December Daily in 2010 and haven't gotten it out of the box since...

I don't like letter stickers.

Take a number babe! I have so many people in line it's incredible LOL. I can't find anyone here who wants to scrap with me. I have all this stuff and no one who wants to scrap together! How cruel is that?

ooh, I like that paper! My local Walmarts never have anything that good in the (sad, little) craft section!! That paper pad ticks my 'DCWV-matching-paper-so-I-don't-have-to' boxes... although if I was truthful, I would also have to say it also ticks my 'don't-have-any-need-for-it-at-all-so-it-would-just-sit-around' boxes, too!! lol!! (that almost never stops me from buying paper, though...)

ETA: forgot to say, if you used it already, then good for you! who cares where you got it from as long as you like it??

I'll join you on that couch...and that paper is cute - I wonder if my WM has it
