Darkchami, I forgot about ribbon. I have way too much ribbon. I need to make an effort to use it up.

It's enamel dots for me. There's no way I can use all I have.

Well 6x6 pads and various embellishments. I think the problem is I buy one of something and like it and then I worry about 'running out' so I get a few more and before you know it my stash is overflowing. Then I wonder what made me buy eleventy million flower centers from Prima  |

Those honkin big paper pads that have at least 4 of every pattern. No more of those for me but still can't get rid of the ones I already have.

Everything. When QVC used to have shows (that's a long time ago now), I bought too much of everything. I would see those lovely layouts that Lisa Bearnson's team would make and I guess I hoped I could create something similar. I do not know the last time I stepped foot in Mike's, A.C. Moore or Joanne's and I realize I could not possibly use all of what I already have, not in two lifetimes. I am glad one of my daughters is doing PL scrapping. She occasionally grabs something in my stash to use. It took me a long time to realize that I am not overly creative and clean, simple lines are more my style. I like it all, but I just will not use it all. My days of scrapbooking over-indulgence are finished.

My weakness is paper. I just can't seem to stop buying paper. I go in spurts.

Years ago I was on a brad kick...you know the mini ones. I think I bought 1000 of every color. I still have a ton of them and I do not use them like I use to.
Wood veneers has been my new passion. I have 3 containers full. I am making myself use them every time I scrapbook.
And finally project life stuff. Love it, but I do not NEED anymore.

Definitely paper for me. Followed by stamps - so many I still have yet to use.

Flowers. I have so many dang flowers. Uh yeah, definitely flowers, among other things. But flowers and pattern paper would be at the top of my list. |

Yes, I've overbought a product but not wood veneers. My weakness is PAPER! Mine too. I could probably wallpaper my entire house with my.... ehem..."collection". |

Definitely paper, 12x12, 6x6...just too much paper. I always laugh when someone in our house is looking for paper (for anything) and can't find any.

Yes, I have 17 million "journalling spots". Here's how I use them: 1. Write journalling on "journalling spot" 2. Realize that the "journalling spot" is way too small to hold my journalling 3. Re-write journalling on larger sheet of cardstock, cut it out, embellish it 4. Toss out "journalling spot" You see why I cannot resist them?  I call journaling spots "when & where spots" because that's just about all I can fit on them. It doesn't help that I'm a heavy journaler. I like the details. |

Yep, I seem to be compulsive about thick laser cut diecuts (dusty attic type). I love them!

Another patterned paper over-buyer here. I have recently done a few purges and that's helped a ton. It's nice to be able to get to the paper I want to use without having to move or dig through the stuff I don't want to use.

Definitely paper. I have so much!!! In general I think there are some collections where I overbought without thinking about how I would actually use them/what I would scrap with them. I've gotten much better at thoughtfully purchasing vs. just grabbing up as much as I can because it's so pretty!

I have overbought paper. I love it. I have stacks, especially Disney paper. For most of it, I can look at it and think, I know what pictures I am going to put on this. I just need to get busy.

I might have too much Christmas. That is only because I am too scared to scrap Christmas memories so I just keep buying kits, papers, embellishments, etc every year for the pictures I will "someday" get the courage to scrap. Although I think I have way more than there are actually Christmas pictures to match up too...

Now I mainly digital scrapbook I look in my scrap room and know I over bought on way too many things - patterned paper top of the list, closely followed by ribbons, prima flowers, brads, buttons, chipboard (shapes and letters), 7 Gypsies stickers, Thickers .... the list is pretty much endless.
