I've probably overbought a bit of everything, but, my PAPER could sink a ship.

Alphabet dies! I just can't resist. I even have a duplicate of one font! Guess I must have really liked that one!

Lately it's been project life cards. I've even split the core kits up and I still have way to many cards to ever use up.

I'veoverbought things because of a sale or something like that. Such as I have tons of flowers and I used to use them all the time. Now I don't use them nearly as often.

I will confess that I am also a Paper 'Ho'arder. If I find a piece of paper that I like, I can't just buy 1 or 2 - I have to have at least 3-4 so I will have one to save for later . . .

Ugh. I need to add a couple things to my list.
I can't stop buying:
*Gemstone stickers. I ALMOST NEVER USE THEM but I think they're so pretty I can't stop hoarding them anyway!
*Sequins. I limited myself to one of those plastic divider boxes. I now have two. I'm pretty determined not to expand the collection any more because I will never use the amount of sequins I own in two lifetimes. Or more. Even if I decided to sew sequins to every dress I own.
*Did I mention glitter? I own more than any one person should, and I rarely use it.
SOMEONE MAKE ME STOP.

Everything!!! Recently though, it's been PL cards. I have way more than I'll ever use & that's counting only the ones that I really like! I have slowed down buying pattern paper, only because I'm running of of room... no dedicated scrap space...I have to store it all in my bedroom!

Sigh. It's thickers for me. I don't even do full page LO's anymore, only PL format so the full size thickers don't work on many of them. I've been thinking about purging them. Anyone want them?

Justcindy, LOVE that icicle light story!!!
My biggest over-purchase is my big sequin stash, from which I proudly used 7 sequins on a card last week... Seriously, I went on some kind of crazy sequin binge while I was recuperating from surgery in the spring and was on painkillers (yup, that's what made me do it). I bought up every Studio Calico, Lawn Fawn and Doodlebug set. And I'm talking the big individual Doodlebug jars not the minis. By the time all my orders arrived, I was off the the stronger meds and was so embarresed trying to make space for them all in my stash. PayPal makes it too easy to over shop!
My weakness is that once I purchase one or two of a large set, I just "have" to complete my collection. Especially with anything Doodlebug (as aforementioned).
I'm afraid I have started down this slippery slope with Distress Markers, as I purchased 3 last week, a 5-PC pack yesterday and just took a break from filling my shopping cart with them by heading over here.
And then there's the Thickers and PL cards...and I don't even do PL!

You might get swamped with that question! I love my Thickers (the only place I buy them is Marshall's), but my problem is I love alphabet stickers in general, so I tend to overbuy, BUT I really enjoy having a variety so they can match my layouts. I don't think I can stop myself from buying alphabet stickers. |

I may have overbought brads & eyelets. But I don't feel too bad about it because they don't seem to be as much in abundance as they once were in stores, etc.

Raw chipboard, brads, grommets and stickers. I will probably use everything up eventually except the grommets. I will have to think of a way to use them up.
