I struggle with this issue as well. I always worry that I'll want to use the supplies for something later. Slowly grasping the concept that now is better and I should just use my supplies. There will always be more for later. I am working on thinking this way, too. I'm always afraid I'm going to mess up the paper! I'm slowly changing the way I think, though. I've been telling myself that using the paper is another way of keeping it all to myself, except now I get to see some awesome creations with it (be it scrapbooking/other paper crafts), and if I mess up and I REALLY want that same paper/embellishment badly enough, I can probably find the same one on eBay or elsewhere. If it's too expensive and I don't want to buy it at the price it's up for, then I probably didn't want it as badly as I thought I did!  |

I am terrified to cut into a piece of paper. It might kill me. I would rather make a layout using a ton of scraps instead LOL. I have to get over this fear of cutting up pretty paper. My stash is drowning me. I just don't want to do it! Elannah |

I just threw a 12 x 12 sheet in the trash. Yeah, I did it. I was trying to "make it work" and it annoyed me so much that I balled it up and threw it out.
Man, that felt good.
Yes, I was one who hoarded product. I'm getting over it. Finally.

I had a few collections I felt that way about. Remember MME's Stella and Rose? I loved that line so much. Still do. I remember that every time I used a few pieces I would find myself back at Archiver's replenishing my stash. I held onto it for years I loved it so. But like you I had to finally ask myself what I was saving it for. I think I used the last of it up last year sometime.

Hi my name is Kristen and I have this problem. This ^^, quite very exactly.  I have made progress in the last couple of years, largely on account of wanting more collections and needing to justify such by using what I have  . But I will admit it-it still hurts! I especially mourn when I use one side of a double-sided when I LOVE the other side more. It does help to talk about it, though. LOL |
