Way back in the day, I coveted the Quickutz Magpie Nesting Storage system.I never bought it because I couldn't justify the price when I had something like 3 single dies at the time. I never did buy alphabets from QK, so I guess it's good that I didn't buy it after all. What did you covet and miss? |

I did buy the magpie storage system. I really like it, but I probably should get rid of it since I have a silhouette now. In fact I should sell my remaining QK alphas and shapes.

What did you covet and miss? I killed my Sizzix sidekick machine trying to make a "sandwich". There's a store in my town that has OLD SB stuff like Making Memories! They have the Ellison tag a long machine that is identical, and I think I'm going to get it tomorrow. It's been clearanced for a long time. With my luck it will be gone.  I have a BAD tendency of overthinking my purchases. Would I use the entire collection? Do I go camping enough to buy that paper? Are those embellishments too much? Is that the right color scheme? I'm trying to get over it, because then I have regrets! ETA: The Cosmo Cricket camping line. I should have bought everything! |

I still like to use my Quickutz alphabets  I have them stored in zipper binders, in photo slide sleeves. They're perfectly sized for many things I do I loved and hoarded Making Memories rub on alphabets. I still have several packs that haven't been opened yet even. They were and still are my favorite! |

I just went through all of my paper, I think I have every sheet Cosmo Cricket produced. Love that Mr Campy line so much though. The little chocolate and marshmallow chipboard! |

Do your rub ons still work? I had several Basic Grey packs I had to toss because they wouldn't transfer. It makes me laugh to see the rub ons coming out with new lines. What goes around always comes back. |

The starburst circle punch that Shimelle uses. I think it was a Fiskars one? Martha Stewart has one, but it isn't the same.

I love my Quickutz alphabets. I wish more the same style were made. I would keep buying them. That's all that's left that I really miss.

A couple of things I've noticed lately that I think were released before I got back into scrapping are Teresa Collins Nine & Co and a collection by Echo Park and I think it was called Simple Life. I'd love to get both of those if I possibly could. So I guess I didn't covet them. I just totally missed out on them.

So so many things! I'm terrible when it comes to jumping on something when it's there and then wanting it once I cant get it anymore. There was a snowman / Christmas line designed by Zoe Pearn for My Mind's Eye that I didn't discover until it was a paper pad at Hobby Lobby or somewhere, and by then I couldn't find any of the other coordinating stuff that went with it.  I used almost every sheet of that paper in 12x12 and bought two or three of the tiny 6x6 matching paper pads when they came out later. I'm hoarding those! |

I stopped scrapping in 2007 and came back to it in 2015. I missed ALL the basic grey lines in that time and would have wanted every single one! I hoarded BG, would never use it so in a way I'm glad I missed out.

The oldest one I remember is the Hambly Screen Prints everyone was using around 2007, I think. I managed to get just a couple of sheets and used every inch! Always wanted more but just couldn't get my hands on it.
I took a break from shopping around 2010-2013 when my LSS's all starting closing and before I really succumbed to on-line ordering beyond kit clubs. There's a few lines from that time I wish I had, especially October Afternoon and Little Yellow Bicycle. I remember seeing and loving some of the LYB papers and always thinking I'd get them someday but never did.

Thank you so much for your offer, but I was able to grab a lot between the warehouse box and my follow-up order to Starlit Studio! I'll let you know if I remember anything I couldn't get a hold of. So nice of you to offer! The Refupeas are the best! |

The Making Memories Embellishment Center. After I finally decided I wanted one, Michael's was carrying their own brand, and the shelves were just a little bit different. I did not want that one. An LSS that I visited occasionally had a NIP one for the longest time at a retail price of $109. I saw it there for years. Finally when I decided I would make them a discounted cash offer (because all they could say was no) The store was closed!!!!  |

The starburst circle punch that Shimelle uses. I think it was a Fiskars one? Martha Stewart has one, but it isn't the same. Do you mean the pinked circle one she uses? If so, Tim Holtz/Sizzix has made a new punch it is called Large Seal Punch. It is NOT large at all it is 1 1/8 inches in diameter, and I think it is basically the same size as the one Shimelle uses. I FINALLY broke down and bought one, and OMG I am glad I did. it is perfect!  You can get it at scrapbook.com... Seal PunchSave |
