I have started scrapbooking regularly again and am determined to use up lots of my old stuff! This weekend I used brads on 2 layouts- still love them. I used some tiny Prima flowers (from the bottle) and used stickles for the centers. I am working my way through my Silhouette library and making embellishments to match layouts. Also used some of my old Making Memories rub on letters - STILL GOOD! but sadly will soon be running out of vowels. ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/mYSUyHtG9Jrcmm_ydVcK.jpg) I am thinking of photographing all the letters and then recreating the vowels with a good black pen- will update if this works. After reading this thread I am going to ink some edges again and get out my stash of vellum. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg) Corinne

Oh and 99% of the time my photos must be matted! That's me. I also do multiple photos, two page layouts. Sometimes I ink things. I stamp, so the two kind of go together. I use whatever I like that seems to work with my photos, whether trendy or not.

Sticker sneeze! Popped into my head before I even saw the list of suggestions, haha!

Two page layouts with multiple photos, cardstock for backgrounds and matting with my Perfect Layers tool.

Scrapbooking. Sorry, I had to. I see people saying they're still doing something they did in 2012 and I'm over here like I was doing that in 2005 and I think it's all relative! I actually never used to use stickers, now I'm sneezing those things all over the place!

Two page layouts, all photos matted, paper piecings with chalked edges and {GASP!} paper dolls! And tags on almost every layout.

My favorite old technique is paper piecing. I still love my decorative scissors. I still do use eyelets, brads, ribbons, flowers, all those pretties.

I still use my Quickutz alphabets! I never run out of letters and the color always matches because I use the coordinating cardstock that comes with the kit. I even buy more cardstock sometimes if I know it's going to be used for a title that I cut out. I do have a Cameo, but nothing looks as clean and crisp as a die-cut letter! I still love my Quickutz, too.

Yep, 2 page layouts and lots of photos (not every layout, but plenty!)
Lately I have been rocking the Glubers and making those accordion folded paper rosette embellishments. Remember those? I haven't done those for so long but they are kind of fun and it is fun to get back to DIYing embellishments.

Though lately I am a pocket page album girl, I still ink edges and mat photos/titles. Need to dig out my chalks to do edges. Fun thread!

I really like tearing paper ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg) . I also am still pretty fond of my border punches.

Wow, I am guilty of almost all of the above. I love my Coluzzle! I find it so much easier to use when I want just part of a shape cut out (half an oval, for example). I would not give up my die cutter, but I still use the Coluzzle. I used Waxy Flax on a couple of cards recently. I was so glad I still had some! ETA I have used chalks a lot recently - applied with a cotton swab, they are an easy way to color and/or highlight embossed images. I also still use them to color torn paper edges. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/Q_m8lDOvc_3Le3r1GKdf.jpg)
