...stamps. I used to be a stamper way back in the day and had hundreds. Many of them have been purged due to lack of use or change of style. I had a manageable number and I was set. But now they have layered stamps and really detailed stamps and lovely stamp sets and on and on. Besides, I have a TH stamping platform so stamping has become efficient and easy (she said in justification).
What do do you still buy even though you have plenty?

I'm a fairly simple scrapper. I'd say paper. I have a long list of stamps I want to buy because of the TH platform.

Yep, me too, except I didn't purge nearly enough of them. But now with the layering sets. I want them all. No coloring for depth, all easy peasy with a stamping platform. I keep putting hundreds of $$ of stamps in various carts and then removing them. I don't need them, I don't need them, I don't them. Maybe someday I'll believe that.

Stamps, although I am pickier than I used to be. I no longer buy every stamp that I like. I think hard about whether or not I am likely to use it.
Dies. I really don't need any more, but I do still buy a few here and there.
Patterned papers. Yup, definitely another weakness. Cardstock, too.
I tend to make my own embellishments with my stamps, dies, and papers, so that does eliminate some temptation.

I hear you. I really try to be selective about what I buy now, but sometimes things jump in my cart. I gave away a decent amount of things last year and among the stuff was some super cute Hawaiian themed paper that I thought I would never use. Guess what I need now? The paper.

oh paper for sure. when i first realized scrapbooking was "a thing" probably sometime in 2000, i resisted getting involved because i knew i'd just buy all the pretty papers. and i was right glad i stopped resisting though!

I just keep buying and buying. Which wouldn't be bad if I ever actually made something. But, I'm going to Scrapbook Generations We Create and I've promised myself I will come home with something completed! All that good creative energy swirling around me ought to help.

I have two separate hobbies. One is making stuff. The other is buying stuff. Two hobbies works for me.

Nuvos I have over 100 bottles. To be fair, I do use them a lot but I basically have a core set of colours I use the most and I definitely have bottles I never touch. I also know, if they come out with more colours I will buy them immediately.

I keep buying stamps, too. And even though I have probably hundreds of floral stamps, I always default back to buying more floral stamps. There's always a slight variation or a different flower to make great cards with. I'm going to branch out and start making ephemera for my scrap pages with them, especially now that I have my Scan-N-Cut.
I do use my stamps and make a lot of cards, but I still have dozens of unused ones waiting in line for their turn. I could make cards for several years without having to buy more stamps.
I did manage to stop myself from buying more patterned paper. I love it so much but I wasn't using it up enough. I still have tons.

I have nearly stopped buying paper, as I haven’t made a LO in a couple of years. But I make and sell many many cards, so stamps and dies are my new weakness. I have a serious Ali Express habit.
