I refuse to hoard anymore cool stuff! I have gotten into the habit of holding on to anything that I like. I was afraid that if I used it, it would be gone. BUT! It seems like there is always something new and cool that I could buy in place of 3 packages of the same item. And, I could always use the extra room in my scrap area that I am hoarding items that are outdated! SO, today I got my free Basic Grey brads that I won on a blog and you WILL be seeing them in the near future!

good for you! Lately I feel like I've only been using my cool new stuff, and everything else just sits there getting older and older.

I am thinking of taking one old thing out of my stash and using it on every card I make for like a week or until it's gone. Then I will probably decide that I love it! LOL

That sounds like a great idea - I have way too much a stash and I often get overwhelmed when I try to scrap - I need to start using my stuff and not hoarding it. Cards would be a great way to use up some odds and ends. Of course I could make cards for years and still have a huge stash LOL. I need out of my rut and need to start scrapping again.

Definately a great idea! I need to get back into it. I have been slacking the last couple of weeks....or months.

Well while blog surfing I caught this blog. Use It! It is for us hoarders that need to use up our supplies. you even win prizes for the challenges!
