Hello Blog Peeps
Sometimes I wonder about me! What exactly is wrong with me?
I can remember receiving Christmas presents every year as a child. I can remember receiving birthday presents too. It's not like I didn't get ANYTHING as a child.
We didn't have a whole lot of money but I always got presents as a child.
I was not neglected or abused or mistreated in any way as a child but yet I think I have a problem. Something went awry somewhere.
My problem is this--I just can't seem to throw away paper scraps. At times, trying to fight this obsession, I force myself to throw some away but the feelings of remorse and regret afterwards are really just not worth it.
It's hard to think of a paper scrap that I won't need for some future project, ya know?
So. . . here are my paper scraps--all sorted by color. So many times, I can come up with a card just using my scraps! Gosh, that's such a rush. Too bad drug companies can't bottle that feeling into a powder so we can snort it whenever we stampers need a high!
Yes yes, some of the drawers are a mixture of various colors--take a look at the drawer marked "green"! Hmmmm, doesn't look all that green does it? This just proves that my "out-of-control" obsessions are REALLY out of control!
Way back when, I had all my scraps in ONE container. To find a particular color of scrap, I would have to go through ALL my scraps! Uggggg! I ended up NOT using them at all.
This way, I always go to my scrap drawers first, instead of cutting a whole sheet of paper each time.
Think about starting a system like this. It doesn't have to be drawers. You can use one of those accordion filing system for bills/receipts--you know what I mean right?
Sort your scraps. Use your scraps. And have more fun creating the green way!
