I don't think I've ever been a hoarder, but I do have loads of stash (how does that work?) If it's new and i love it I just can't wait to chop into those papers, and throw as much stash at a page as possible (don't do minimal!) I really don't get 'paper stroking', I'd rather have lovely papers in my scrapbooks as part of a page, than getting dog-eared in my stash.

One of the reasons i've been enjoying the simple recipes and Completely Different challenges is that they force me to search through my stash and find thing's i'd forgotten i had and get that old stuff used!

When I was out of work a while ago I was much better at not shopping and just chopping those lovely papers that had been hanging about for a bit. Now I'm working again I have slipped into my old habits of being far too easily tempted. Sadly it looks like OH will be out of work soon, so I will have to reign it in again... or maybe I should be spending now!
