and she made the comment that she is not going to buy anymore paper till she uses what she has.

I said I am doing this too.

So ... does anyone else want to do this with us? I have no idea how serious she was but I am dead serious. I really need to use what i have ... I have sheets after sheets after sheets ... so I am not going to buy anymore paper until I use up what I have and that is that.

Who wants to do this challenge with me???? I'm more apt to do it if I have to report back to someone :).

I probably don't have as much pp as many of you, but I've really been trying not to even look at it anymore as well as I really prefer to make my own background papers whenever possible. I'll play!:)

I've been pretty good lately not buying too much paper - something has to really catch my eye for me to buy it (of course I'm not so good at not buying stamps!)

I want to get in on this challenge. It is a sin how much paper I have in my closet. Of course to stick to the challenge I now need to find a 10 step program -lol.

I am up for the challenge. My reward if I meet the challenge is that I can buy more paper. (hippee lets get started)

I've tried this before and it was a no go! I've cut WAY back on buying the pp, but I'm beyond help now.

Don't think I can do it.... :(

I need a star for my forehead: I went to the lss on the way home from picking up dd & didn't even LOOK at the PP. Of course, she confirmed that the new BG was not in :) She doesn't carry SEI paper so, I'm safe there

It seems like I always need another color and while looking see some I just have to have but the supply is rediculous now. I will try very hard since I still have all that holiday paper from last year that I bought on sale. JoAnn:(

Can we have a second version? I could agree not to buy pattern paper but I am seriously low on cardstock, I only have strange ugly colors... I don't think I can keep making cards if I don't stock up on cardstock.

But I don't need any pattern paper, it's discusting how much I have.

then its time to get more. So yes Erin you have "permission" to go buy some new beautiful colors :). Just no patterned paper!!!

I also think if anyone needs to buy some for their Christmas/holiday cards then that's ok too. I mean it is right before the holidays and all, so that would be perfectly fine too.

I went to Target and looked at the paper but bought none so that's good :).

Well, Sherri says I can buy C'mas if I need it......Right. I'm justified in buy C'mas paper. Actually, I really don't have that much c'mas themed pp. It's EVERYTHING else I have!! I have so much Chatterbox & I never even think to use it for anything anymore. I also will NEVER have enough cardstock. I blow thru that so fast. I fully intend to purch cardstock when I see fit!

There is no possible way that I could use all of the pp that I have! Can we give it away or loan it to someone?? :) I will seriously try. Maybe I can say that I won't buy any for let's say a month. I don't know if I can commit to longer then that! Geez' you have to come up with a hard challenge! :)
