Are you a scrapbooker that stamps, or...

I'm curious! This question is to all of you and yes that does include our lurkers!

Do you consider yourself to be:

A. Stricktly a scrapbooker; B. A scrapbooker that also stamps; or C. A stamper that scrapbookes?

Personally I'm a B. I love to scrapbook but I have a love for stamps. I see them as beautiful objects that I must have , just in case I need them to do something sometime. Ask Deb, I'm pretty addicted to owning those beautiful stamps!

B. I'm a scrapbooker that also stamps. Or at least I'm a scrapbooker that would like to also stamp, so I buy a new set everytime I get invited to a Stampin Up party and plan to use them.

I think B applies. I have only a few stamps but would like more and have fun using them, especially to make cards.

You really, really sound like me, Sandy. Could it be because we were born the same day of the year?

I'm sort of a B, I can't resist buying stamps but other than using a date stamp on a tag here and there I haven't actually used any of them.

A hoarder! I do that too with paper clips and binder clips and pens! I just like to get them, I don't really use them! (I really did this when I was working in an office! lol) I don't know why I did this, I just did. I'm finding myself to do that to 12x12 paper too. I'm really trying not to though. I don't use a lot of 'funky' paper. Mainly plain colors and such.. but there are times when I see paper that's just neat and I get it and never use it.

*question: I don't have a lot of space. I have paper holders out in the garage and a 4 drawer cart in my bedroom and a crop in style. I put most of my paper in the crop in style. I don't really think I should have done this because now I don't have room for other things. Should I keep all of the paper in the garage in the holders (which I may bring in and put in my closet.. it's big enough)

I don't have a whole lot of organization with my stuff.

Thanks!

I am stamper who turned to scrapbooking. (answer C) I have been stamping for over 15 years and decided scrapbooking (about 5 years ago) was a way to keep my creations, rather than mailing them away. Then I became obsessed with scrapbooking (answer B). I have hundreds of stamps that I use in my scrapbooks. I still love to make cards, just not as many because scrapbooking takes up much of my crafting time!

So, now I am a "B"

B or C. I'm a papercrafter. :-) I scrapbook, and I also stamp, but so far I haven't used stamping on a scrapbook layout. I mostly use stamps to make cards and bookmarks. I started as a stamper, then got interested in scrapbooking because of this group.

I think I would have to call myself A - strictly a scrapbooker - though I do make a lot of cards too (but rarely using stamps). I have some alphabet and simple ornamental stamps that I use on layouts and cards, but I don't really have many stamps (yet!).

Saying that, I love the effect of artistic stamping and it is definitely something I would like to do more of in the future. I especially would love to be able to make beautiful artistic collages using stamping and other techniques and materials.

I have so much paper that I don't know what I have anymore. Last guestimate was about 3000 sheets.

I store my paper that isn't in blocks in craft holders according to color, type of print, holiday etc.....at least that was the plan before I became addicted. I put the holders clear bins, right now I have 3 very large ones filled, 2 with paper and one with cardstock. Ther weird thing is I have to force myself to use paper, I like simple cardstock layouts the best.

I am pretty organized because I have a room just to scrap in. I bought some inexpensive cabinets and 2 pantries to hold my stuff and I had lots of 3 drawer carts and plastic storage containers. I am rearranging it all right now because I bought another sewing machine and I want to improve the work flow. I want to have a laminate counter attached to the wall so I can set up stations to use various tools.

I am learning to limit myself by asking myself where I am going to put whatever it is that I just have to have and making myself use what I already have as much as possible.

I'm a "B". Though I'm getting more into stamping, on layouts as well as cards. I'm still discovering how much can be done with stamps!

I'm an A. I see stamps as a tool. I will use one if I see it as an appropriate accent. I can't justify buying a stamp that I'm only going to use once. I have acquired about a dozen stamps, mainly via my children. I've *tried* to buy stamps, but never found one that screams, oooh! buy me! Instead, I look and then go buy adhesive. :-)

I would say I am a B. I started off scrapbooking first, then discovered what fun stamping is. I need to incorporate more stamping into my scrapbooking. Most of my stamping right now is for cards.
