It is a VERY big problem. I can not stop using scraps. I get a color combination or a new paper combination and I just get stuck. I keep going back to it until it is all gone. Here let me show you my newest examples of this problem. I first used this paisley and blue combination here. Then I used it here. And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this layout. There are not many times when I finish that I just love something the way I do this one. The scraps are still on my desk and so I made:
(1) My verse notebook for the year. I am a participant in Beth Moore's blog scripture memory challenge with several women from my church.
(2) a notebook for a friend
(3) a necklace for my Etsy store
(4) My first page for an ABC scripture challenge that I am doing with Patter Cross . I have loved her challenges/studies in the past but this is the first one that I am actually going to do start to finish. I have read her posts in the past but I really want to complete this for my table in my kitchen. I still have to add the title. I ran out of chocolate card stock. My title is waiting for my next trip to Hobby Lobby.
And, Here is the thing that just cracks me up about this paper. It is from my FAVORITE paper pack. I think I got this five years ago. I still keep going back to this one package of paper. I LOVE my mind's eye. I think it was called Magnolia.

I think using something until it's gone is fantastic!! I feel so guilty when I toss scrap that can be used. Keep on using those bits and pieces! Love your projects, too!
You've got a GOOD problem! Using up scraps makes room for new stuff! ;)

Thanks ladies!
