ARRRRGGGHH! WHY do you guys make me DO this!
 
I really should start a list of all the things I've bought because I've seen a great card here or "heard" about it here. In the past month alone let's see:
-Crop-a-Dile
-Cuttlebug folders out the wazoooo
-Big Shot to use my Fiskars templates (& Cuttlebug stuff!)
-Karen Foster snap stamps because I LOVE the ease and straight lines!
-12 Bella babes
And now I need to stop listing or I may scare myself MORE! Hee, hee! It's amazing how you'll see something on here and think that "If I JUST get THAT then I'll have everything I need to make great cards and scrapbook pages!"

Thankfully I have a VERY supportive DH that makes good money, and he loves to see me get all excited over my new toys and see what I make, etc. And my friends all appreciate that I'm a very good girl at sharing my toys! Sometimes I feel like
http://www.millan.net/minimations/sm...ppetsmiley.gifbut it's okay because I'm always happy when UPS or USPS or FedEX arrives @ my door! And I'm always like this:
http://www.millan.net/minimations/smileys/coloreyes.gifwhen I'm here looking at all the great things you ladies create! So WTH! and Thank You for all the enabling!

I'm in the same boat. I was enabled into getting:

An ATG Gun with a ton of refills
cuttlebug folders and dies (I don't even have a die cut machine yet, had to borrow one from my cousin)
mega & giga oval scalloped punches
Fluffles

I looked at the Bellas and determined that I could pass on them for now. There are some cute cards in the gallery but at this time, just not my style. All the CHA sneak peaks are going to break the bank again when the new cuttlebug stuff comes out, I JUST KNOW IT! I'm trying to put the blinders on.
Not much sucess but TRYING!

I hear ya loud & clear! I haven't bought the ATG gun.............yet, but it's on my list.

Cuttlebug & tons of embossing folders - YES
Giga, mega, etc. punches in various styles - YES
Fluffles - many - YES
Primas - YES
Ribbon - Probably enough to wrap around my house a few dozen times!

I haven't caved in on the clear stamps yet so no Bellas for me - but they are cute stamps. I am sure I will succumb to clear/unmounted stamps soon enough. LOL

Anne,
You DO know that the Bellas are NOT clear stamps, right? They are high quality RUBBER! They ARE unmounted, but you can just stick them with double stick tape to the back of any of your wood mounts! Hee, hee! Watch me enable Anne!

Oh no - they are rubbah??? - I don't know why I thought they were clear. Well DARN IT!!! You are a bad girl for telling me that!! LOL :mrgreen:

Open wallet - watch money just fly out into stamping land!!!

momis mama 02-01-2007 07:02 AM

you girls are killin' me. LOL
the more i read the more dollar signs i see. i have a small business that had better turn into a big business to fund this addiction of mine. have a great day girls!

tputerbaugh 02-01-2007 07:13 AM

Okay I'll jump in. I bought the cuttlebug (JoAnn's $40.00) and alphabet again 50% off coupon so $40.00. I also bough a Giga oval scalloped punch, along with the ribbon at Costco and the ribbon on sale on the net. Oh, yeah, several cuttlebug die cuts and embossing folders.

My DH is a computer geek (very brilliant) and to help me with photo's and scrapbooking he just bought me Adobe Photo Elements 5.0 (again $50.00). But this program is a lot to handle, I'm okay with the computer, but there's so much you can do with this program. I took my 16 year old daughter out of a picture and put her into another picture, what fun. So far that's all I can do.

Now my husband is an enabler!:confused:

Thorvall 02-01-2007 07:47 AM

As I sit here reading all your list guess what I'm doing? You know it I'm making a list of stuff to "check out" next time I'm at Micheal or JoAnns. That might be later today. You guys are killing me.
Thanks for all the great ideas!

Joan B 02-01-2007 07:58 AM

Gee, I feel sorry for you guys with no self control.

You are actually all making me feel a little better. In the month of January the only enabling I fell for was the cuttlebug and a bunch of dies and folders. Oh and a $50 sell-a-bration order. No bellas, no ribbon, no punches, no crop-o-dile. I guess I should add a big "YET" to all of this because who knows when I will start obsessing about something you guys all have. And it is a new month!

Well since coming to this site on adaily basis, I have bought the following:

5 bellas
1 cuttlebug w/ 40% coupon
3 only CB folder available @ Mike's
6 more cb folders from allthatscraps.com
$100. worth of SU stuff so I can get the SAB sets.

StampinFrenzy 02-01-2007 02:14 PM

oh man, I can't believe I'm going to ask this but what are Fluffles?? And what's this about Karen Foster snap stamps?!?!? See, I knew if I poked around here too much I'd end up dumping my $$ into more stuff! ARGH!!! I just threw down $100 on prima flowers, $100 on bellas and lord knows that 50% off coupon that just landed in my hands for JoAnn's will be happily spent on Cuttlebug alphabets this weekend. LOL :p

Skittl1321 02-01-2007 02:21 PM

SCS has opened my eyes to much of the stamping world.

Because of them it I have a:
-crop a dile
-wire cube storage system
-designer paper
-ultra thick embossing enamel
-SU classic markers
-SU classic spots
-mono multi glue
-stampin' around wheels
-microbeads
-clear buttons
-RIBBON!
-BRADS!
-colored staples
-stickles
-slit punch (what do I do with this?)
-2 tag punches
-Kai scissors

But the biggest of all- my TAC demoship. I would have never heard of the Angel Company without SCS- and I'm so glad I did!

My wish list is even longer. Does that mean I have some self control, or just no money?

Aimee30 02-01-2007 02:23 PM

I'm in too..

cuttlebug a2 folders
bellas
twinkling h2o

I started here for January:
$100 SU order for SAB sets
$75 2 orders of Cuttlebug Embossing Folders and 2 & 3" other sets from AllThatScraps.com and JKCrafts.com
$40 at Marco's papers for paper piercing stuff, embossing glitter, etc.
$20-30 at Joann's for foamies for kids projects for Girls Scouts and school projects
$20 - Sizzix converters and dies

Friday & Saturday night Stampin' - priceless

Wow, that looks like it has potential to be a great product! I just played with a friend's Cricut which was fun, but I can't rationalize buying it for myself. Maybe I can rationalize getting a Slice? :D

Oh yeah, add me to the list of enabled ones: Cuttlebug, Prismacolor pencils, Primas, Gamsol, stumps, Fluffles stamps, SU craft pads, markers, cardstock, stamps, Hodgepodge Hardware, Staz-on, transparencies, Stickles, Scallop Punches, Pampered Chef Toolturn, wire cube shelving from Target, Iridescent Ice embossing powder, paper piercing mat pack, White Signo Gel Pen, SUInk stamp pad storage unit, SU background stamps, dotted organdy ribbon, Micron Pigma pens, Basic Grey paper, Daisy D's Attic Heirlooms paper, Michaels dollar stamps, chipboard shapes. I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting!

It says the cost of "1 or 2 alphabet die cut sets"- so $150-$200?

stagccva 02-01-2007 04:34 PM

Yeah, I let you guys talk me into everything...but at least I can honestly tell my DH it is all your fault!

Annek 02-01-2007 04:36 PM

FLUFFLES!

Fluffles is the most adorable cat stamp!! Here's a link to a card (not mine) that has Fluffles in it. Isn't he cute???!?!? The card rocks too!!!

http:////www.splitcoaststampers.com/...25&si=fluffles

Search Fluffles on ATRS & you'll find lots to choose from.

wilko_scramps 02-01-2007 07:51 PM

I was enabled to buy:

Crop-A-Dile
Ribbons
Eyelets
Rivets/snaps
Giga punches
Stickles
Variety of stamp sets
Decorative papers (NEVER used them before SCS)
Shaped eyelets
Clips
...and more.

Most of all, though, you dear folks have enabled me to be a SU DEMO!

jailbirdstamper 02-01-2007 07:55 PM

oh yeah I'm in serious trouble... all because of SCS . I gave DH my tax deductible receipts box but all my """purchases""" receipts were in the bottom and I forgot to remove them.... boy did I get a "LOOK".... luckily the SU order form doesn't show a total when it's shipped to you! Anyway ... this is all your fault and I want your numbers so DH can call you!
