Addicted and don't know what to do

[MelissaS]

OK, Here is my problem. I have become so addicted to digital scrapbooking that I do not want to go back to the "old fashioned" way. What in the world do I do with all of my paper crafts and scrapbook material? Has anyone had this problem? I know it is a crazy question, but I feel so guilty about all the unused stuff I have in my craft room.

Thankyou Margie. That is a great idea. I am so glad I am not the only one!

you can also make hybrid pages by adhering some of your fun stuff to your printed layouts, or printing partial digi layouts and placing on "real" background paper. have fun, be creative, sell it if you want to, it's all good!

some people donate it to crops, give to to friends or grandkids, save it to make cards. i just felt too bad about having it and not using it, so i figured i'd clean out a room and make some cash! :D

I think someone started a thread on this last year sometime, and there were lots of ideas posted: let the kids use the paper stuff, donate to charities or schools, etc. I know in my area (northwest FL) some organizations are still collecting scrapbooking gear and disposable cameras for people who lost all their photos/albums in Hurricane Katrina.

My plan is to donate my stuff to my uniformed friends who are not in the know yet, and who are still paper-scrapping. Those silly girls!

Actually, I'm planning some hybrid pages like Emma was talking about to scrap Christmas pageant programs, graduation announcements, birthday cards, etc. So I'm not ready to dump it all yet.

I'm selling mine on eBay, but having trouble getting it all organized to get it listed. Maybe I should just dump it in a box and take what I can get. Is that what you did Margie?

I sold all my paper stuff!

Speaking as a girl scout leader I know your local troop leaders would love the stuff. You can find your local councils in the phone book.
