SCS is Harmful to your health... your FINANCIAL health!!
Aside from the tons of stamp sets I've *had* to buy because I've seen them used in amazing ways, I am now trying to figure out how to arrange money so I can get both a ton of Bella stamps (and all the blocks, cling, etc as I don't have any unmounteds...YET) but now all you people with that darn Cuttlebug!! I'm seeing card after card in the gallery and I just HAVE to have it!!
I suppose I can sit it next to my Cricut that I've used about 5 times... (not out of lack of desire or inspiration but simply because of a lack of time) *sigh*

LOL - I hear ya! I looked at my stamp room the other night & kept thinking that I really don't want to know how much I've spent on this stuff over the past 3 years. :mrgreen:
Guess it could be worse - at least my 'addiction' has something to show for itself.
I know what you mean. I just found the Bella thread and checked out the website. I haven't succumbed yet, but I see it looming around the corner! I just got an order of five Cuttlebug embossing folders and a die. My wallet is EMPTY!
Totally agree...and when you go "a little overboard" it's not good for your physical health when you get "the look" from your husband! LOL
my DH just wonders where all this stuff comes from... but he does love what i make!! and he really likes the little notes i make and leave for him to find

I used to keep my receipts from stamping stuff separate so that I could keep up with how much I'd spent...I quit doing that very soon after I started. :rolleyes:
And if you lived closer, I'd let you borrow my Cuttlebug! I love that thing!!!
Oh, and what's up with your avatar???? I don't get it. :???:

hehehehe... the avatar is a little joke. It's a picture of a toy Hydra. Ya know, each time you chop off one head another one grows back...
Yup, I'm definitely gonna have to get a Cuttlebug..... I made the mistake of checking it out online and all the dies you can get with it... WHY?!?! WHY do I look at these things?? Just like that Bella stamps thread...

My Cuttlebug arrives tomorrow and I simply cannot wait!! I'm participating in a Bella card swap which made me HAVE to buy the Cuttlebug because of all the wonderful ideas and then I decided I NEEDED more Bellas and now I'm hosting my own Bella card swap (hint: if you'd like to join). If you absolutely cannot live without a Cuttlebug - Crazy Scraps (crazyscraps.com) has them on sale for $59.99 - best price I've seen so far.

ok I held out on the cuttlebug.....and then finally sold a bunch of old books on amazon.com and bought it and just got six more folders! I love this little machine - for me, it gives that extra something my cards seem to be missing. So find some stuff to sell and let the bug bite!

MINE CAME TODAY!!! My bug and I are best friends already and I've only known it for 10 minutes! I need to sell books, stamps (not my own) and whatever else to earn money for these embossing folders! I have them totally justified, too. I suffer from conditions that prevent me from writing for very long, embossing and basically just any prolonged use of my hands. Embossing really hurts - so medically I NEED this machine. LMAO!!

That works for me! By that reasoning, I think your medical insurance should pay for it!! ;)

No, you think?! I recently signed up to be a demo with SU and realized that I'm going to need some product organizers. Sooo, I just went shopping on KMA and spent the money I was going to use on more SU products. Oi! I need all the Tote-ally Cool tote sizes, the AMM matching tote, the AMM stacker (filled), and all the numerous embellies and tools I bought because I *needed them for upcoming swaps*. *whimper*
