an ATG gun, a Cuttlebug, several Paper Trey sets, several scallop punches, several round punches, Ultra Clean, went completely unmounted and all that goes with that, Primas, Colluzzle system, ribbons from online ribbon sources, Bazille, Bazille Bling, various brands of paper, Palette inks, Fun Flock, and probably a million other accessories.
What accessories (etc.) do you have as a direct result of this board?
Giga scallop oval and square...coluzzle....stazon out the wazoo...cuttlebug embossing folders...a zillion stamps....papertrey sets...bellas....shouldd I keep going or would you like me to just post a photo of my stamp room? ;)
Oooh, I went out and got a Cuttlebug! (For 40% off at Michael's - I really felt like I'd scored!) And I recently ordered some stamp sets just because of some of the beautiful creations that some of you very talented ladies have so graciously uploaded onto the galleries!
This card making is rather addictive, isn't it?

I should just post a copy of my bank statement!!!!!
Yikes, I think not....that would scare even myself. I am just going to live in my little stampin space in pure bliss!
I figure it is cheaper than having a shoe & purse fetish!

-My Big Kick
-Five CB alphas and a small assortment of other dies
-Six snap-together boxes from Target's dollar spot for storage of aforementioned CB dies
-Rhonna Farrer swirls and flourishes sets (thanks JulieHRR!)
-a whole lot of stamps from CHF and VLVS
-some SU sets too!
I think almost everything I buy scrapbooking/cardmaking wise can be attributed to this site in some form or fashion.

I've been here since '04 - mat board for journals, paint cans, prismacolors & gamsol, ribbons, new can opener (for the little tab cans that you can glue the lids back on), e600, clear marbles,a huge stack of composition notebooks, Sharpies (anyone remember how excited we were to find all those new colors?!), tiles, candles, of course the cuttlebug & accessories, every target dollar find!, on and on. STAMPS, stamps, stamps! Crop-a-dile. Brads, eyelets, paper piercer, totes, cropper hopper drawers.
Oh, forgot about the bind it all, and going unmounted, too like housefan. I'm amazed when I take time to think about it, how SCS has totally changed my style of stamping and the things that I use to stamp.
A giant box of stuff hidden in my closet to alter one day! (Shhhhh -- don't tell my husband!) Every Target Dollar spot bargain - including a pretty big stash of mailboxes that I bought just because they were there! (Yes, I WILL use them next year when I'm not quite so newly postpartum in February!) . . .
Oh, and I guess the biggest expense of all - my SU starter kit! I might not have ever signed up if it weren't for SCS and now I'm so happy I did!
Oh the stark honesty is so sad,but you have to love tried and true tools and what nots,I always remember it is my unwritten job to be first a consumer prior to being oh so poor,I love PB&J

So, does anyone here think that it is wrong, that I am mentally shopping off your lists of enabled items? I have been able to check off many of your items, except the Cuttlebug ~ I use the folders in my Sizzex & I also own the Wishblade...
Hmm, I am noticing Gamisol mentioned a few times. I guess I need that!!

i don't really know exactly what it is either... but they are all talking about it- so i am pretty sure you need it too. i'll prolly be adding it to my list too.
This site is so great....but I too have spent a lot of money as a result. My cards are much better for it too!!!
Prismacolor pencils, scalloped punches, bellas, ribbon shares from several blogs, Tombow Mono Multi glue (the best!), stickles, Crop-a-dile, Karen Foster snap stamps and more SU products than I ever would have bought otherwise. Isn't it fun??
Cuttlebug! I'm really limited in what I have to spend on stamping so that, and various die cuts, embossing folders, etc (my first set of alphabets is on its way!) is pretty much it. Oh yeah, and STICKLES! I love sparkle in my cards but hate the glitter mess! Hm..... where did I put those? I bought them over a week ago and haven't even used them yet!

pretty much everything I own now....... I use SCS as my major form of buying research! If its not raved about- I don't buy it, if the online store isn't mentioned- I don't buy from them. WOW, just realized how much power SCS has over me ;) lol
Regarding the Gamsol, I think that it is a type of odorless mineral spirits or solvent - apparently it is even more odorless than the terpenoid types you can purchase at a hardware store. I know that it is used with regular (not water-soluble or watercolor) Prismacolor pencils and blending stumps in order to get a watercolor effect. I've never tried it - yet - but I will!
I think that the Gamsol and pencil combo produces a brighter, smoother look, but having never tried it, I don't know for certain.
I would love to see a study done by someone on here with a image colored with Gamsol, Prismacolor pencils, and blending stumps versus the same image done with watercolor Prismacolors & a watercolor brush. Anyone up to the challenge?

Gamsol is odorless mineral spirits used for blending your prisma colored pencils.
Cropodile, ATG Gun, Bind it All, scallped oval, circle and sqaure punches (will probably get the rectangle and heart before it's all said and done), primas, cuttlebug folders, Prismacolor pencils, lunch tins, altoid tins, Papertrey stamps, Ultra Clean, Simple Green, stickles, tombow mono multi... My list could keep going... But I love it all, and look forward everyday to the new "must have!"
I'm quite new here, but I ordered the Perfect Layers from QVC the other night after seeing an entire thread about them. I'm sure I'll be getting more things though - printed designer papers are grabbing my attention, I've never used printed papers in my cards before.

Ah, so you hide stuff from your husband too! I was just looking in my closet a few minutes ago at stuff that I bought to be altered. Now that I've cleared everyone out of the house for the next few hours its time to play. I told my husband I needed to run some erands and do a ton of laundry. What a bunch of BS!!! It worked though. Time to have some fun.
Thanks to SCS, I now own----
