Each Friday, I write a post about Minimalist Scrapbooking.
Oh, what a lovely layout. Do you see the stickers in the lower left corner? I am almost positive that I bought those the first year I worked in a scrapbook store (that would be 2003). But today, I am not writing about how old my letter stickers are. The most ridiculous item on my page is that brown cardstock. I made my wedding invitations with that brown cardstock. I needed 12×12 in order to cut out cards, but the excess measured 5×12. I couldn’t just throw out all that beautiful paper. Look at it:
Now, my confession…
I was married in 2005.
Sadly, that is not the worst part.
I have moved this paper not once, not twice, but four times. And that my friends, is why I am taking the minimalist scrapbooking challenge.
What about you? What item in your stash haunts you or taunts you unused?
