She's at it again!

Yes, I've been at it again...cleaning out my scrapbook closet, that is! One of my resolutions/goals this year is to simplify life. Get rid of stuff and commitments I don't need and keep or even add what I do need.

You know we all have stuff we hold on to for "some day" and more often than not, "some day" never does come.

For instance, I thought, "Some day I will sit down and make a bunch of 6 x 6 mini scrapbooks." I also thought, "Some day I will use the 12 x 12 albums that are just sitting on my shelf." And then I also thought, "Some day I will actually get rid of all this stuff I don't use!"

Well, the last "some day" came on Sunday and I listed a bunch of stuff on eBay for $0.99. Yep, not even $1 for this stuff I have to get out of my house and out of my life!

Clutter, even fun scrapbook clutter, can really stress me out sometimes. I almost look at my scrapbook armoire and wonder if I really do need all this. I did say "almost!"

So, my question of the week ties in to my eBay auctions. "What kind of scrapbook stuff are YOU holding on to for 'some day'?"

Just leave your comments and then head over to eBay to get a steal of a deal on some of my stuff. Oh, and if you win one of my auctions, let me know you're a newsletter subscriber and I'll throw in a little surprise! ;o)

P.S. As I was preparing the newsletter to send, I thought, "You know, I should ask my subscribers if they enjoy doing altered projects!" What I mean by altered is like those cute altered paint cans or decorative composition books or wall decor. So, I am bucking tradition and asking you a SECOND question this week. Don't freak out. I'm not going to do this on a regular basis. Just let me know how "altered" you are!
