I can freely admit here and now that I do indeed suffer from scrap-itis. This affliction turns seemingly sane women into ravenous, insatiable crafters who cannot control their need for more and more supplies.
Over the years I have accumulated an almost embarrassing amount of crafting supplies. I just cannot seem to get enough. There is always something new being released or something I just don't have that I just can't live without. I am fortunate to be married to a man who knows I have this problem and yet he still loves and accepts me. He may not understand my explanations for all my purchases but he doesn't stand in my way - mostly out of fear of what I could be capable of should he get between me and that new punch.
I suppose there are worse things I could be obsessive about and much worse things I could invest my money in so for those reasons I have learned to live with my addiction. I honour it and give it its proper due. Being a scrap-addict is something I now fully embrace and refuse to be ashamed of. It makes me happy and feeds my soul.
So do not fret friends if you find yourself in a long checkout line with your arms full and your mouth foaming with excitement - for you have just joined a prestigious group of fellow crafters.
Until next time.............
