Hi, my name is Kate and I collect scrap kits

Not the only one Kate though I have not even gone through mine to know how many I have unused!!! Ummmm maybe I shouldn't ever do that. LOL
 
I just continue to remind myself that my digital scrapping hobby is MUCH MUCH MUCH less money then all the money I use to spend when I was doing rubber stamping/paper scrapping! So even though I have a ton of digital kits I haven't touched yet, I'm still doing way better than I did in the paper world, LOL.
 
I'm in the "not going to count them" "no reason to ruin a good mood" club on this subject. Only in the past 6 months, did I start a not used folder by store. And there are still QUITE A FEW things in each of those folders. Considering I spend most of my free time doing layouts with CT products, I really have no business buying anything else but that does not seem to stop me when I see just the right word art, etc.

Now I feel like I should introduce myself as a digi scrap supply addict.
 
First, this is great that this is a year old thread and Kate is worse off than ever (it means the designers get better every year!).
Second, since I've scrapped 5 pages this year and spent well over 10 times that, yeah you could say I'm in the collector club. :hugs:

Plus these darn sales lure me in...I don't do the points (like I should) so I get desperate and buy during a good sale here, but then I don't scrap because I'm too busy downloading/organizing/petting my new kits. Oh well...when I'm old and gray! :o

And yes once again I bought KCB's entire Christmas collection because I had to, even though I haven't actually scrapped a Christmas page in like 2 years. But they are all so pretty and they go so nicely together as a set...I simply can't say no!

But after heavily investing in my photography this year, I am thinking I'm about to turn a corner on my non-scrapping...I hope. Like PP said...its not the kits that kill me its the memories not scrapped.
 
I have 16 unused SSD kits on my laptop now and around 10 more on my EHD, a few months ago I told myself I wasn't buying them like I used to until I got my unused folder down a lot, and it worked.

I prefer to think of it as having more of a selection, rather than being worse off! :D

You're right, though, the designers totally rocked the last year. Plus, we had several awesome new designers here. I'd better get scrapping or this time next year I could have an even bigger selection of yet-to-be-scrapped-with goodies ;).
 
i have no idea how that happens to you guys, lol. I have used all of my kits at least once, but then again I dont usually create within a kit, I mix stuff up,so i may not have used the whole kit.
 
I organized this morning and tagged previews and it's kind of scary how many have not been used yet. However, looking at them, I've found a couple of patterns:

1) Notoriously bad about not using collaboration kits, same goes for the FWP

2) I've also stopped downloading the freebies because I don't tend to scrap with them

3) I really need to stay away from other shops. I've got some gorgeous kits, but when you can't use them for challenges, they sit.

4) A lot of kits bought to scraplift a specific layout but I don't have pictures for (yet). One of these days I'll get around to posing my kids just so I can finally do that scraplift.

5) I would feel a lot worse if everything weren't purchased during sales or Sweet Rewards.
