What to get...

I have my cart totally loaded and have no idea how to trim it down. I want it all!!! Too bad DH would kill me. So, when narrowing down, how do you decide? I checked out the "what did you get?" thread and it made me even MORE confused!!! :confused:
 
I go based off of what pictures I have at my fingertips to scrap with right then.

Of course, I'm not much help since I haven't checked out yet because I can't freaking decide. Sigh.
 
I just picked what I knew I would use right now or within a week or two. If I hadn't done that I would've spent over 100.00. :(

really wish I had it to spend though
 
I picked up what I knew I could use in the next month based on photos I already have and 2 events I know we are planning to do this month and I know I will be over excited to scrap right away.
 
I got what I knew I could spend without feeling guilty,lol. And, I knew I wanted to get something new next week, whatever it might be, and left that in my pretend budget,lol.
This time I did really well, though i changed my list probably a half dozen times :p I did have a list I made from a thread that'd asked the designers what their fave kits ever were and took notes from that, then scanned the what'd you get thread and it actually helped :)
 
These are some of the things that help me decide!!!

1. Pictures I have taken in the last month (or so).
2. Holidays/events coming up in the next month (xmas, halloween, birthdays, soccer, science fair ect......)
3. Challenges going on for the current month

Hope that helps!!!
 
Good luck picking! If you don't have Lauren's All the Flavors, you should probably get that. It's so beautiful and works well for both boy and girl pages.

Zoe's Cheeky set is big and so fantastic. If you don't have Dani's Ultimate Stitch Collection, I totally recommend that; I use it all the time.

And then really, just check out and don't think about it, lol.
 
Is there anything that is similar to something you already have - similar colors, themes, etc...? If so, you might trim using that standard.

I know how hard it is! I'm staring at my shopping cart right now trying to prioritize a bit.
 
And then really, just check out and don't think about it, lol.

I like you! :wub:

I've narrowed it down quite a bit...I have a few alphas b/c I don't have many that are generic, I have more stitching (my weakness), some cool date stuff, a couple of kits, some random elements...

Ok, maybe I haven't narrowed it down that much.
