I have to stop taking vacations...

...until I'm done scrapbooking the ones I've been on!
I just looked at my "travel" papers and stickers -- I have the stuff for Niagara Falls (this year), Chicago (last Oct), Puerto Rico (our honeymoon in '96!) and several other trips.
But Disney is probably the worst. It just climbs into my shopping cart. I'm sure I'm not the only one, though.
How many more Disney trips can you take before you use up all your scrapbooking stuff?

I COMPLETELY know what you mean! I am years behind in scrapping, Disney trips and otherwise. "Stuff" just jumps into my cart when I go into craft/scrapbook stores though . . . I can't help it.

I have already started buying stuff to scrap our big move cross country next year . . . and we aren't even going anywhere until mid-to-late June!

I really could stop buying any scrapping stuff, as much as I have.

LOL I was just picturing all the Disney stuff jumping off the shelves and crawling into your cart! With the Disney stuff I own (including my Disney Cricut cartridges), my future great grandchildren could probably go to WDW and not have to buy anything for scrapbooking their trips!

I've got so many Disney stickers that I should never buy another one! Luckily I have about 4 trips to scrap, but I bet I won't use them all even then.

I am still using stuff for my Disney scrapbook that I bought 5 years ago, but that doesn't stop me from buying more.

I so know what you mean! I felt like that earlier this year, as I was soooo far behind - I'm glad we're doing another Disney Christmas trip in December, as maybe then I can use up all the Disney Christmas paper I have!

I have a huge suitcase of just disney supplies and yesterday I found more hiding in a cupboard with the 2008 trip momentos...add that to the 39 Creative Memories albums I have that are not OPENED yet and I have one very unhappy DH who thinks I spend too much on my hobby.
PS The suitcase wheels are broken and DH wanted to throw it away but I told him it was full. He wasn't happy! Wonder what's gonna happen when he finds out I just placed a CM order AND an online order with Scrap the World?

I know what you mean. I'm so far behind, I'll never get caught up. All that cute Disney stuff just jumps in my cart to.

OMG! I have friends! I thought I was the only one who was terribly behind on her scrapbooking. We go to our camp every weekend in the summer so I NEVER scrap over the summer and only have the late fall, winter and early spring. This past spring I finished my album from Disney 2003. I still have Dsney 2005, Vegas 2005, Cruise 2005, Disney Feb 2007, Disney Aug 2007, Disney 2008 and Disney 2009! Plus I wanted to do an album with all the 8x10's from DD over the years (she's 10 now!). Good lord when you write it all down it's a lot!!

Hopefully eveyrone gets back on track and we can all do some scrapping and make a dent in what we need to do!

Hee! Me, too! I have so much Disney stuff for scrapping & no trip for probably two years. Maybe I should just book a trip . . . I mean I don't want to be wasteful or anything.

I definitely think you should book a trip! It would be the the "environmentally friendly" thing to do!
